Donald Goldstein
DMD

Dr. Donald Goldstein attended the University of Louisville where he received both his Bachelor’s degree and his Doctorate of Dental Medicine. He was well known throughout the country for being a member of the 1959 All-American Basketball Team and going to the Final Four of the NCAA Tournament where he averaged 21.4 points and ten rebounds. That same year, Dr. Goldstein played in the Pan-American games and as a result was the 1st Round NBA draft pick for the Detroit Pistons. Though we are all grateful he decided to attend dental school in lieu of becoming a basketball star, he has achieved greatness on the court and was inducted into the Louisville Hall of Fame in 1980. In 2011, he was inducted in to the Brooklyn Old-Timers Hall of Fame just a few short years after retiring his Jersey #24. We are proud to announce in September of 2012, Dr. Goldstein was inducted into the New York Hall of Fame.

Dr. Goldstein has focused his dental career on oral reconstruction and anterior aesthetics.  He held a position as Clinical Professor  at Nassau Community Medical Center for 23 years, where he taught Prosthetics. Today he continues to create new fans off the court by performing community service at a Catholic mission in Florida where he performs dentistry to the underserved migrant community. In his spare time, Dr. Goldstein can often be seen on the golf course or reading a great book.
