Quick and to the point, talks to you as a person as well as a patient. Puts one at ease that they are in good hands. Surgery was a breeze and the wound is healing wonderfully.

He's an ok surgeon, but my hernia mesh surgery was unsuccessful with him and a recurrent hernia developed within 11 weeks after the surgery! Followed up with him on May 23. He referred me to Dr. Shoener in Geneva for laparoscopic surgery hernia repair. He seemed to want to wash his hands of anymore care for my condition. I was left feeling uncared for. I ended up going to Kish NWM ER in Dekalb on May 27 evening because the hernia was bulging and burning. Cat scan was done showing the hernia was larger than the original one. l feel that Dr. Goldman's should have ordered such a CT scan during my May 23rd follow up with him! I'm very disappointed.

The first doctor I have met since moving to DeKalb three years ago that possesses a great bedside manner as well as professionalism and knowledge. Both my husband and I left his office feeling extremely relieved today.
