Doctor Jedediah Kaufman performed a Whipple on me in 2009 at Swedish Hospital. He was very caring and willing to explain the difficult procedure in terms that I could understand. He sat by my bedside as if he had all the time in the world. I highly recommend him. After all, I am still here!

Dr. Kaufman is very professional yet personable. He was attentive to concerns and really thorough about the procedure he would be doing and on follow up after the surgery. Excellent bedside manner and he makes sure everyone else involved is providing excellent care. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you Dr. Kaufman.

Dr. Kaufman was incredibly informative in diagnosis and treatment. He treats patients on a personal level and makes you feel confident in everything from diagnosis through surgery. The surgery went very smoothly and I am beyond pleased with the results. Followup was timely and helpful as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Kaufman.

Dr. Kaufman is an excellent surgeon. He took plenty of time with my husband and I explaining what he was going to do and how he would do my surgery. He is bright, caring and has a great sense of humor.
