Patient Reviews
Oct 27, 2017
Dr. Tuffaha was very professional, knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, and patient in his care of me. When I had an acute kidney issue arise suddenly, with no prior history, he made room for me to be seen within a few days, even though I was a new patient for him. It would be a great pleasure to recommend him to family and friends.
