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 have had 8 or more basal cells and each time the doctor has cut out the area with the cancer and sent it to the lab to make sure that the margins are clear. I was a new patient and she told me that patients “preferred” a burn and scrape method for basal cell removal. She did this procedure on my lower calf and 2 weeks later it is oozing and sore when I walk. If I had had a regular incision and stitches it would have already been healed. At the office , they told me it could take another month or more to heal especially since the lower leg takes longer to heal. What kind of doctor does this? I just wonder if she makes more money this way…. Please find another dermatologist.

I was recommended to see Dr. Goldberg by a family member, but after going I can’t see why. I’m sure she is knowledgeable in her field, but never took my skin issues very seriously. She would not change medications even though I saw very little progress.

Dr. Goldberg is kind, engaging, thorough, and, perhaps most importantly, discerning with respect to her evaluation and procedure recommendations. I highly recommend her. Susan, Glenview, IL

Money money money that is all this doctor Is focused on. From the minute we walked in the door to the minute I I left they were trying to make more money. After a 10-15 minute wait the doctor shows up into the room takes one look at my daughter’s issue and wants to perform an even deeper biopsy for more money. I said no will just watch it so she said OK come back in six months and then left must’ve been in there five minutes. I am not going. Her staff needs to improve their attitude and cease the constant need for money. Highly not recommended

Dr. Goldberg has been my doctor for 5 years. She has removed moles that were dangerous and I am forever grateful for her. She is caring and compassionate. I would recommend her to anyone

She was nasty! The most uncaring, arrogant uncompassionate doctor I have ever seen. I will never return and never recommend.

Was very brief meaning a less than 5 minute eye to derma. Very arrogant staff. A non caring money motivated environment .... On a friends recommendation I drove 7 hours round trip to reach out for answers. Her staff even threw away skin samples. Of course lab skin tests were charged anyway..

She performed unnecessary Biopsy just to get more money from my insurance and me. Absolutely disappointed.
