My situation is a little rare but I found out in March that my right kidney had no blood flow in it and it was basically dead. I saw 3 other specialist before I saw Dr Golden and all 3 told me to leave my kidney in and not have it removed that it was a congenital issue. In August I saw Dr. Golden because I was having some back pain. The minute I met with him he made me feel so comfortable. He recommended I remove my kidney right away due to being high risk for infection. The 2 weeks before my surgery I woke up in the middle of the night in the worst pain of my life. My husband rushed me to the ER and they told me my kidney was infected. They put a catheter in the kidney to drain it to relieve the pain. The day after this procedure they sent me home until my sugery. The next day my hospital doctor called me to tell me my blood was infected from the infection and I had to go back to the hospital right away to be admitted. I stayed in the hospital another 5 days because the infection was so bad. I finally got to have my surgery the following week. I wish I had met with Dr. Golden sooner because I wouldnt of had to go thru all of this pain. He is the sweetest doctor have ever had the chance of meeting. He took the best care of me, and made me and my family feel very comfortable! I would highly recommend Dr Golden to anyone who has kidney problems. He has the best bedside manner! \r
