List of William Ward Goodman's Reviews
Best Doctor I’ve ever had he did both my knees in 2020. Mercy was crazy to let him go.
Reviewed On HealthGrades
Dr. Goodman is the best. Cox is very fortunate to get him from Mercy and have him on staff. Very personable and easy to put your trust into. He listened to the issue and easily took care of it.

Dr. Goodman is one of the best doctors and Mercy is fortunate to have him on staff. Absolutely brilliant and I will always trust him. He listened to me when others did not. Truly impressed!

I seen him in October of 2020 for a cortisone injection for shoulder pain, I had seen him a couple of times before for that reason. He told me that it probably wouldn’t do any good and that I needed shoulder replacement. I said I would think about it. I spoke to my primary care doctor and told him Dr. Goodman wouldn’t give me an injection and he told me to go back and Dr. Goodman would give me an injection for pain. I scheduled an appointment, told them I was coming for an injection. Got there and had to refuse X-ray, I had all that in October. Waited 40 minutes or so, Dr came in and said I needed surgery and I couldn’t have a injection because I’ve not had a Covid-19 vaccine yet. So now I’m paying for office visit for nothing, Dr Goodman is only out to do surgery, I feel like if they couldn’t help me they should have saved me the visit, Dr. Goodman’s remarks for after visit was I had came to see him to discuss shoulder surgery, That’s a total lie. So I paid for 2 visits and got noth.

There is no better surgeon than Dr Goodman. He did both my knee replacements absolutely perfectly. Of course a patient has to follow instructions to a T and be committed to the daily effort of physical therapy instruction at home as well as the clinic. I would highly recommend Dr Goodman to anyone wanting the best for themselves. He is the best no doubt about it. Watch out world here comes Bionic woman!!

I waited over an hour. Doctor never once explained ex-rays. Just harper on me losing 100 lbs. Wanted me to have a weight loss surgery. No way. I have a neice fighting for her life because of one. What he wanted I already heard ins and outs from oldest daughter. No way. He was very rude. My hip pain meant nothing to him. Just losing weight.

Most horrible visit ever with an Ortho. My Ortho retired. I was not given results of all the ex-rays he took. All he could talk about was weight loss surgery and losing 100 lbs. So I won't be getting hip replacement my RA Dr. Requested.

My visit was a nightmare. He wouldn't listen. He never shared results of ex-rays. All he harper on was me losing 100 lbs. If you weigh over 150 don't go to him as waste of time. He kept harping on surgery procedure which my daughter just had. He wouldn't listen to anything I said. So I'm back on pain meds.

Dr. Goodman and his PA. Jessica have provided excellent orthopedic care to both myself and my significant other. Would highly recommend him for Orthopedic care.
