I’ve had a lot of surgeries and Dr Kauffman has got to be one of the best surgeons I know. He has saved my cervical fusion twice now. He is kind but extremely knowledgeable and a great surgeon.!!😝
Dr Kauffmann was very helpful in understanding my surgery and what to expect for my recovery.
Takes his time. Simplifies the terminology and makes sure that the patient understands.
Awesome customer service. Dr. Kauffman was very professional, patient and understanding.
