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.

Rt shoulder pain
Dr Goldstein was very informative and explained every aspect of my damaged shoulder. Explained in detail of what was going to happen during the surgery and what I was going to do to rehab it. He and.his assistant were very thorough.

I was and am a patient of Dr. Goldstein.
Dr. Goldstein was prepared in every sense of the word. He had reviewed my file and prior radiology work as well as records from my earlier visit to Urgent Care (Aspirus). He had read the notes taken by the person who scheduled my visit with him and he pointed out to me a prior MRI reflected the existence of a Baker's cyst which had become the problem that now required his care. Dr. Goldstein explained the problem using visual aids and words I could understand. His treatment was efficient, effective and painless. He also scheduled an appointment the following week for Dr. Borders to drain the cyst. My comfort level with him was and is very high. He relates well to patients and their problems, and I have no reason to believe he does not have superior technical skills as a surgeon. You may assume that while I have no medical background, education, training or experience I do have a good understanding of the health-care industry, and I have represented numerous health-care providers.
