St. Luke's Center for Urology - Palmerton
My interests are surgical management of stone disease, incontinence, neurourology, cryosurgical therapy for prostate cancer, management of pelvic pain and hormonal deficiencies in men.
I graduated with a Bachelor of arts degree in biochemistry from the University of Maryland Baltimore County and then proceeded to earn my medical degree from the University of Maryland School of Medicine. I continued my preliminary post-graduate training in general surgery and completed residency training in urology at Penn State University Hershey Medical Center, Hershey, PA. I received the American Board of Urology board certification in 2002 and recertified in 2020.
After completing residency in 2000, then practicing in North Carolina for 5 years, I moved to the Lehigh Valley in 2005. I am fluent in Spanish.
My hobbies are amateur astronomy and sailing.

“This was my first visit after being diagnosed. I had dozens of questions and was considering a prostate cancer center outside of St. Lukes's system prior to this meeting. Dr. Berger answered all my questions before I asked them. He presented many treatment options should I need them and was well versed in all of them. He listened to my concerns. I was very comfortable working with him. I trust Dr. Berger and am pleased that I was referred to him.”
