He completed his internship in general surgery at Loma Linda University / White Memorial Medical Center in 1980, followed by his residency in otolaryngology – head and neck surgery at the same educational venue in 1983.
In addition to being a Diplomate of the American Board of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, the doctor is board-certified through the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, whose mission is to serve the public by promoting the safe and ethical practice of the specialty of cosmetic surgery.

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.
In his personal life, Dr. Berman enjoys many different sporting activities, plays the guitar, and loves to read and write. In fact, he has written a comprehensive book on Cosmetic Surgery, What You Really Need to Know About Cosmetic Surgery. He has also authored a novel, Substance of Abuse, currently available through Amazon.com, as well as has written numerous papers, publications, and presentations.
Still, after over 20 years in practice, his favorite time of day is when he is performing surgery in the operating room. Happily married, he and his wife, Saralee, have a son, Sean. They also have two dogs, Vinnie and Lola.
