The only Urologist I'll ever see.. I went to UMC Quick care 3 times and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. One short visit to Dr. Golden, and he got it right. He was not only knowledgeable and very nice, but also took the time to even show me the results under the microscope! Who does that??? He's the best Dr. I've seen. I'll will continue to go to him, and only him.

Kidney Cancer. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Golden. I sincerely feel he saved my life. While running an abdominal scan for some stomach problems, they accidently found a large mass on my left kidney. My family doctor immediately referred me to Dr. Golden. Dr Golden ordered another scan with contrast to get a better view of the location of the mass. Due to the location and size of the mass, he recommended that he remove the whole kidney. The risk of infection and complication by trying to remove just the mass was too great. It ultimately was my final decision and I decided to follow his recommendation. He made me no promises but he thoroughly explained how he intended to make four small incisions (1/4" to 1") in length to get everything out. The morning before the surgery, he met with my husband and went in details to explain him what was going to take place. I honestly and truly felt I was in good hands. When I woke up from surgery, all I had was four small incisions, the longest (1") through my belly button. I was in the hospital two days and went to see Dr Golden one week after my surgery for a follow up. He explained that the cancer was malignent and

aggresive but he removed everything; no need for radiation or chemotherapy. My surgery took place in Nov. 2008 and Dr Golden sends me for scans every three months. So far, everything's been just fine! Too sum up, if you are seeing a Urologist and are not totally comfortable, get a second opinion and see Dr Golden. He truly is the best!

Dr. Goden robotic surgery success. Dr, Golden and the Da Vinci procedure have preserved my husband's urologic and sexual functiions. His expertise with the robotic procedure has made a 56 year old man and his wife very happy! We were very impressed with Dr. Golden, the hospital and the staff in both his offices and the hospital. Any man considering surgery for prostate cancer needs to see Dr. Golden and learn about the robotic procedure. My husband is only 10 days post op and is feeling fantastic! There is a positive future after a prostatectomy. Thanks Dr. Golden!

Awesome Doctor and staff!. Gentlemen, do yourself a favor and have annual PSA/Prostate screenings. Painless procedure that could save your life. I recently had a prostrate biopsy performed by Dr Golden and many years of dread and fear. What a waste of time and needless fear. The procedure was nearly painless, somewhere between that of a haircut and a flu shot.

Dr Golden is awesome, his staff is caring, and your questions and fears will be answered and addressed. Be a hero, take care of yourself, call Dr Golden with any male related issues.

Best of Las Vegas - if there was a catagory for Dr's!. This Dr is caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable. He was quick to react to my issues, especially since it was such a surprise issue that happened. He?s been a wonderful support, and he should be sought out by anyone in the Las Vegas area searching for a GOOD UROLOGIST! He has 2 offices (1) in Henderson, and (1) in Las Vegas at San Martin (Thus Appts Only ? for now). YOU GO DR. GOLDEN!! ? YOU ARE THE BEST OF LAS VEGAS PERPETUALLY ? Too bad there isn?t a category for Good physicians in ?Best of Las Vegas? ? You?d be there repeatedly every year!

Excellent experience - kidney cancer surgery. I was referred to Dr. Golden when my doctor found a mass in my kidney. I was surprised at how much time Dr. Golden took to look over my films with me and explained the treatment options without confusing me with medical lingo. We decided to freeze the tumor with "laparoscopic cryoablation." The surgery went great and I was able to leave the hospital the DAY AFTER SURGERY! I had very little pain and got back to my usual activities in about a week. Dr. Golden has a great bedside manner and I felt very confident in his abilities. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone that needs a good urologist! Thank You!
