Patient Reviews
Feb 21, 2023
I feel very fortunate that I was referred to Dr. Jefson for a needed surgery. He took the time to fully explain my health issue and explain in detail the specifics of my planned surgery. The day of the surgery he again took the time to explain what he was going to do in surgery and make sure I know what to expect. At my follow up appointment after surgery, he continued to take the time to explain the findings in terms easily understood. He is a kind man with a great bedside manner. I would recommend him to anyone needing a surgeon.
