I went to Dr. Goldberg last year for allergy testing and then decided to continue going to him for allergy shots. He is a great guy, very laid back with a dry sense of humor. I would really highly recommend him except for one issue.... waiting time to get the allergy shots.
Please take my review with a grain of salt because things could have changed since I stopped going there but... on the days that I got my allergy shots in the Alexandria office, the wait time was excruciating.
The shortest time I ever had to wait was a little over an hour, the longest was close to three hours. This does not include the 15-20 minute wait time after the shot. The patient's time is important too and who wants to sit in a doctor's office every week for 2-3 hours at a time? His waiting room was always packed with patients waiting for their shots, some arriving an hour or two before the official start time. After I don't remember how many treatments, I decided I couldn't hack the wait time anymore.
Again, Dr. Goldberg's Alexandria office could have changed the process since I stopped going and the process may be more streamlined in his other office.
Dr. Goldberg really is knowledgeable and barring the other stuff, I can recommend him for general testing, etc. and would give him five stars for that alone. I thing he's gotten high ratings in other Washington D.C. publication magazines for best rated doctors, he deserves those ratings. However, on the wait times for allergy shots, my rating would be a one star. read more
