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.

A smile with an unpleasant jab!
Dr Goldstock has a winning personality as well as expertise in his field. Getting shot up in the joint isn’t always pleasurable but he makes it less painful with an engaging style.

Genuine concern for my issue and a thorough review of my condition. A treatment aimed at avoiding more invasive procedures and detailed facts about how to proceed. I’m always very grateful to have a chance to work with Dr. Goldstock.

Shoulder bicep surgery
I love this Dr. He repaired my rotator and bicep, and took care of a bone spur. He showed me the video of the surgery and told me it would take anywhere from six months to a year to heal. I’m just under 6 months and I feel better than I have in 10 years. He has the best bedside manner. Friendly and listens.

Dr. Goldstock is awesome!
This last surgery was the fourth surgery performed by Dr. Goldstock (2 carpel tunnels, 2 shoulders) for me. He is so professional and competent and I highly recommend him as well as the OrthoNY practice.

Right to the point. Did not rush the appointment and suggested I wait a month to see if condition clears up without surgery. If not, call Jackie to schedule outpatient surgery.

Good Doctor
I only saw Dr. Goldstock for a brief time for a hand diagnosis. He was straight to business (no chit-chat, which I liked), and clearly explained the situation and a way forward for me. When I'm in need of a procedure for my hand, I'll reach out to him.
