Patient Reviews
Jun 10, 2023
As my only pulmonologist in 20 years I have never had a bad experience with Dr Schaefer Jr. I have been classified COPD for the majority of the time I have been a patient. It never got bad enough to look elsewhere. My COPD has become serious and I have contacted the doctor to get access to something which will reduce the stress. I will see him Monday.
