I have been going to Dr Goodine since late 70's she is the best doctor I wouldn't trust anyone else.She listens and she keeps digging till she finds out whats wrong with you. She helped me get an early diagnosis on my Multiple Sclerosis and for that I am doing excellent. She always follows up with you personally if its something that needs taken care of immediately she doesn't leave it up to her staff or nurses. I don't know what I am going to do when she retires. She is the very best Doctor. I truly recommmend her if you want a thorough and determined Doctor to get to the root of your problem she is the one. If you want someone who gives you what you want no she will only do whats in your best interest.

Dr. Goodine is the consumate professional. I trust here implicitly. She stays up to date with her medical training and knowledge. I bounced around from doctor to doctor looking for someone who could diagnose and treat me properly. I started going to her about 15 years ago and I can't imagine going to anyone else. She treats me like an individual - not a number. I whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Glenda Goodine. I don't know if I would be able to trust another physician as much as I trust her.

Dr Goodine is an excellent diagnostician. She reviews your labs thoroughly, calls you when needed to discuss serious results and referrals and is up to date on all the newest medical information. She may not always do what YOU want her to do...but YOU may not always know what is best for YOU! I would highly recommend Dr Goodine and her staff is helpful, polite, professional and knowledgable.

I have a rare defect that has been misdiagnosed by several doctors. Dr. Goodine was not quick to treat the symdones but used her knowledge to sort through the signs. I was having gallbadder attacks, liver infection and kidney problems. I am a diabetic with asthma. She stepped through my illness to discover the root cause... thanks to her we discovered I was suffering from Hemochomis.... a genic defect that kills the carrier before they reach 60yo. Thanks to her she saved my life, my son's life and all my brothers and sisters. We are all in treatment and I'm feeling good about my future. She may act alittle cold, but I find that she is so intent on treating me (and making me treat myself also)that it so easy to think she is distanced. If you're looking for a doctor to cater to your whims, then Dr. Goodine is not for you. If you want good care, no-nonsense feedback, and a doctor willing to partner with you so you can take better care of yourself... then call her today.

I have been her patient for 15 years. She is very caring.Dr Goodine is an excellent physician.I too have had to see assc when she was booked-but I have found them to be very competent and I don't mind waiting as they will take time with me and my concerns.Dr Goodine has called me back at night to reply to my questions-when it was not urgent.She has a very busy practice but I don't feel I am herded around. Her nurses are good and attentive. Dr Goodine is an excellent physician.

Almost always have to see a PA rather than the doctor, esp if you're needing to see her in a reasonably short time. She (or PA) won't treat more than 2 conditions at a time, seemingly even if conditions are related. Will write prescriptions with few or no refills so you have to come back repeatedly just for regular meds. Cold bedside manner; lacks empathy; can make any relatively healthy patient feel like a hypochondriac. Money-hungry & detached...avoid this doctor & her staff! All the same notes go for her husband, Dr. Thomas Murphy, at the same group family practice in Pasadena.
