  2026-02-23

  2026-02-18

• I have now been to three different ALS clinics since my diagnosis. By far, Dr. Barry was the most informed and experienced of all the providers that I have seen. He gave me more information about where I likely am in the progression of my disease and about possible treatment plans. Even though Boston is far away from Maryland, I am certain that this clinic is the right place for me to be. The level of care from this multi disciplinary clinic is worth the effort. It will take to travel there.

  2026-02-03

• Dr. Berry and his fellow were excellent and worked well as a team. I was exceptionally satisfied.

  2026-02-02

• Yes, I was very happy with Dr. Berry. He was very knowledgeable about clinical studies and about different things regarding medications for ALS. So I felt comfortable talking to him and understood everything he had mentioned to me and my family. He was very knowledgeable. Thank you.

• Great

  2026-01-11

• I always feel like I'm in good hands when I see Dr. Berry. He is so knowledgeable but yet down to earth.

  2025-12-20

• He typically arrives late but stays as long as necessary to answer all my questions, and to demonstrate that he cares. He also ensures that people I need to see (speech therapists, his RN, and his PT specialist) visit with me after my visit with him (dr Berry).

  2025-12-20

• Dr Berry tells it like it is. we appreciate that

  2025-12-16

• The first person to see me introduced himself by his first name only. Later I asked for his last name. I don't know his status: ?Fellow,?Resident,??? In the world of medicine, Providers usually use their title/ credentials. He was great and so was Dr. Berry

  2025-12-22

• All parts of care are fantastic....just a bit of chaos in and around the hospital, but that's expected, it's boston after all

  2025-11-17

• Dr. Berry is outstanding, and I feel blessed that he is my doctor.

  2025-11-04

• For a diagnosis that is scary, and certianly not anything anyone wants to go through, I feel that my husband is in the best of hands with the team at MGH. I immediatley felt as though we had come in to an extended family.

  2025-11-04

• Dr. Berry is excellent. He went above and beyond. We are very, very impressed and blessed.

  2025-10-24

• Understand that this was a virtual telephone visit and except for the lack of anything hands-on it was full of medical information, review of history, and recommendations for future exploration. He was well informed and supportive.

  2025-10-21

• I guess we were happy with Dr. Berry and the entire multidisciplinary personnel that we met. And as awful as the situation is, I think we're in good hands. And we were able to answer some more questions, or all of them, actually. And if they weren't sure, they we're pretty open about the possibilities. So we're looking forward to the next visit.

  2025-10-22

• Excellent communication. Very thoughtful and showed compassion to problem being addressed. Would highly recommend Dr. Berry and his team for the care shown to us during our recent visit.

  2025-10-10

• I really appreciate being able to see Dr Berry and his fellow Dr [redacted]. Their advice means so much to me as I live with ALS. I understand their busy research schedules, but they took enough time to answer my many questions. Thank you again to the whole ALS team.

• Dr. Berry always spends a great deal of time with me and is familiar with whatever is recently going on with me medically. He answers all my questions and the questions of my family members. He is very kind to patients like me who are terminally ill. Side note: I like his crazy socks!
