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 told many, many people how wonderful Dr Goldstein is. He takes everything into consideration to make a good evaluation. Great Dr & team.

Been a patient for over 10 years & had a variety of pain issues. Dr. Goldstein & staff have a collaborative approach where we work together to address each issue. When appropriate, they'll give me the name of a specialist & these have all been great recommendations. Dr. Goldstein & his PA provide pain medicine as appropriate. Don't go here if you're just looking for opiates. If you have pain issues & want a doctor's office that cares & will work with you and respect your concerns, go here.

Dr. Goldstein took care of my mother during her hospice stay in Teaneck at the close of a 3 year battle with cancer. He quickly earned her confidence, was responsive and attentive to her needs and helped ensure that her final month of life was as comfortable as possible under difficult circumstances. I would recommend him without reservation.

Dr. Goldstein is truly the best. After a failed back surgery, Dr. Goldstein has helped me manage my pain for the past 4 years. He spends an ample amount of time with me and answers all of my questions. His staff is amazing and always get back to me in a timely manner.

I have been going to Dr Goldstein for many years. His staff has always been friendly and attentive to my needs, and very caring about my pain. The doctor has been in a beautiful new office since early 2018, which is clean and spacious. I have had my questions addressed by the doctor, and he has always made sure that I understand the effects of the procedures he performed in the office and the surgery center. I have had a positive experience time after time. Two thumbs up!

DR. Goldstein and his staff are very professional! If you are looking for a DR. that truly wants to help you, then he's the one! He has 2 locations. One in NYC and a new state of the art office he just opened up in Hackensack NJ. His staff is very accommodating. Whenever I can't get to NYC, they will accommodate me at his NJ office. He finds the root of your problem!

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Goldstein?
I saw Dr. Goldstein for nearly four years. None of his treatments worked for my back pain, caused by arthritis and herniated discs. He performed three facet blocks, three epidurals, and one radio frequency ablation. At first, he was liberal with opiates, but then began cutting the doses. He was often brusque and indifferent. He never acknowledged the severity of my pain until he saw my positional MRI. But his sympathy evaporated by the time of my next appointment. Do not go to him.

Dr Goldstein & staff are Arrogant & Disrespectful. Office waits excessive. 3 days leading up to your procedure you will be called 10x or more reminding you of your appmt by his office & surgery ctr. Your instructions will say "Time of procedure is subject to change" and they will. My apptmt was noon but at 10am he & staff started asking where I am. Someone canceled on Goldstein & he did not want to wait till noon for my procedure so he became argumentative, rude & canceled! BEWARE! Horrible!

This was the worst experience I ever had with a doctor. It is unbelievable how un-professional this office is. I would not even consider him a doctor he is disgusting and broke many confidentiality laws. I highly do not recommend anyone going here. The place itself is dirty and the nurses always have dirty clothes on. Absolutely filthy and disgusting. This place needs to be shut down. It dosent even deserve 1 star.

I called Dr. Goldstein's office to make an appointment I was referred to him by another doctor. I first called I found out that he didn't take my insurance but if I made a payment of $340 he would see me the following week. I found that kind of odd because I have not met him yet nor did he know of any of my neck and back issues.when I called the office they cancelled my appointment because of mylack Of insurance. I would not expect this from a doctor who truly cares about people in need of help.
