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.

This doctor is terrible and insulting, his staff is not helpful with figuring out insurance. My mother went to him for a spinal injury. He proceeded to refuse to medicate her and to not to want to look further into her issue. She stated that she was in continued high level of pain. He finally ordered an MRI to reveal that there was a significant issue with one of her L5 disk. Instead of stating that she should see a spine expert he stated to her that they would have laughed at her for it. What the hell is that? My mother still had to wait on the phone to find out where she could get pain treatment. Then they give her a tier II hospital, she has to call back to say that she needed a tier I hospital for treatment. The staff wouldn’t help her and as she is in severe spinal pain she is forced to do her own research. This guy must only care about getting money in his pocket to try to sway someone from going to the right doctor. DO NOT GO TO THIS GUY.

Great doctor I have seen other doctors for my knee pain and should have went to Dr. Gold first . We had a positive conversation about my knee pain and the best treatment plan for me and discussed alternative treatments for the future if necessary. He never once told me to loose weight or belittle me like others have. Love this doctor!!!

I would leave zero stars if I could. Before he even examined me told me I was overdramatic. Barely examined me. Discounted everything I had to say ,continually telling me he was a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon & knee what he was talking about. All I needed was medicine and I’d be good as new in a week. Fast forward one week and the MRI he refused to prescribe- he misdiagnosed me completely and I need surgery. He should consider board certifying in people skills!

Dr. David Gold to be one of the best physicians I have utilized. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Gold to evaluate mild pain in my lower back. He is very personal, and asked the right question, examined of my back and legs, and then had my back x-rayed. Showed and explained the x-ray results. He prescribed a very mild muscle relaxant, recommended rest, and provided me with a printout of some mild exercises I could do at home to improve my back. Staff helpful and friendly.
