We have been going to Dr. Kaufman since my daughter was 3 days old and couldn't imagine seeing anyone else. She is calm and reassuring and has a great disposition with kids. We feel like we are always in great hands - one less thing to worry about with a 4 1/2 year old is a good thing!…

“Great thorough doctor- so good with kids”
This doctor is so good with children. She spends so much time asking about them about their health. My kids love coming here. My daughter is 5 and I have an 11 year old boy and they both feel so comfortable there. She knows all the right questions to ask and when needed gives top notch referrals to specialists.
A true gem!

“Excellent doctor”
Dr. Kaufman is a an amazing doctor. She is an excellent diagnostician with a wonderful bedside manner. My daughter, now 17, has been seeing her since she was an infant and has always found her to be knowledgeable, kind and approachable. She always gets back to you in a timely manner and is very reassuring. We have had a great experience with Dr. Kaufman and her office and highly recommend her.

“Easy, Fantastic, Knowledgable”
Dr Kaufman is calm and understanding. Her staff is friendly and will accommodate busy schedules for appointments. She also has a great referral base. I have enjoyed our relationship over the years; she has been very good with my girls as they have matured into young ladies.

“We never feel like a "number" with Dr. Kaufman.”
The health of my children is one of the most important things to me and nothing makes me feel more secure than having a doctor that really knows my children. Dr. Kaufman is great at diagnostics - she doesn't miss a beat. My children never complain about coming to the doctor. She is gentle and friendly, putting everyone at ease. The office is run efficiently. I have never had a problem with billing or getting forms. My children have grown up in this office.
I highly recommend Dr. Kaufman and her staff.

“Amazing and caring doctor - very thorough”
We have been with Dr Kaufman for years and she is wonderful. She takes her time and really listens to what the children say to her. She was even able to spot silent strep in my daughter which I had missed.
I highly recommend her.
