Patient Reviews
Dec 28, 2021
Dr. Schaffer and his staff are amazing! Everyone made me feel so comfortable and at ease. From the initial phone call, setting the consultation appointment to each time I check and out, the scheduling & payment department, the nurses and (of course) Dr. Schaffer, every single person greeted me with a friendly and caring smile. Dr. Schaffer and his staff listened to my wants and needs and delivered! I saw Dr. Schaffer after I had a procedure done by another surgeon that gave me a less than desirable result. My breast implant revision (replaced 15 year old saline implants with silicone implants) left me with my left breast much lower than my right and that surgeon tried to convince me that there was nothing wrong. Dr. Schaffer examined me and very patiently answered all of my questions and concerns. He told explained how he could fix the problem and executed the procedure perfectly! My only regret is not finding him sooner so he could have done the revision the 1st time.
