I feel so incredibly lucky to have Dr Kaufman as my doctor. He is better than any concierge doctor that I've heard of. I've never messaged him and not received an answer very quickly. He listens to me and has helped me various times with different problems. I hold his advice in high regards. I would say that the younger doctors just starting their careers could learn so much from Dr Kaufman.

Dr. Kaufman is very knowledgeable and I am very happy to know him. However, the system seems to have limited access to him. He is overbooked, obviously, and it's not his fault. I'm sure it's the same with other physicians in the system.

Dr Kaufman's team reached out to me to schedule an appointment after a hospital discharge. They gave me several options for dates/times the same and next day.

Dr. Kaufman is an exceptional doctor He patiently listens to everything you need to tell him. When finished with the narrative, Dr Kaufman asks relevant questions and then proceeds to discuss a test that is appropriate to explain/confirm his diagnosis. He takes the time to listen and then to explain- he never rushes through the steps necessary to diagnose the problem. I have every confidence in his medical knowledge and trust his judgment. He has an easy going style which Is calming and a very pleasant demeanor.
