Verified patient
I was pleased with the speed with which the doctor squeezed me into her busy schedule. I arrived at a modern office building that had ample parking. The office staff was welcoming, adept and organized. I was seen promptly after signing in. The examination was comprehensive and I was left knowing much more about my allergic condition, what might cause flare-ups and what to avoid, what to do in the event of a subsequent emergency, and the specifics of the treatment plan going forward. Of course, I will be returning, and I would highly recommend this doctor.

I'm very pleased with my visit. The doctor listened to my problem and was very thorough in her explanation and her exam. She checked for everything I was concerned about and things I didn't know may also be the problem. The office staff are very nice and friendly and I really like their walk in policy after the first visit. Very convenient when you work late hours as myself.
Her bedside manner comes across as accusatory. If you have a problem and didn't keep detailed daily records for a good two months before going to see her, don't bother and book with someone else. I might not be a doctor but i am surely not a child and do not appreciate being treated like one.
Verified patient
So glad I went to see Dr. Goodstein. She is very knowledgeable, and was able to to give me additional information I was never given by other doctors to help with my problem. She is very thorough with her treatment, and the visit was very informative. Her and her staff were very pleasant, and the office is very clean and comfortable. I'm not a fan of going to doctors, but I will go to Dr. Goodstein again...
I saw Dr. Goodstein for the 1st time and i must say Dr. Goodstein is a GREATTTTT doctor! She answered all of my questions and concerns. She was extremely thorough. I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends. I had the best experience with Dr.Goodstein. Very pleasant & comforting!
I wasn't happy with the office. Not updated, very old. Also was not a huge fan of that fact that my co-pay had to be paid in cash or check but when I needed change, the receptionist and eventually the doctor herself had to go into her personal wallet to give me the change. Was not a huge fan of Dr. Goodstein' bedside manner.
I went on Zocdoc to find an allergist and drove 12 miles to the only one that was listed as in my healthcare network. Winds up it was only tier 2 so I will pay hundreds of dollars. Now I find three doctors within .5 miles of my home that are tier 1. so I am paying hundreds of dollars that I didn't have to. Great.
Verified patient
I am not one for negative ratings as I like most of my doctors but Dr. Goodstein is a nice lady but if you have severe sinusitis I suggest you find another allergist with updated technology. I did not find relief with Dr. Goodstein and was not happy with her diagnosis. I ended up finding another Allergist who confirmed my suspicions and immediately referred me to a top ENT doctor for surgery.
Verified patient
Dr. Goodstein is very detail oriented and truly took time to consider my concerns. She was talkative and let me know what each step she was taking was for. Highly recommended.
Wonderful doctor.
Verified patient
She took the time to answer all my questions I had. I have been breaking out with hives 2 years and have never gotten a correct answer. She did lots of blood work to try and figure out what was my problem. In less than a month she narrowed it down to my potential reason, Highly recommend her to anyone.
Verified patient
I really liked Dr Goodstein. She was very professional and friendly to me. She understood my concern, and she seemed to genuinely want to help me with my persistence rashes. I left the office feeling like she will find the problem. There was really no wait which I was amazed considering I went during her evening hours. I would highly recommend her.

Quick, easy, & fun.
