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.

CONSTRUCTIVE REVIEW OF THE PEDES PRACTICE
They seem to be overbooked, the waits are so long. Patient to doctor communication is rushed and inadequate. Dr. Goldstein is brilliant, and very honest and helpful. They need an active and well-managed portal to serve the needs of the patients and doctors as well. Prescriptions and appointments should post there instantly, annotated with requirements for each visit. Possible consequences for failure to follow requested procedures by patients (i. e., amputation, etc.) should be stated to the patient clearly with each condition, consequence and reason, should be placed so that their emphases cannot be avoided.

Dr. Goldstein is the Real Deal
Went here instead of the ER when my primary found a blood clot. Dr. Hewett saw me first and truly was amazing giving me the best advice and treated me like family. Dr. Goldstein did my surgery and this guy and his surgical team are absolutely the best in class. Would greatly recommend this clinic. Only advice would be the front desk staff at Pedes and their communication / expectations to new patients.

Dr. Goldstein was able to answer all my questions very thoroughly & he didn’t make any false promises either. He was understanding & realistic about my situation. He let me know what to expect & told me that I would have to come in for yearly checks over the course my life bcuz bad veins are a lifelong disease. The only reason this place lost a star is bcuz they didn’t have my test images when I came in for my appt. They said I was supposed to bring the disk myself but that had never been expressed to me at any time. But other than that, great job PEDES!

It was the second worst medical appointment of my life. He was extremely rude, arrogant and did not care at all about what was happening with me. NO bedside manner. I really liked his partner, but this guy ruined my experience and I will never go back to his practice.

Dr Goldstein is the real deal. My experience was nothing short of perfection. It’s not often you can find such professionalism and skill in one physician. I highly recommend Pedes and Dr Goldstein.

We have been seeing Dr. Goldstein since January, he is immediate with action when an issue came up with our mother’s PAD (Peripheral artery disease). Her symptoms were increasingly painful and was in Pedes within 24 hours. Their diagnostic was more thorough than anyone she had seen before and the diagnostic showed extraordinary issues that was created from a previous stent that was placed by a previous doctor. They corrected the issue and she has been pain free since.
