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.

Great ohysician
I have been seeing Dr G for A-fib for seven years. Getting timely appointments has always been easy. His examinations have always been thorough and he always stayed as long as necessary to explain my conditions and treatments. He is far and away the best doctor I’ve seen in my 77 years on earth. He will be deeply missed when he retires. I found his staff to be cordial, kind and caring.

Not worth one star, really! Questionable as to whether I needed to be hospitalized for 4 days (during holiday weekend). Catharized with his class present & stent placed. Did poorly afterwards. He was not willing to help get my post-op meds right afterwards and there were big problems. 5 months later went into CHF with terrible results & once old meds back from before stent with different cardiologist, I did alot better but still suffer much to this day, now really heart issues from all this. I had never had a heart problem before & not really indicated when he handled me (proven). Matter of fact I am told now that I have a strong heart with everything related to it. I would never recommend him to any human being.

Some of his advice was useful re how to reduce stress, Also his attitude was impatient! Worst of all, during a stress test he sat in the doorway focused on his smartphone - NOT ME!!

I made an impromptu appt with Dr. Goldbaum following recent hospitalization involving cardiac issue. The office recept. Leonita is excellent- friendly and respectful even on the phone! A rare find in my 20+ yrs becoming a patient who needs monitoring by specialist. Dr Goldbaum is knowledgeable and nice, so is the medical assistant, Fritz. Consistent great services in my 3 visits within one month period! A great medical office to have for medical care on cardiac specialty. My high recommendation.
