Matthew A. Goldstein, D.O.

As a born and raised New Yorker, I am ecstatic about returning home and providing care for the community that gave so much to me throughout my childhood. Before starting medical school, I served in a volunteer fire department, caring for people in their time of need. Those experiences further inspired me to continue my journey towards becoming a physician. Now, after completing my training, I specialize in treating critically ill children requiring the highest level of care including those with sepsis, heart failure, liver failure, pneumonia, and kidney failure. Here at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone, I am part of a team that provides exceptional care for our most vulnerable patients.

My goal is to treat you and your child as family as we navigate their healthcare journey together. No one wants their child to be in the intensive care unit—and I am passionate about creating a comfortable environment ensuring open communication, understanding, and trust when treating children.

I am particularly interested to improving care in children with liver failure or undergoing liver transplantation. I enjoy collaborating with the hepatologists, transplant surgeons, pharmacists, dieticians, social workers and case managers—a team-based approach to ensuring optimal support for patients and families. My clinical research is focused on transplant critical care and optimizing outcomes in this inspiring group of patients.
