The doctor and his team work together to make this intimidating process as easy as possible. Explanations and instructions are clear and understandable. All staff are helpful, caring, and friendly. The business end of the practice is well run.

After meeting Doctor, I was confident I made the
Right choice. I did my research as he is from NJ
my home state.His staff are all so considerate and the Seaside Surgery group were so caring and made me feel relaxed prior to the surgery.
Also, Ryan Nelson is a added plus to the staff.

Could not have been better.

Dr. Steven Goldberg is an exceptionally bright, humble, and caring Orthopedic Surgeon and human being. He’s honest and takes his time to explain everything you need to know prior to, during, and following your surgery. His educational background and experience are exceptional, and he has treated athletes from the school to professional levels, as well as those, like me, previously a Phys. Ed. Teacher and Coach, who needed a total shoulder replacement. It’s not easy to find a surgeon in a small town with such a stellar reputation BUT Dr. Goldberg IS that wonderful human being. Praise must also go to his very organized staff and Denise Riester, Dr.Goldberg’s Office Administrator who is the kindest, most caring, and concerned person we’ve dealt with. She makes it all happen! Now... if we could only clone Dr. Goldberg and Denise, etc., how great would that be?!!! Thank you, Dr. Goldberg and staff.

Dr. Goldberg’s new shoulder replacement procedure was very successful for me. I was surprised that the level of pain in this procedure was very low. It has been over two years now and my shoulder feels great. I would highly recommend Dr. Goldberg for this procedure.

Shoulder replacement with his innovative implants produce no pain & a faster recovery time.

Dr Goldberg is incredible and I am so thankful he did the operation on my shoulders. I had to have a complete shoulder replacement on both shoulders and it was so easy it was crazy. One day in the hospital, one day on pain meds. Easy, peasy. Dr Goldberg is easy to talk to and takes as much time as you need. Before he operated I could't do anything because of the pain. He is a celebrated surgeon and I am lucky to have had him.

Doctor Goldberg is a skilled surgeon. He is very personable and has a wonderful office staff. I highly recommend him. If you are having second thoughts about having shoulder surgery go on in and meet him and his staff. When I mention to anyone about my two surgeries (left repair and right replacement) they know of Dr Goldberg reputation and are very complementary.

Dr Goldberg is as kind as he is competent; as sincere as he is skilled. He repaired my badly damaged R shoulder with a Total reverse rotator cuff replacement. After 4 1/2 months of extensive P.T. I regained about 1/2 of my normal mobility...enough so that I could put my hair in a "pony tail" with my right arm. (; I am in his debt for giving me enough mobility to live an active outdoor life hiking in the hills of Vermont.

Did a great job in explaining surgery and what to expect. Surgery went extremely well and the pain after one day was minimal. I was surprised how well the recovery went and had little or no pain. Very happy with results!

I am one year post op from rotator cuff surgery and doing better than I ever expected. Dr Goldberg is not only an excellent surgeon but he is very caring and understanding. His explanation of the procedure before surgery was very good and followup appointments were always right on. I will forever be grateful to Dr Goldberg for giving me my life back. The office staff also deserves a shout out because they also made this difficult year much more tolerable. I would recommend Dr Goldberg to anyone with shoulder problems.

On October 15,2019, Dr. Goldberg operated on my shoulder to repair Rotator cuff tears,subscapularis tears and clean up some other issues impacting my shoulder. The surgery was a success and I am way ahead of schedule in getting back to golf 3-4 times a week and using my arms in other activities.

I was skeptical on having surgery in SW Florida as I was very comfortable with surgery up North where I have had a number of surgical procedures including C4, 5, 6 fusion, L2, 3, 4,5, hip replacement and knee surgery.

I spent time researching Surgeons in Southern Florida before selecting Dr. Goldberg based upon his experience, reputation, and focus as well as recommendations. My recovery is a function of Dr. Goldberg's excellent skill. His staff is excellent as is the Seaside Surgical Center.I highly recommend Dr. Goldberg and his team.

After attending a local leadership presentation and learning about Dr Goldberg and his unique shoulder replacement procedure, I made an appointment. From the very first moment in his office, I knew i made the correct decision. The office staff are incredibly caring and professional. Dr Goldberg takes the time to do an thorough evaluation as well as sit and answer all of my questions. I was always made to feel like I was the only patient in the office.
Having gone through shoulder replacement before, i was hesitant to have my other shoulder done. As of today, I am 6 weeks post-op with Dr G. I am truly thankful and amazed how well i am doing in such a short period of time. The operative procedure went very well. I can barely see the incision. My range of motion is far ahead of schedule and I am making progress everyday with my new shoulder. I plan to be back in the gym soon. Dr Goldberg and his staff have done a wonderful job. I can't thank them enough.

I am an 83 year old woman who's been active all of my life. However, for the past 6 months, I had been in excruciating pain in my right shoulder. I was told by my former Orthopedic Dr. that I was bone on bone. Every time I moved, I'd experience a jolt of pain. Over the next few months I lost the use of my whole right arm and hand and couldn't even write my name without pain.
When I moved to Naples, I met several people who mentioned Dr. Goldberg in glowing terms. I had my shoulder replacement surgery on Oct. 7th. When I woke up, I experienced a different kind of pain. This disappeared within a day. The following days I was astonished that I was completely pain free! I sailed through rehab and home therapy. My only problem was to try to slow down! I wanted to resume all my activities right away. I was told that I had to be patient and let the deep muscles repair themselves.
If you are reading this narrative, you are Blessed to have Dr. Goldberg in your area.

I have put off my shoulder replacement for too long. I could not lift things, put my belt on, hard to sleep because of pain....generally I was handicapped. I am skittish when it when it comes to surgery. I was bone on bone i
n my shoulder and I heard crunching sounds when I moved my arm.
Dr Goldberg performed a miracle for me! As soon as I was in recovery, I HAD NO PAIN, I took a pain pill because I was told to take it,, not because I needed it. The second day was the same, no pain but a pain pill. That was it. Therapy is helping me regain full motion to my shoulder. I can do commercials for Dr Goldberg. I cannot believe how painless and perfect my surgery went. I have to have a shoulder replacement on my other arm, No worry or hesitation for me..I hope you all believe me because it sounds impossible .....for me this was a miracle..Gary W. Donner

Dr Goldberg did an outstanding job of repairing my torn rotator cuff. After a little physical therapy I now have full motion and usage of my shoulder. The surgery center was great as is his office staff. Dr Goldberg spends the time to make you comfortable with the surgery and recovery..Great job all around!

i had a serious fall where i dislocated my shoulder by 10 inches after therapy and MRI it was decided i needed rotator cuff surgery Dr Goldberg did an excellent job and m back to normal

I waited too long before getting my shoulder replacement scheduled. The procedure and recovery were successful and I feel like it is back to normal in just 6-9 months. The actual recovery was very short, pain was gone the day after surgery and I wish I had done this sooner. The doctor and staff at the office and hospital were all excellent. I appreciate all the concern, care and reassurance I had gotten during my treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Goldberg for his skills and using the CSR shoulder is amazing. Golfing and pickleball is back on!

No problems after the surgery. Started rehab immediately and worked at home also. No pain except some stiffness that was easily worked out. After four three weeks of rehab I started easy workouts for my triathlon training. After six weeks I continued my workouts but added a more strenuous pace. The first few days after surgery there was very little pain and none after a few more days. I took first place in the Captiva Trtathlon in the 80 and over age group. None of this would have been possible without Dr. Goldberg doing the rotator cuff surgery. Stuart Wahl

Dr. Goldberg and his entire staff were wonderful. They were professional, caring, and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions and supported me through all the procedures. Thank you to the entire staff at Pine Ridge and Seaside Surgery Center.
