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.

Very skilled at what he does
I had a meningioma removed by Dr. Goodman. I had a stroke and he knew to relieve the pressure by taking a flap out of my skull. I would have been paralyzed if Dr Goodman had not acted so fast. Today I have made a full recovery and am very thankful to God for leading me to Dr Goodman.

Dr. Goodman was my assigned Neuro following a severe accident that left me with a fractured C2 vertebrae. He was extremely helpful during my recovery, did a wonderful job in explaining the recovery process and outlining key benchmarks and improvements during my recovery. His excellent demeanor and professionalism made it a joy to work with him. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Goodman is very professional, kind, and listens to his patients. I think all the staff are great and go the "extra mile" for the patient. If not for Dr. Goodman, and his surgical skill, I am sure I would be in a wheelchair.

Dr. Goodman is one of the most caring, and provider of good care that I have ever met. He has counseled with me, and performed appropriate surgical procedures on me. In my book he is one of the very best. After a lifetime of many sport related injuries, and later auto accident related injuries, I have had 48 surgeries. Without having the best care possible I would not be alive. Dr. Goodman is one of the best there is. I would recommend him to anyone. Sincerely, Diane MacKerricher
