I would just like to say every employee, from security to check-in, and our doctor were so welcoming, courteous and nice that it made or visit very pleasant. Thank you. My only request would be to perhaps validate parking or discount it for patients.

I love how Dr Goodman jokes around with the patient. It eases the stress for a child being at a Neurology appointment. He is also EXTREMELY knowledgeable and easy to understand. I will send everyone that needs a neurologist, to him. Five 's! !

Dr. Goodman made me as a parent feel very heard. I had my concerns kind of blown off for a while by a lot of providers with my son. Dr. Goodman listened. He told me I wasn't a paranoid mom, and he was able to evaluate my son and confirm that I wasn't paranoid. My son does have autism. He made me as a parent feel validated, and it helped my son get more treatment that he needs. So now my son is on the wait list for some extra therapies to help him with his behavior, and I no longer have to feel like I need to justify my concerns to people because Dr. Goodman agreed that my concerns are valid. So I really appreciate his help, and my son has on the path to getting help as well. Thank you.
