Just to be clear, for those wondering what an EYELID LESION is it's like a cyst or "witch's wart" on the eyelids. You could hardly tell I had them but, as the happy, lucky owner of these lesions - they suck when you look up close. So, Berlin is a good man, knows his stuff and performs excellent surgical procedures. Plus, his assistants take care to do their work without issue. I was NOT put out but put into "La La Land" (where I needed to be knowing the KNIFE would be at my eyes) and it all went so well I didn't even realize when we were actually finished. Great bedside manner and you can talk to this man, he's good. Having said all that, the office is busier than heck (which is really busy these days - trivia) which makes for comfortable, yet excruciating wait times. They're working on it...
