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.

After more than 20 years of visiting different dermatologists without getting a proper diagnosis or effective treatment, I finally found Dr. Cary Goldsman in Staten Island and he solved my skin problem in just one month! His deep knowledge, precision, and commitment to real solutions are truly outstanding. I am beyond grateful for his help and give him my full applause and appreciation. You are my golden nugget in the ruthless desert of sand. Bravo Doctor Goldsman!!! P.S. Yes, you may have to wait for your appointment because his office is always packed but that's simply because he is that good. If you prefer empty offices with no wait times, you can also expect to waste years without results, like I did chasing "by the book" doctors who never fixed my issue. Waiting a little for true expertise is a small price to pay. Thank you, Dr. C. Goldsman, for making a real difference!

I stopped seeing this guy. For starters, (in the Staten Island office); the receptionist has a loud and boorish manner and broadcasts your business to the entire room, (which is wide open). Once you get in to see the doctor you will find a sniveling and sneering man who will belittle you on matters of technicality; matters you came to him for in the first place. I don't think he learned the meaning of the phrase 'bedside manner'.

This doctor, (Goldsman), does not offer a full range of dermatological services; (like draining cysts for instance). For a co-pay and maybe $175 total; you would think the “exceptions” would be laid out ahead of time. So I guess you could call this guy a specializing specialist, (doing only certain things). Do yourself a favor…go someplace else. It’s like going to a transmission shop with your Toyota that charges you first and only does Cadillacs.

Dr Goldsman put the wrong code on some blood tests he ran and my insurance would not cover it because he put down on the lab work a code for symptoms not the code of the illnesses he was checking for with the blood work. My Insurance said they do not cover symptoms. I called his office to explain his error and I was told Dr. Goldsman never changes his mind. Now I have to pay close to $300.00 to the lab for the blood work, plus the 35.00 copay I already paid Dr Goldsman.
