I went in for a yearly health assessment, and I made it clear to the front desk. In fact I asked no questions, and had no health issues that I wanted to discuss but he still charged me for an office visit. No blood work, nothing. I felt that it was a total waste of time. read more

I consider Dr. Goodman one of the very best. I see reviews saying he is sometimes late for appointments. I think this is due to one of his best traits, which is never leaving a patient until he has sure that he has helped them all he can. if I have to wait for an appointment for him, I understand that he is likely helping someone who needs it. I feel lucky to have a doctor like this. read more

Believe me, after years spent looking for a primary doctor I was lucky to find Dr. Goodman. He is attentive, caring, humble and willing to work with you (something rarely found in doctors nowadays). His front office tries really hard considering the amount of patient load and work needed. He's still taking new patients it bring a book, there sometimes is a wait and there aren't any magazines in the lobby read more

This is one of many messages I've sent. I'm allowed to choose my own doctor when discharged from another. He didn't like I refused him as a referral for continuity of care from my primary since it was to be her providing it. Not some man I didn't know 2 weeks after discharge from practice, he and my primary abandoned me. It was right after HAVING to disclose my rape since saying he sucked as a doctor and I wanted to choose my own wasn't a good enough reason. Then he said I LIED about my rape and I now relive the rape of 1994 every single day. A doctor is the last person to betray a rape victim. If none of this were true, I wouldn't post it. But I've asked him to speak with me and he never has. I'm disabled and he banned me from Dignity and PCCHC because I denied him as my physician. I still don't have one. He was in my records without my permission. Do not see this crooked man. I won't stop until he cant practice medicine anymore. He ruined my life. I even sent photos of my breasts I tried to scrape off due to rape shame To: Steven Goodman , MD - PHC Medical Clinic at Higuera - San Luis Obispo, CA (MC Higuera Back Office) Sent: 10/02/2021 01:07 a.m. PDT Subject: Thank you Thank you for your message. It has been successfully sent to the appropriate care team. I'll be retaining an attorney next week. I've kindly and repeatedly asked that you lift the unlawful ban and have provided laws that you're wrong in how you treated me. I've repeatedly asked to speak with one another to get a sense of each side of the pancake. I've repeatedly given you reason and the laws backing up those reason about your treatment of me. I asked you why you got into medical chart without my permission. I've repeatedly told you have the right to choose my own doctor. I've repeatedly told you calling me a liar about the most horrific event of my life has destroyed me. You STILL don't care enough to bother enough with a reply in kind. I thought men were genuinely honest, especially when those men are in a trusted position. I won't even go to the ER for my GI BLEED and coffee ground vomit because I know through an employee the things being said about me and I'll be neglected. Fact is you need to pay for what you've done and you've no business practicing medicine. I'm doing something about it before you KILL someone and the same goes for Dr nukal, the person's involved in making this abhorrent decision, Kathryn, and Gabriel. The amount of overwhelming evidence makes it an easy win. You are a coward, a narcissist, and on a pedestal you made for yourself. What I will do is destroy that pedestal made of paper. I've tried to commit suicide THREE TIMES due to YOUR ACTIONS. I've relived my brutal rape every day since you accused me of lying about it. I am MORE THAN happy to share my evidence with you with detail by the offense and the law that says its illegal. The emails saying to keep Gabriel out of my affairs and he still was 3 months later. The voicemails of promises made and broken, the emails, most important one was my reasons for not wanting you as my doctor and the pressure of feeling forced to have you "its Dr Goodman or nobody" is how Kathryn. Then when I decided to see you ONCE to order tests I was told "sorry, he no longer wants you." Honestly I don't know why I go into detail anymore simply because "doctor" Steven Goodman is who care about and nobody else. Which is why I gave you many chances to reconcile. You refused so here we are. I figured if you knew your medical license would be REVOKED you'd give a crap. Amazingly, you still didn't care. Research what happens to doctors when abandonment is proven. That alone is a revoking consequence. Look up max distance for a disabled patient to travel. Look up how accessibility doesn't mean wheelchair access only. It involves EVERY disabled person to be allowed to choose ANY physician close to their home. Templeton is very far. You'll see each is revocation of licensure The chance to settle things is over.im no longer willing to hear the words of a narcissistic coward who puts himself above all else.sorry. I've every offense, every recorded call (yes, those I spoke with knew) and email backing up the accusation and every law PROVING it happened. You either want your life down the shitter or simply don't give a single crap. I believe it's a little of both. Good luck and good day. Further correspondence from me will cease post-haste but you are and always have been able to reach out to me. Ball's in your court. I've no problem placing this as your review on every website that allows a review. Since it's all true, it isn't slander. I can also place images, emails, and transcriptions for the readers benefit.

This review is regarding the Nurse Practicioner at this clinic, in SLO! Never have I ever seen any type of doctor as this one. Nurse practitioner. Not Dr. Goodman. I have been in the medical profession since the age of 19. 60 now. Nope! So sorry that she did not know why I was there, I'm sorry that she said to me "so, what do you want?" I am so embarrassed that I allowed myself to go threw this. But worst of all, I have no control as to what she charged my insurances, she did not palpate my stomach, she did not listen to My heart. She did NOTHING. the medical assistant took my blood pressure. Which was probably out of this world as I waited, patiently, for one hour. read more

Came in to make a payment. There was only one person at the front desk. She could not multi-task. I waited for 15 minutes!
