David H. Goetz

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

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 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.

Let this incident be known to all current and potential patients of the Saratoga Schenectady Gastroenterology Associates located at 848 Rt. 50, Burnt Hills, NY 12027. On June 24, 2021, a deaf 89 year old patient was denied her appt. with Dr. David Goetz. The patient, being driven to her appt. by a family member, was delayed en route to the appt. by an accident on Rt. 146 in Clifton Park. The patient arrived 8 MINUTES late. The staff member at the front desk SUPPOSEDLY spoke to Dr. Goetz who said the appointment would need to be rescheduled, insisting that she was 10 minutes late. The family member pleaded with the staff member stating that the patient was not feeling well and needed to see the doctor, but was still denied. How cold and callous could Dr. Goetz and his staff be to a deaf, 89 year old patient who had been seeing this doctor for 7 years? Shame on them! Hurt and in tears, the patient asked for a copy of her medical record to seek another gastroenterologist.
