I followed Dr. Murphy to Schneck Memorial, where this procedure could have been completed a month ago, however my faith in Dr. Golden resulted in my request for him to treat my current condition. My frustration is not with his office, but with the lack of pathology services.

Dr Golden provides excellent care. He was my surgeon in 2018 and discovered a sarcoma in my leg. I fully trust his discernment and skills as a surgeon.

Dr. Golden is one of the best. He told me exactly what was wrong, and what could be done. During the procedure he kept me advised of what was happening and asked me several times if I was having any pain or issues. Very kind and caring doctor.
