He tells it like it is. If I wanted to be molly coddled I would have seen a social worker. He may seem cold but he isn’t. He’s a fine doctor with experience and does a great job with his patients.

Dr.Getz performed a Colonoscopy & Endoscopy on me over the course of a year. He is a very skilled physician and did his very best to make me informed of the procedures and aftercare. Dr.Getz is to the point and doesn't mix words or get touchy freely when dealing with my care. I didn't want a condescending demeanor from my doctor and was very pleased in getting the best care without holding my hand and patting me on the head just to make me feel good. Dr.Getz does what he says he's going to do and does it and that's all you should expect from a professional.Thank You Dr.Getz!

Dr. Goetz and his team did a great job. Made me very comfortable and were friendly and caring.

Dr. Goetz was very pleasant, meet with me both before and after procedure. Although due to weather, running about a 1.5 hrs behind schedule. I didn't feel I was being rushed.

Although Dr. Goetz's bedside manner isn't the greatest, he is a very good doctor and I would recommend him and the staff at the Burnt Hills facility.

I'm surprised reading the reviews about Dr. Goetz. I found him to be patient in answering my questions and explaining next steps. I got the impression he was managing expectations. As far as making appointments, I blame office management. There must be another system that can manage appointments thoughtfully. I actually think the C-19 has made the Dr.s/advance practioners more available with video appointments. 4 stars for Goetz / 1 star for office management.

I found Dr.Goetz to be a very good professional as is his staff. He explained the procedure fully and felt very comfortable. He did what I expected a specialist to do. The whole experience was what I expected. A procedure completed in the way it should have been done. No bells or whistles just great care.

I had seen Dr. Goetz while a patient at Saratoga Hospital. He came in the room, introduced himself, told me he was taking me for an endoscopy that afternoon and never saw him after the procedure (and I had an ulcer). Definitely would NOT recommend him. The office staff was rude when I tried to make a follow up appt after discharge from the hospital, which I did not make. Does not care about you.

If I could give Dr. Goetz zero stars, I would. He was very dismissive of my concerns, and would only prescribe a treatment plan that already wasn't working (horrific side effects of liver toxicity, fatigue [sleeping 16 hours/day] and short term memory loss), and wouldn't consider other treatment options because the would be harmful to a foetus if I (a woman married to another woman AND taking birth control [what can I say, I hate cramps]) were to get pregnant. He said there was "still a risk" that it could happen or that my wife wouldn't be able to conceive and then I would want to carry (which I told him we had already discussed and decided that we would adopt in that case). In addition, every other specialist I have spoken with since agrees that the treatment plan he had me on was complete overkill and unnecessary. I have switched to another doctor in the same practice and am MUCH happier.
