After many years I again have insurance Dr. Gould accepts. He is a no-nonsense, pleasant, knowledgeable doctor. I was in and out of his office in 40 minutes and received valuable information about all of my concerns.

Dr. Gould is an amazing doctor. He takes good care of you. Old school doctor practicing real good medicine. He actually talks to you and puts his hands on you and doesn't give you bs answers. Does all the work himself and gets to know you. Not like those new doctors that make you sit in the waiting room for an hour and only see you for about 3 minutes. One of the best Primary Care Doctors I've ever met and I work in the medical field.

Dr. Gould is very straight to the point. He took care of me completely-no other staff except receptionist. I like his character and the time he gave me. Kathy K.

I asked a local pharmacist for a referral when I retired and wanted a doctor nearby. The pharmacist recommended Dr. Gould and I have being going to him for a number of years. I like Dr. Gould because he is very professional and listens to what I am saying. Unlike many other physicians, Dr. Gould draws blood himself, takes BP and gives injections. He reviews my chart and asks about any issues from my previous visit. Whenever Dr. Gould needed to refer me to another medical professional they were also excellent. I highly recommend Dr. Gould.
Verified patient
Dr Gould is an excellent doctor. He is truly concerned about your well being and takes his time with you. He is honest, highly intelligent and well informed.
Verified patient
Dr. Gould is very nice. This is my second time with an appointment (annual physical). Answers all my questions and is very knowledgeable.
Verified patient
I found Dr. Gould efficient and professional. I see no reason not to continue with him as my general practicioner, particularly since he is in my neighborhood.
Verified patient
He was polite, but not cold. He listened to my concerns and addressed them directly and clearly. He didn't patronize me or "dumb things down." I was seen almost immediately, and he didn't rush me out the door once we were done with the "main" reason for my visit.
I love my doctor!
Verified patient

Dr Gould is very good! I was a new patient and I felt welcomed by him and also his staff. I'm optimistic about returning in the future.
Verified patient
He was thorough and personable. Wish he had more updated equipment however overall they all work, and he was able to conduct his observations well.
Dr. Gould is a superior doctor, and I am glad to have him. I have multiple serious medical problems, and I feel confident he takes the best care of me.
Dr. Gould was helpful and very attentive. I hadn't been to a doctor for a physical in a few years and Dr. Gould was thorough and listened to what I had to say. Highly recommended.
This is my primary doctor so I have been here before. I do however like making my appointments online as I am reminded of my appointment time and date most helpful. Thank you.
Verified patient
This was my first visit with Dr Gould. He was professional, very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable. He was patient and answered all my questions. After talking with me and a standard exam, he talked with me about what was wrong and gave me a script to fix it. Overall it was a fine primary care visit and i would go back for other medical issues.
Verified patient
Happy to have found Dr. Gould on ZocDoc.
Very professional and very thorough.
Verified patient
I booked an appointment for my husband and myself after reading reviews here on zocdoc. I have to agree, the office is a bit old school looking, but other than that I have nothing but good things to say about our visit with Dr. Gould. We arrived to our appointment a little early, so we did have to wait but not that long. Once we saw the doctor I explained that I have a terrible phobia of needles, to which Dr. Gould was very understanding of and was very patient with me. As scared as I was, I have to admit he did a wonderful job of drawing my blood. When it came to seeing my husband, he was so thorough with him as well. He was extremely professional, he took his time with asking us questions and the physical check up. I would recommend him to anyone, he definitely has two new regular patients with me and my husband.
Verified patient
Easy to talk with and professional
Dr. Gould saw me immediately, took his time with me during the appointment and was very professional. Agree with other posters that office is outdated however will absolutely continue to see him for my annual physical.
Verified patient
This was not my primary doctor. I scheduled this appt. because my doctor was booked and i needed to see one as soon as possible. The doctor was very polite and clear spoken. He is also the nurse meaning he takes the BP and draws blood. It would be unpleasent to come at a busy time frame because he has no help besides the recepsionest who was also nice.
Went very well and very satisfied.
Verified patient
Dr. Gould was very professional. Despite the fact that I was late, he still saw me and treated me very well. He was able to diagnose my condition and provided a solution that worked for me
Dr. Gould was very pleasant and professional, it was a quick and easy visit. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that the office is a outdated and they only take cash or checks... other than that it was great and I'll probably be back.
Old fashioned office. Not much in terms of interaction, I went there to get my eye checked, he gave me an anti-biotic (?) eye drop. Most expensive eye drops I ever used. Worked!
Excellent service. The office itself is "old school" but if you need a primary care doctor for everyday ailments this would be the person to see. Also his receptionist is very approachable and helpful.
Patient, and explained why he was giving me the medications he was. I did not feel rushed at all. I could not believe I was taken in before my appointment time. That was a first!
Verified patient
It was great
Dr. Gould was great. Very professional great bedside manner. Glad he's now my primary care. He answered my questions and gave me some good advise.
