5.0 star star star star starDr Goldman is a knowledgeable, reassuring, and confident surgeon who goes above and beyond what is necessary. He is extremely professional and takes as much time as you need to be educated about your condition, what he intends to do, and what you can expect afterward. He definitely knows what he’s doing. My surgery went just as he said and I’m recovering nicely. Both my husband and I would highly recommend him.

Disclosures
External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
