Patient Reviews
Oct 07, 2022
I was diagnosed with DVT by Dr. Tafur in ER, only after being given an assortment of tests in ER. He was the first, after more than on visit to ER, to determine the problem. He determined that, in my case, it is genetic. I highly recommend Dr. Tafur. I am very fortunate and very grateful to be in his care while being closely monitored for any future clotting issues. He gives his attention to any questions I have during the visit. At age 83, I feel safe knowing I am in Dr. Tafur's care.
