Thankful my kids have a wonderful doctor!
We have always had a wonderful experience with Dr. Greg Golonka. *** Since that time, he has been an extremely caring doctor who was always a voice of reason in a sea of many doctors we had to see for our daughter during her *** stay in the hospital after her birth. We will always sincerely appreciate his kindness and professionalism with regard to our daughter and the EXTREMELY stressful time we were living in. Since *** our daughter has grown into an amazing young woman, who continues to mature and develop into a beautiful person we weren't sure we'd have the joy of raising at that time. We had very scary moments. We will always be grateful for having Dr. Golonka in our lives.
Dr Golonka is an excellent doctor! He always answers our questions and never makes me feel silly for any questions I have.
Dr. Golonka is the best pediatrician especially for special needs patients.
We love Doctor Golonka and he's been our pediatrician the last *** years. Recommend him to everyone.
Dr. Golonka has been our pediatrician for the last *** years. He is both conservative and realistic in his approach to medicine. Which my husband and I love. *** I make the appointment and have our kids see him, because he is an amazing doctor. My kids have always felt comfortable when seeing him and inevitably we laugh during the appointment. Having kids of his own he understands the tough stuff in raising kids, which is so important for a parent coming to see a doctor.
Office is always clean, and quick! Doctor Golonka and staff is prompt and present. Appreciate the reassurance as a new parent.
Dr. Golonka spent a good amount of time providing advice & expertise on how to treat my daughter's sickness. We also very much appreciated the follow up call that he personally made to us regarding test results.

Dr. Golonka has provided excellent care for both our kids for over 15 years . We drive 45 minutes to see him because we are so happy with the care provided. He is caring and very good at what he does.
We always feel seen and well taken care of at Dr. Golonka's office.
Dr. Greg was very thorough and aware of the embarrassing nature of my son's medical concern. He offered him privacy as well as support, if he wanted another person (Other than his mom) in for the exam. Overall, he worked very hard to make *** feel comfortable and in control of the appointment.

Dr. Golanka is the best provider I have ever had for my children. They look forward coming to see him. This provider makes the whole experience pleasant ,seamless and he truely shows he cares!
We had a very poor experience with the medical assistant during this appointment so much so that we are likely looking for a new pediatrician office.
Dr Golanka listens and respects parental wishes

Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
