Specialities:

Neurological Surgery

Expertise

Spinal Diseases

I give my patients an active voice, adding my training, knowledge and expertise to solve their specific problems and concerns. I strive to do the right surgery for the right patient at the right time. I try to incorporate motion-sparing options when possible.

I am proud to bring my 20+ years of experience to St. Luke’s Neurosurgical Associates. 

I enjoy caring for adult patients, with a wide range of neurosurgical concerns involving the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spines: the brain; and the pituitary gland, including tumors, degenerative conditions and traumatic injuries. 

Outside of work, I value time with my wife and three sons. We like travel, trivia and word puzzles and are avid sports fans.

“Before our talk, I made clear to Dr. Goldbeg that I did not want to receive any vaccine during my forthcoming surgery visit at St. Luke's Anderson. He answered that "you would not get anything that you did not ask for." Dr. Goldberg then went over the procedure to replace my VNS battery and I was satisfied I would receive the best care”
