All I can say is to stay away from this “doctor” if you don’t want to die.

Wow, now he is in TN. Why did he left Michigan?? of course after all the mistakes and health problems that he caused to his patients. Why don't you retire or go work as a carpenter like your dad so you can leave peoples life to be longer.

the liver nurse found us a way to see him on a day the specialty clinic was closed, we left understanding the problem and treatment, and she helped us get me to surgery, and it went great and my cat scan shows my liver has already grown back to normal

Dr. Koffron is kind, optimistic, and caring. I felt very at ease with him and confident that he’s the best doctor to treat my condition.
