Steven A. Goodman, DDS

Found Dr Goodman on an Internet search for a geriatric dentist.
I have a family member with severe dementia that needed a replacement bottom denture. This family member was not very cooperative with the facility dentist who in my opinion had no patience.
If you are familiar with dementia you know they can become very agitated very easily. Dr. Goodman was a god send, he has a great bed side manner and with our help was able to get the necessary work done for my family.
Originally it was supposed to be over 4 appointments but he was able to complete it in 3 visits.
His office staff is also top notch. When I found him on the Internet I sent an email explaining my dilemma. Olivia called me the very next day to say she thought that the doctor would be able to help and arranged my appointment for the next available time.
Thanks to Dr. Goodman and his staff my loved one can now enjoy eating normally again and has their new dentures marked with their last name so they can be identified if ever lost again.
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much. But after the first visit which was the roughest, I thought there was a chance it would work. Lo and behold, it worked even better than I imagined.
Dr. Goodman treats all his patients like family, with caring and respect whether young or old.

I acquired Dr. Goodman as my dentist when I acquired my wife. He’s a great dentist and I even drive to Staten Island from NJ and pay the $ 12 toll to see him. That may not sound like much but he must really be good if I am willing to fight the Brooklyn bound traffic to see him. He doesn’t participate in Dental Insurance IN-​Networks. Claims are paid with your insurance companies out-​of-​network benefits option. I don’t have good dental insurance but go to him because he’s worth the extra out of my pocket. Like most things in life… you get what you pay for.
