Dr. Viera Bernat
I am a Primary Care Physician in Pediatrics and Family Medicine. During the past 25 years, I have developed a trusting and caring relationship with my patients and their families. As a result, my staff and I often work with the entire family unit; in fact it is not uncommon for three generations of family members to be our patients. As we treat families, we can recognize genetic risk factors and use that knowledge to more effectively screen and possibly even prevent disease.
Dr. Funk
I am originally from Youngstown, Ohio. I have completed my Undergraduate College at the Ohio State University and earned my Medical degree at Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine where I have graduated in 1989.
I am Board Certified in Family Practice. My interests are preventative medicine, musculoskeletal conditions and sport injuries, including neck, lower back and extremities as applied for the entire family – from children to elderly.
Brooke Freiman, P.A.-C. RD.LD
In January of 2004 we have expanded our practice to include the position of Physician Assistant to our staff and we have maintained it ever since. We are very fortunate to offer services of Brooke to our patients. She is a family medicine physician assistant and registered dietitian who earned her Masters degree in physician assistant studies from University of Nebraska and her Bachelors degree in health and sport studies from Miami University. She focuses on integrating medical nutrition therapy with conventional approaches for managing multiple disease states. Her interests include weight loss, women’s health and diabetes care.
We firmly believe that our current staff have greatly enhanced our ability to serve all of our current and future patients seeking a professional medical advice and help. At the same time it improved and shortened our patients’ waiting time and allowed us to be more efficient and more convenient in providing our services to the community.
In addition to providing you with a competent and caring staff our practice is affiliated with the best available hospital care in the Cleveland area:
· Hillcrest , CCHS
· South Pointe Hospital, CCHS
· Rainbow Babies and Children Hospital, UHHS
We are working very hard to make sure that all of our staff members, from the front desk receptionists to the medical staff are highly professional, well trained and informed in order to provide and continually improve smooth operation and uninterrupted flow of our medical office. We strive to deliver timely and high quality service resulting in cpmplete satisfaction of all our patients.
Our office is open five days a week and appointments are met promptly and we are putting our best effort toward eliminating waiting as much as possible.
As many of you have noticed and already took advantage of, we have expanded our business hours twice a week until 7:00 pm in order to even further improve our availability to our patients.
