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.

He is the best, listens, explains and really cares about the patient.

I'd like to thank Tri-State Surgery and their staff for the professionalism and kindness shown to me while I was a patient. I would highly recommend Dr. Goldberg. His expertise and attention to every detail allowed me to recover from a serious ear infection.

Dr Goldberg is the best Dr I've ever been to. He performed my thyroidectomy and you can barely see my scar. He's very nice and clearly a skilled surgeon.

I would not recommend Dr Goldberg to anyone. In fact I tell people to stay clear of him! In March 2014 I had my tonsils removed. I was told there was a very very slim chance for complications. He told me I could eat anything I wanted and I had no limitations. Well then the bleeding came went to the ER was told normal and sent home. But back in a few days later and had emergency surgery again bc the bleeding was so bad. He nicked an artery the 1st surgery and I had to get 5 stitches on each side

Dr. Goldberg ruined my husband's life and robbed him of his health. He performed a very dangerous procedure called a turbinate reduction procedure. At the time, we had no idea of the issues that this procedure would cause. We were just told that his nose would bleed and be a bit sore afterwards. Sure enough, it bled ALOT - enough to go through a few boxes of tissues. Then came the serious and life changing side effects, including permanent nerve damage & ENS in my husband's nose.

My experiences with Washington ENT all resulted in an excellent care experience. They provided high quality care in a way that felt very personalized. I could write a lengthy review but I have always be a person who believes actions speak louder than words. Based on my experiences with the doctors I entrusted them to care for my young child, care that included surgery. The care my family and I received was outstanding in every way.

Dr Goldberg treats my children as well as my husband and me. He treats us for all ENT issues as well as our allergies. He was highly recommended to us by other doctors and we strongly feel that he is the best. Dr. Goldberg is extremely thorough and knowledgable. He takes the time to answer questions and explain the details of treatment. His office staff is friendly and accommodating. Calls are always quickly returned. I highly recommend Dr Goldberg for all ages.
