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.

Amazing and kind physician
Dr. Goldstein what is the first doctor to diagnose my restless leg syndrome after seeing several doctors who were baffled. She was kind and compassionate, and took the extra time to help with difficult insurance issues.

Went for headaches. Everything was going great and then out of nowhere, I was being shamed for taking a medication she “didn’t like”, for a medical condition she doesn’t treat or seem to have much of an understanding of ._. It is not okay to stigmatize your patients and offer unsolicited opinions about medications they take. I waited months for this appointment and wound up going home crying, feeling othered, and feeling like a bad person for taking medication I need to function.

Initial appointment went well and she definitely took her time to go over history. After she evaluated me and couldn’t find anything within her scope she mocked me and implied I was faking symptoms. If you fall within her scope she is likely a decent doctor, however, fall outside of it and her arrogance and self righteous ego will get in the way of actually get the help and medical attention you need. Went to another neurologist who immediately identified the problem, ordered relevant testing and that different neurologist is now getting me back to normal. Avoid her, she gets perverse pleasure in believing herself better than everyone else. Probably overcompensating for being out of medical school for the last 25+ years and isn’t up to date with modern medicine.
