Patient Reviews
Aug 10, 2022
I saw Dr.Pfiffner in May of 2022, basically as a last resort. I am very happy that I went to him. I had complete medical records and Dent was aware of everything that had been done before I went there. I think that may have been helpful to both him and myself. I found him to be a "normal"<---whatever that means<<< kind of person who heard what I was saying and was happy to help me. I felt he was very professional in his demeanor/actions and I didn't feel at all uncomfortable in asking questions or saying what I needed to say. I didn't find him warm and fuzzy, he was courteous and polite, and I was comfortable in his presence, he is a professional we are not trying to be best friends however he was NOT in any way arrogant, cold or condescending with me as some reviews have suggested him to be. I have another appointment scheduled, and will go without hesitation because he has definitely helped me and for that I will always be grateful.
