"My daughter saw the NP Melissa today and she was so sweet and thorough. She’s a great addition to Dr. Goldberg’s practice!"

"Updated post: After coming here for a few months, we are glad that we’ve met with Dr. Goldberg prior to making the decision to leave. Although Nicole didn’t give off the right impression when we first came, we are very content with our son’s doctor. She is honest, straight forward and does not sugar coat any information she is providing to you. She makes sure she guides you to doing the right thing and does not ridicule how you feel or think about making decisions for your child. If you are local and want your child to see a new doctor, I recommend coming to this office and seeing Dr. Goldberg! Original post: Our first visit was the day after we came home from the hospital for the first check up. We saw the nurse practitioner, NICOLE. The lady at the front desk and the medical assistant was very pleasant so we looked forward to meet with the NP. We knew something was off (her energy) the moment she walked in by the way she greeted us. Unfortunately, as new parents, we were extremely disappointed with her lack of professionalism. She spoke to us with a condescending tone. She asked if we had any questions and proceeded to interrupt me every opportunity she had. She made us feel like our questions were “invalid”. For example, we asked when we should be concerned about rashes on his skin and what we should look out for and she chuckled and shrugged and said “a rash is a rash, it’ll happen”. Very dismissive and seem annoyed that we were there. We have met Dr. Goldberg but have not been seen by her so I do not have any comments regarding a visit with her but she was very helpful with insurance issues we were having. I would not come back to this office to meet with the NP. I’ll update my review once I have a visit with the Dr."

"Absolutely a gem!! The whole staff is polite and professional! Never a long wait and Goldberg and her PA takes her time and examines and discusses everything. Must give them a try if looking for a new pediatrician"

"Will be switching doctors as the two times I’ve been in I have felt extremely rushed. No bedside manner. Called my son’s autism a “medical problem” in front of him. Was very short with him when he asked a question. I’m sure she’s skilled but perhaps needs to work on having a more positive friendly attitude with patients."

"I had my son with her. She's so rude so disrespectful. I went the first time I try to explaining her what my son had and she didn't pay attention. So I thought it's bcuz I have a accent on my English. For my next appointment I took my husband with me and I told him to talk to her (he's from here he knows a good English) so when he was taking to her she never answer whoever he was saying and she always referred her look at me with I wasn't talking to her. I had a bad experience I change my son pedriact and I so happy now i dont recommend her at all"
