Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I feel at ease every time I go to his office. His staff is very pleasant and accommodating. Dr Goldstein is extremely knowledgeable, listens to my concerns and always gives me advice on my condition. I would recommend him to everyone.

the office staff wasted 2 weeks of my time with trying to schedule and appointment. I was told that the doctor needed to review my medical records before they could schedule my appointment. after 1 week i was told that the records were on the Doctor's desk for review. after 2 weeks I was told that the medical records were never faxed over. I was then told that Dr. Goldstein is not taking new patients when it's listed on all inquiries that he is accepting new patients. I hope the incompetent staff in his office never have a medical condition and are treated as poorly as I have been. THIS WOULD BE ZERO STARS FOR ME.

I have been a patient of Dr. Goldstein’s for many years. SImply put, he saved my life and continues to monitor my health far and beyond any physician I have ever encountered. He listens carefully, takes you seriously, investigates and explains very clearly and succinctly. A wonderful doctor and man.

My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Carl S. Goldstein, because my hypertension required treatment by a specialist. My hypertension has been treated and managed successfully for approximately 20 years. I have absolute confidence in Dr. Goldstein's knowledge and exceptional skills, and I very impressed with the compassionate care that he provides to his patients.
