Dr. Godkar is a wonderful discovery as my new physician. Patient, articulate, comforting, complimentary and truthful, he has saved my life wherein I was told I was three days away from death. His follow up visits are thorough, optimistic and caring. He seems never rushed and maintains a humble humility in his practice and in the medical volunteer work he carries on abroad. We are lucky he has become an American citizen.

Doctor Godkar spends time with you, making sure you understand fully and he will explain things in terms that you would understand. He remembers you, you are just not another patient or number. My husband sees Doctor Godkar after a heart attack. We trust him totally
