He treated my son when he was 8 and he is 38 now. We still see him. Honest, trusting and takes time to explain.

I have been going to Dr. Goldsobel and his staff since 1989. My children have gone to him as wel. We all find him compassionate, extremely knowledgeable, and willing to listen. I have asthma that flares with every little cold into bronchitis and wheezing. I am always provided the very latest in treatments. I pray he never retires!

I felt that Dr. Goldsobel didn't listen to me and his medical staff was indifferent. When I went in for testing, I wasn't tested for allergens that are unique to northern California and his staff didn't even measure my weals, with the result being that they found no allergies. When I went to another clinic, I was tested for local allergens and the doctor found significant weals at the injection sites so that I was able to receive antigens for those.
