This man is pretty much everything you want from your surgeon. Excellent bedside manner, extensive and comprehensive experience - a good communicator. He freed me from decades of pain with my arthritic ankle with a total ankle replacement. It's coming up for 5 months now since the operation and I'm well on my way to pain free walking. All post op pain has been soft tissue - there was extensive ligament work needed and my Achilles tendon had not been stretched properly for years. All those issues are being worked on with the physio and in the gym. Every time I walk up a hill pain free, I say a little thank you to you. Mr Goldberg - you are the ''go to guy" for ankles without a doubt and in the nicest possible way, I hope I never see you again!!

I have suffered in pain in my ankle for years and doctors wanted to fuse my ankle stiff so I held off until I turned 54 and then couldn’t put up with the pain any longer. Two surgeons told me that a fusion was the only option for me. Then my chiropractor advised me to see Dr Goldberg, and I am so glad I did - he is such a nice, genuine person and a real expert in his field. He told me an ankle replacement was possible but only if I had my ligaments repaired as my ankle was tilted. I trusted him and his team and he did an amazing job and now I’m back to going on long walks and even got back on my Ski’s last month and am now 56 and have my life back.

Had in-depth discussions with Andy regarding two particular complex patients. He gave a fresh perspective and outlook previously not offered and this was to the advantage of both patients and translated into very good outcomes. This is a surgeon who thinks outside the box and he's also particularly personable. A true professional, outstanding colleague and would highly recommend.

I am so impressed by Dr Goldberg. I ruptured my right Achilles’ tendon and saw him as an emergency last December. The care was spectacular as was his and his teams attention to detail. He advised me I could be treated without surgery in a Vacuum Boot and he sent me a full guide which was my bible and so I knew what to expect and when including when I would be back driving and when I would be back to work and sport. The journey took a long 12 weeks but I felt completely informed and now i feel my function is almost perfect on the right ankle. The reason I’m not quite perfect is that 6 years ago I tore my left Achilles’ tendon (the other one) and saw another doctor and he operated and the communication was shoddy and it has never been right. Now my right side is better than my left which is holding me back. I only wish I had been advised to see Dr Goldberg 6 years ago as now I appear to have tendinitis of the left tendon which is really hard to shift. I really recommend Dr Goldberg as he offers such amazing care and my previous experience was literally not even on the same score sheet let alone at par.
