I am an OB-GYN. Early in my career I was on ER call and Dr Gottesfeld was the Internist assigned to our emergency room. He would call me when an OB or GYN came into the hospital. After his initial work up on the patient, he always got the diagnosis correct whether it was a miscarriage, pelvic infection, ruptured ovarian cyst or an ectopic pregnancy. I was very impressed with his correct… See more
For several weeks following a family vacation to Europe, my mom wasn't acting normal. Without her own primary care doctor, my mom went to the local urgent care facility where she was sent home with suspected with acute food and some nausea medication. My husband and I--both patients of Doctor Gottesfeld and both out of town--weren't convinced of the diagnoses. We texted Doctor… See more
Dear Dr. Gottesfeld,
If my heart could speak it would speak volumes about what it is like to be cared for by you. There would be one superlative after the next but none could top the feeling that your presence conveys about how good and wonderful it is to be looked after by someone who cares and is dedicated to being current and knowing as much as possible about the attention we need.… See more
Dear Peter,
After our relationship began about 15 years ago we stopped using full names. I came to you because I wanted a physician who knew my name and what my feelings were. When we met in the hospital you would announce to anyone in hearing distance who I was by saying my full name. It humored me because you were showing me that you remembered our conversations. Your personal… See more
Dr. Gottesfeld is one of the best doctors out there. His wonderful treatment and care of my Grandmother made me become a patient of his. He is very caring and always listens fully to my concerns. He spends plenty of time with me and is easy to reach if I have a problem. He goes above and beyond to help his patients. Thank you Dr. Gottesfeld!

Dr. G is my medical security blanket. He is always just a phone call away. Usually, I can see him the same day -- sometimes within an hour or two! He is curious by nature and will research anything he needs more info on. I have a relatively rare illness and in a short time he has become informed enough to communicate with my oncologist as necessary. He and his staff are now important members… See more
We live a life but once and how well we live it depends on many choices. The most important decision I made was finding and making Dr Gottesfeld my prime doctor. I have the utmost confidence that he has my good health in mind every time I see him. He sets the bar high for doctors when it comes to compassion, knowledge, patience and bed side manor. He has his trusty computer with him as he… See more

Through the many years hes been my doctor, Ive been very… See more
