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.

Overall best doctor!
Dr. Goldberg is without a doubt the overall very best doctor I have ever encountered. He has been my primary doctor as well as my cardiologist for the past several years. I have so much confidence in whatever medical advice he offers since I know he has that true combination of extensive knowledge and honest caring for my health and overall well being. I was considering a rather extensive operation to help with my profound deafness and he suggested that I might wish to first try a new type of hearing device. Of course, at his suggestion I tried it, and it honestly has saved me from undergoing a major operation at this point. I am so appreciative to be able to go to such a truly kind and patient doctor.

So you don’t forget Dr Goldberg
Because I never will. From 2019“ I would never recommend Dr. Goldberg. I went to see him for a Doppler for possible blood clots. After waiting 3 hours I had the test and I saw Dr Goldberg for approximately 5 minutes where he told me the test only showed old scarring. Two days later I was in ER with clots in both legs and lungs. When I asked for my results it did show clots but mysteriously my pictures were gone. I could have died but have no proof to pursue this.”1

I love Steven Goldberg as my PCP as well as cardiologist. He always takes the time to explain what is happening and what is necessary. BUT, it is impossible to reach the office either to make an appointment or ask a question. I listened to music for over an hour and never got through to the office. This is unexceptable in a doctors office!!!!! I do not know how to give a star rating if I would give the doctor five stars and the office zero stars.

Over the past 5 years I have wasted hours upon hours waiting to go into the exam only to wait another 1/2 hour. From that point it’s usually 15 minutes of exam followed up by a quick explanation in the office. He may be good but there are many cardiologist available that do not waste my time. Therefore time for a change. Respectfully one of your most faithful patient of the past 25 years!

Dr Goldberg is an experienced pro. He gives patients time, makes good referrals, and is a pleasure to deal with. Because he doesn't rush consultations and is as a senior executive at Pro Health, he is famous for running late.

Yes you wait but then you are seen by one of the most wonderful caring and knowledgeable physicians I have ever met. Excellent primary care physician and superb Cardiologist. I went to him 21 years ago and he has always been there for me and when I am waiting before my appointment he is being there for a different patient. Wouldn't think of going to anyone else.

I have been a patient of Dr. Goldberg for the past several years. I find him to be not only a warm caring doctor but very knowledgeable as well. I feel very well cared for and never have hesitated to bring up a concern to him. I always feel respected by him and he always listens to me. I am very glad to have found him! If there is a wait for him I do not mind because he gives me as much time as I need with him. He is well worth the wait!
