Client Quote
“Dr. Eric Goldsmith has treated me for over 13 years now. He is a true professional. I’ve been out of the hospital and in remission since 1992. I can tell you without a doubt that one of the prime reasons I’ve come so far in my recovery in recent years is because of Dr. Goldsmith. He listens to me and he gives me feedback. He is ethical and compassionate. I get the sense that he cares about me as a person, not just as a patient. I trust him 100 percent.”
