Dr Jennifer Kaufman is the best!! And definitely wouldn't think of getting another primary care provider!
Dr. Kaufman always is attentive and listens. She never talks over me, and considers what I have raised with her and gives insightful recommendations
Provider is attentive and responsive, but no solution was identified due to borderline normal lab results which is frustrating but not necessarily solvable. Practitioner stood the whole time which made the appointment feel rushed and talking to a seated patient does not subliminally send a message promoting equality of conversation. The standing desk computer stand is part of this, but both providers and nurses stand to use it. Can't the height of these stands be adjusted to overcome this problem?
Dr. Kaufman always takes her time do not feel rushed and listens well.
I like Dr. Kaufman very much. She answered my questions and had useful suggestions for me.
Dr. Kaufman is a great doctor I am so lucky to have her for my doctor.

Fantastic communication as always. Dr. Kaufman is my PCP and we are lucky to have her.
Dr. Kaufman was absolutely awesome! She was so thorough, asking about my diet, lifestyle, living circumstances. She listened to my concerns and questions. She accommodated my request for blood tests and a pap. She is the first physician to ever ask about my dental health!!!
