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 was 32 years old being told I had lung cancer by my Primary Doctor and i was sent to Dr. Gotkin. He saved my life, I did not have lung cancer, I was diagnosed, after several tests, with Granulomatosis with Polyangitis, a very rare illness. Thanks to Dr. Gotkin and his treatments I am now 55 years old and still kicking. He truly cares about his patients. This man is what every person should want in their doctor.

The absolute best pulmonologist in the world.
Dr Gotkin is kind, thoughtful and very professional. Dr Gotkin cares a lot about each one of his patients. I trust him with my life. He took very good care of my mom for many years. If you want a great doctor please choose Dr Gotkin.

A Specialist Who Cares
My initial contact with this office began with the friendly courteous voice of John, person who answered phone. He was professional in every way. I wish all doctors offices were as careful in hiring front desk staff. My first visit with Dr Gotkin could not have been better. Will be seen for follow up. Was there for some period of time and observed a cohesive group of professionals working as a team. It was comforting to know these people care about their patients. This office is a template for how “it’s done”. Kudos to them.

Excellent Doctor
I have seen Dr. Gotkin for the past year. He has been treating my Sleep Apnea. His expertise has helped me drastically reduce my episodes. They expertly fitted me for CPAP equipment and they were there for any adjustments. I highly recommend him and his office.

I was overcome with plaster and cement dust during a home renovation. After 3-4 weeks of breathing problems and muscle aches I went to Dr Gotkin. He had a complete breathing analysis and cat-scans he announced that I had Myloplasma Pneumonia. This was a relief from the other dire possibilities I was considering. He recommended a strong antibiotic and in just a week or ten days I feel completely cured. The office is calm, friendly, and professional. I will definitely return.
