"Dr. Goodman is a very 'good' man. I honestly don't know how he keeps up with everything...I believe he has several offices and also does surgery out of several different hospitals. He has evening/night office hours, and when I was in the hospital, he did his rounds close to midnight or later! Does the man ever sleep?
I had a few minor issues after surgery and when I had to call the service he always quickly returned my call, was very re-assuring, and did not seem this least bit upset about being paged.
He's quiet, but very willing to discuss any questions you have, and does give you his full attention during your appointment. He thoroughly discussed the risks and benefits of the surgery and has a very good bedside manner. I felt very confident in his ability and comfortable putting my life/health in his hands.
All I can say is that it is very obvious that Dr. Goodman is very dedicated to his work, and must get a sense of great satisfaction knowing that he has helped so many people lead more healthy and happy lives. I'm thankful that God has given such skill to this surgeon, and gave him a sense of purpose to help others. "
"The hospital was very accomodating and the staff was very friendly. I never was made to feel 'different' or a 'problem'. The nurses and aides were very helpful and were very responsive. Although I did have to have the usually middle of the night shots, IV changes, vitals, etc. they tried to be as quiet and as quick as possible. A single room was not available, but they did make sure that I didn't have to share a room with anyone, which really enhanced my privacy, and they allowed my husband to stay overnight with me the first night after surgery."
