I had heard of hip and knee replacements, in fact, I have one of each, but I did not know a shoulder joint can also be replaced. At the age of 70+ my right shoulder became so painful I was unable to fasten my car seatbelt without help. I could barely lift a fork to eat. After unsuccessful arthroscopic surgery and painful rehab, I decided I had to find a shoulder specialist. After much on-line research, I found Dr. Goldberg and he honestly saved the quality of the rest of my life. Thank you DrG

After being injured overseas after much pain I was operated on by Dr Goldberg and the results were excellent. Within a few months my pain diminished and within 6 months I regained complete range of motion. Dr. Goldberg is the best

On New Year’s Eve of 2014, I slipped and fell while disembarking a cruise ship in a foreign country. I fell so hard that I severely injured my shoulder and required surgery immediately. But, that first surgery didn’t solve my problem. In fact, my injury only got worse. I couldn’t get through a single day without debilitating pain. This was no way to live. I knew that I needed a second surgery. When I tried to find a surgeon to perform a second surgery, I was repeatedly turned down due to

I was referred to Dr. Goldberg by my primary care physician for chronic neck, upper back and shoulder pain. I was told that the only way I could see Dr. Goldberg was to have an X-Ray first. Which was done before visit. During my appointment, I was only seen by his PA and they spent approx 10 mins with me asking a few questions and rotating my arm and doing short strength tests. I was than basically dismissed and told to go to a Neurologist that they recommended. Never mentioned X-Ray or meds

Treatment & service--Outstanding. Refreshing to call an office and someone actually answers the phone & helps you. Entire staff is sincerely nice. Denise, The office manager is great. I have seen Dr. Goldberg many times...first my knee next my shoulder. He did rotator cuff surgery. The treatment & recovery time was excellent. When I have questions, Dr. Goldberg always takes time to answer them and never treats me like a number. He is the best--Thanks Dr Goldberg.

Dr. Goldberg was very patient with my questions and fears regarding my sore shoulder. Then he did the surgery which almost immediately made movement less painful and actually extended my range of motion! I highly recommend him for all shoulder issues.

After a life in sports, including cycle and ski racing, resulting in injuries and surgeries, both shoulders had become very painful, interfering with activities and sleep. After stem cell and a doctor visit, I resolved myself to possible double surgery. Dr. Goldberg has been life changing for me, an exception in his field viewing each patient's issues individually. He chose a non surgical approach with a miraculous outcome. I'm virtually pain free. I highly recommend Dr. Goldberg. Bob Seemann

I made an appointment with Dr Goldberg but never got to see Dr Goldberg. After check in I first saw a technician who took my info and entered it in a computer. I then saw a physicians assistant who gave me a cortisone shot which didn't work. I didn't know they could do this. When you make an appointment with a doctor you should get to see a doctor not assistants and technicians. I even provided an X-ray and the details on the previous shot I received which was effective.
