Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2024
I found that doctor Chaffin takes his time to listen, addresses every issue and concern. He is personable, relatable and most importantly extremely knowledgeable in his field. I only wish he practiced internal medicine so he could be my first line of attack for everything. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled nephrologist.
