Dr Gih is the ideal doctor.
Dr Goh did an exam exercise to help determine we're my pain might be coming from and ordered an injection to help with knowing what level my back pain is coming from.
He answers my "many" questions.Would definitely recommend Dr.Goh.
Proficient, relatable physician. Excellent bedside manner without any condescension!
Dr Goh was outstanding. He took the time to get the total picture of what is going on with my body.
Dr. Goh is an exceptional doctor who demonstrates patience, kindness, and genuine care for his patients. He took the time to thoroughly explain my X-ray results in a way I could understand and provided thoughtful suggestions for my aftercare. I truly appreciate his professionalism and attention to detail.
I traveled 5 hrs for my initial visit with Dr Goh. I live In Alabama. I had been told by another doctor that I needed two spinal surgeries.I needed a second opinion. Also, If spinal surgery was truly treatment of choice then I would prefer a surgeon who performs minimally Invasive procedures. Dr Goh listens attentively and asks for clarifying questions. I did not feel rushed. Dr Goh explained my radiologic findings and answered all of my questions. He gave me thorough explanations why further studies and additional consults were necessary in order to give an accurate picture of my health condition. I found Dr Goh to be an exceptional doctor. I am relieved that I was able to see him and I would highly recommend him.
Dr. Got is remarkable. This doctor is one of excellence. I love Dr. Goh and I will recommend him to any and everyone.
Dr. Goh, is very thorough, attentive and thought out. I definitely trust his suggestions.
I have seen many doctors for the many problems and surgeries that I have had on my spine. Dr. Gho by far was the best surgeon I have ever had. In one word he is AMAZING. From the moment he came into the examining room he was very professional. He took the time to explain very thing to me and my daughter in detail. Always asked if we had any questions and if we did he took his time to answer them in detail. I absolutely didn't rush us at all. Matter of fact it was one of the longest appointments that I have ever had with a doctor. I most definitely would recommend Dr. Gho to my family and friends.
I would recommend Emory as the number one source for the care of the spine from the orthopedic center
Dr. Goh has been great. He listens and answers questions about our concerns. I would highly recommend him.
My appointment was with Doctor Goh whom I enjoy very much having as a physician. He is so nice and extremely thorough. He makes sure he goes over everything slowly and at a level you can understand. Also, he is very easy to voice your concerns with. He takes time to explain everything in understandable detail. Plus, he actually lets you talk and he for real listens!
Dr. Goh is very thoughtful and always address concerns fully. He stays a step ahead on caring for his patients. I always get the best care, and he makes me feel safe. I know I will be ok under his care. He also answers questions from my husband who is my care taker.
He took his time explaining the treatment plan with me.
The nursing staff, support staff and Dr. Goh have been incredibly attenuative to my medical condition. I feel that they truly want the best results from my upcoming procedure.
Dr Goh and staff were well lprepared, provided careful clear instructions. Very informative. Very personable. Much more personable than many physicians who hurry to get to the next patient or act condescendingly. Dr. Goh was not. At that moment he was my doctor and present and attentive to my situation not the next patient.
Very satisfied
Our experience is always a good one
I don't know about the last question. I went to see someone else about my concern. They looked at my incision and it was open and cleaned up the pus and took out what was sticking me. Also they could palpate what I was telling them what was hurting. The doctor said it was fine and never touched the bulge around the incision.
The best specialist appointment experience I ever have. The doctor explained and answered all my concerns. I'm glad I went to this clinic. Will recommend forever.
Doctor was good about listening to me about giving me pain meds but he needs to go back to med school because he thought it was kidney stones when I clearly told him it was my back
Very good
Excellent experience.
Very good & Professional.
He listened patiently to my many questions and concerns and answered them making sure that I understood every detail.
My doctor is fabulous.
Provider was very thorough and answered all of my questions.
Dr Goh is excellent
Dr. Goh explained my condition very well, and even broken it down using the analogy of a tooth ache. This was something both my husband and I related too. Thanks Dr. Goh for that!
Like that the Provider wants to be certain of location of problematic area before long term treatment is implemented.
I cant say enough about the thoroughness, professionalism and technical expertise exhibited by Dr. Goh! He always expresses genuine concern, which is extremely reassuring. This has been my experience at all of my pre-op, post-op and particularly while at EUOSH. My wife and I are so happy with the level of care that I've received thus far.
Dr. Got was outstanding with his time with me. He explained my condition to me and how Bad it was. I would be honored to have HIM as my PCP.
No complaints completely satisfied!
All good, went very well.
