I have been a patient of Dr. Golden for a little over 3 years...shortly after having recovered from a Meningitis that left me with a few issues in my immune system. I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude for the outstanding care, warmth and dedication she's been providing me all this time. She works hard and cares for her patients. She's an outstanding doctor and professional… See more

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
With over two decades' experience practicing internal medicine on Manhattan's Upper East Side, I have learned something simple - the better I know you, the better I am able to advise you and deliver optimal care tailored to your needs. In these hectic times, one of the most valuable resources I have as a physician remains the time I can spend with you. It is my privilege to know each of my patients personally. In my office, you will be cared for as if you were a member of my family.
My style is direct and warm, and my approach is comprehensive and holistic. In addition to managing illness, I have a strong personal interest in wellness care, integrative practices and proactive, preventive medicine that is designed to keep you at your healthiest.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Golden
A little late for Dr.’s Day but I’ve been traveling. To me it was amusing that MDVIP was boasting about the added attention I’d get from my doctor because Dr. Golden gave me the same individual time and attention before she joined the organization. Then a couple of weeks ago another of my doctors detected an occasional arrhythmia and wanted me to see Dr. Golden right away (I live 2 1/2 hours… See more
After prescribing a routine heart artery scan Dr. Golden noticed something on my lung that she recommended be further investigated. It turned out to be an early stage lung cancer that was resolved through surgery. I believe the outcome would not have been good if it wasn’t identified at an early stage.
Dr Golden has always been available for me. Not only me but my Mother as well All over many years. I thank her for her availability kindness and professionalism Thank you Dr Golden
Dear MDVIP: How fortunate was I to be guided to Dr. Flavia Golden IN NEW YORK CITY. After 30 years together my previous MD retired and suggested Dr. Golden. I approached with trepidation as change in medical matters is always disconcerting! Dr. Golden has now been my physician for 4 years. Because of my profession I am often in the four corners of the world or in very rural settings. She is… See more
I've never in my 72 years had a doctor so engaged, so helpful but also such a pleasure to see. She engages on every level - we love seeing her because she's not just a great GP, and on top of all things that keeps healthy, she's also smart and up-to-date and she laughs and makes us laugh. Seeing our doctor is always a pleasure. That's not common. She's the best doctor… See more

I am grateful for being led to Dr. Golden. My previous physician retired and I dreaded starting over with someone. The relationship with a doctor is highly specific and personal and to find someone dedicated to their patients' well being, physical and mental, is a joy. In the midst of the chaos of NYC seeing this doctor makes me think this kind of attention is what it must have been like… See more
