He brilliantly performed my surgery and provided daily care during my 2-day hospital stay and beyond. I had zero pain and to this day in my new hip joint due to Dr. Goldman's skill and expertise.

I had broken the second metatarsal in my foot. Very caring guy.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Goldman for several years for my knees, the left knee replacement TKR and the right knee arthroscopic meniscus and arthritis cleanup. Then more recently my shoulders was diagnosis of partial rotator cuff tears and shredded labrums. What first brought me to Dr. Goldman was my daughter, a Physical Therapist. She told me Dr. Goldman's patients were always in the best shape post-surgery than other patients and highly recommended that I see him. She was 100% correct. Two days after I left the hospital after my TKR I was bending my knee 120 degrees. My Physical Therapist said she had never seen anyone with that amount of flex that soon after surgery. Somewhere down the line I will probably need TKR surgery on my right knee as well as surgery on both shoulders. Dr. Goldman is my go to guy. All I heard during my stay was that Dr. Goldman is the best and that I would be in good hands. I was sold and I agree. Also, I've seen Dr. McBride for tennis elbow, which was great.”
