In patients' words
"There was no wait time, everybody was friendly, and Dr. Kaufman was all business in the room but yet made it comfortable for all of us. You don't find this combination often in today's world."
— Healthgrades (Dr. Kristie Kaufman) patient review"She started off very hands on, caring and thorough... BUT She then opened her own practice and things went downhill... I didn’t expect her to memorize my child’s history but I did expect her to read his file before our appointment."
