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.

Dr. Goldenberg is trustworthy, knowledgeable and listens patiently to me. I recommend her without hesitation!!!! My husband is also a patient!!!

Dr. Goldenberg listens, explains, cares, and knows her stuff. She helped me feel very comfortable about procedures that I’d been worried about, and results were excellent.

Dr. Goldenberg took over for another doctor in her practice that had not been a good fit for me. We emailed back and forth about an emergency situation and she was on top of getting back to me immediately. When I went to she her in person I was thoroughly impressed. She is wonderful! I felt completely heard, seen and understood. She is a very warm and kind doctor with a lot of empathy. She seems very intelligent and knowledgeable. I never felt rushed. She spent plenty of time with me. She made great eye contact and the thing I liked most about her is that she kindly touched me on my back and arm to show she understood or to be empathetic which went a long way in making me feel comfortable and cared about.
