Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

One of the best doctors I’ve had
He is very easy to talk to and he’s very thorough. Have nothing bad to say about him and would recommend him always

Dr. Goula Is an Awesome Doctor. He is very knowledgeable. I was a former patient of Dr. Goula's when he was at St. Vincent's in Worcester and I wish he wasn't so far away now or he still would be my doctor! I have a horrible primary now. Who is very cold and has no compassion.

Since I moved to RI 3 years ago, I have been a patient of Dr. Goula’s. I am older, have had experience with doctors from other states and I have found Dr. Goula to be an excellent doctor. He listens to all of my concerns and prescribes just the right medication. He is very knowledgeable and patient. I would definitely recommend him.

Goula Should be in prison. Carelessly prescribed OxyContin and other Percocets with no information. When expressing my concern to him about it he stated that he was a doctor and ‘knew’ what he was doing. Boy was he wrong.

Dr. Goula is a gentle, caring, and non-judgemental soul. He is a good diagnostician and will take the time to discuss your concerns and his ideas. I always feel like he has all the time in the world, and that my health is very important to him.
