Excellent Dr, quality care
I’ve been going to Dr Goodfellow since she opened her practice at the Barranca office over 20 years ago. She is an excellent physician, in all aspects. She actively listens, she provides good analysis and diagnosis, she prescribes appropriate treatment, and she really provides such excellent care that over the years I just stopped even going to my gynecologist and just go to her. I trust her, she is up to date on relevant medical findings and studies, and I highly recommend her and her wonderful PAs at Irvine Family Care. They are dedicated to high quality care for their patients.

A friend of mine recommended Dr. Goodfellow a couple of years ago and I am so glad. Each visit she takes time to listen and I don’t feel rushed. I’m confident in her decisions and recommendations. I feel very comfortable talking to her. It’s a busy but efficient office.

Dr.goodfellow and her medical assistant Mr.Gonzales are excellent, but her office manager and her assistants should look for jobs other than health care. It takes a caring ,compassionate and understanding person to work in this field.

Dr. Goodfellow is a truly superb family medicine physician. She combines excellent medical diagnostic and treatment skills with marvelous interpersonal skills, warmth, and clear communication. She is fully present when she is in the examining room and follows through promptly when there is a need following an appointment. Dr. Goodfellow has been my family doctor through 23 years of care which has included some serious illness. In addition to the fine quality of medical care she personally provides, she also is thoughtful about the referrals she makes to other specialists. She is simply the best!

Janet Goodfellow runs her business with a sense of moral turpitude. The front office is actually quite friendly; however, there are often layers of superfluous processes and outdated technology that lead to a clunky onboarding process. Regarding the “doctor” specifically, she lacks the skill set and moral compass that is required to provide quality care. Plus, you might not even be able to see the “doctor” when you’re sick, which essentially defeats the purpose of visiting a doctor (beyond preventive care). In OC, there are lots of high quality physicians; hence, there’s no reason to visit “Dr” Goodfellow.
