Dr. Golinko has been very caring during the time he has cared for me. He explained the seriousness of the injury I received and how best to treat me. He did a great job of putting my broken face back together.

Very rushed, did not seem interested in receiving background on my child or discussing care plan. It seemed my child wasn't high-needs enough to warrant doctors' attention after he identified that the case wasn't surgical, yet still wants us to come back for another visit. Doctor was in and out of room in 5 minutes.
