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 am biased, but
I am very biased as I am retired cardiologist and Dr. Goswami was one of my partners. I still send patients to Dr. Goswami and he has seen most of my friends and family. He is a fantastic doctor and a decent human being. I highly recommend.

Great Doc – Dec 31, 2024

Very Disapointed
Dr Goswami never came to the room. I was seen by one of his Family Nurse Practitioners. She looked over my lab results and talked at length about Statins as being a drug that lowers cholesterol. She pushed strongly for going on Statins. I wanted to discuss other options but she kept coming back to Statins. I asked if I could see Dr Goswami but he never came to meet me. The reason I made the appointment was so I could talk to Dr Goswami.

Such a distinguished, specialist
Dr. Goswami was very cordial and personable. He asked 'how i was feeling', prioritizing and validating my concerns before considering any protocol orprocedures if warranted. He clearly communicates well with a compassionate bedside manner!His demeanor exudes a distinguished air of prominence.I would never seek a second opinion!

He was dismissive and seemed as though I was wasting his time. He showed very little compassion for my concerns. He mumbled snide comments under his breath about my age and health. When I experienced issues with prescribed medicine, he/his nurse did not return my call.

Dr. Goswami is an excellent physician. He explained the results of testing in layman's language. He listened and understood my concerns and therefore, not only answered my questions but did so clearly, understandably and non-judgmentally. We discussed the treatment options available to me and he respected my preference so we were able to come to a mutual decision about how we were going to proceed. When l left, I felt confident about my treatment plan and Dr. Goswami.

I have been referred to Dr.Goswami by my PCP and have been seeing for a couple of year for proactive cardiac care. He is very good discussing with you in details and answers all your questions with appropriate references. With his care my cardiovascular health is at its best for my age. I would not hesitate recommending him if you are looking for cardiologist.

He was not willing to listen to my issues and concerns. He rushed me through the appt and would ask a question and not let me respond before he interrupted and asked another question. He was dismissive and seemed as though I was wasting his time. He showed very little compassion for my fears. His staff was very nice and helpful.

This is my 5th year with Dr Goswami as my Cardiologist. The care and attention has been outstanding over all these years. He had been outstanding in diagnosing the cardiac condition that I had which actually led to a proactive treatment via surgery. At each visit, Dr Goswami not only looks at and discusses all the necessary pointers of good cardiac health but also deals with emerging medications and treatments to see if they are applicable in treating my condition in a proactive manner. He emphasizes life style choices and physical exercise as the best way of taking care of cardiac health and motivates me to do better. I am fortunate that I found a cardiologist who takes such a great interest in patient health. Net, he is an expert diagnostician as well as a care provider who relates personally to people.
