    I was extremely impressed with my experience with this group. I feel really lucky to receive medical care here. Drs. Durr, Chang and Goldberg were extremely persistent in communication with me. Dr. Goldberg was very compassionate and really put me at ease both pre-op and post-op. As someone who is newer to San Francisco, I am consistently blown away by the standard of care at UCSF.

    I assume by "Care Provider" you are referring to my examining physician. He was both professional and friendly, quick and informative. I felt at ease and well cared for.

    I can't say enough good things about Dr. Goldberg. He is extremely thorough, gives great explanations and is very caring. He even called me at home twice to see how I was doing post-surgery.

    I am continually amazed at the quality of care I receive at UCSF. Dr. Andrew Goldberg is not only a competent and compassionate surgeon, but a kind instructor toward not only his interns and residents but also toward patients like me who have many questions. Feeling listened to and heard by medical practitioners is a rare in my experience except when I am at UCSF. Well Done and Keep up the Great Work

    Dr. Goldberg was exceptional! Extremely pleased with my experience after one visit. I had seen a previous provider for my issue and left disappointed (I was seen for only 5 minutes). Dr. Goldberg took care and time to explain everything that he was seeing and thinking about in his diagnosis. Very pleased.
