I’m tremendously sad to hear that Dr. Jay Goldberg has passed suddenly. He was a great colleague at CS, and an even better OB GYN for my 1st. He took great care of us, with humor and compassion. May his memory be a blessing. He hung even hung my art in an exam room. Thanks Jay 💔 https://t.co/G4ihZW4JPq
