Patient Satisfaction

How likely are you to recommend Dr. Kaufman?
What really surprised me is how much time he was willing to be present with me and explain the procedure from start to finish. I share a similar passion for medical information which sometimes puts Docs at unease. He handled all my questions with patience and understanding. I learned everything I needed to know and he made sure all of his paperwork and staff was in order. His work has held up very well. I'm now 2 yrs post surgery and my Gibson incision is almost unnoticeable. Most of all it was just refreshing to see a Doctor that was happy to be there and engaged in their work and patient care. I've had some bad ones.
