I typically hate going to a Dr's office, but Dr. Scharff has been the exception. As an academic that follows research papers, I was thrilled to find out he stays on top of his industry's research too and was eager to discuss. When I had an unexpected severe reaction, he made room in his schedule and saw me right away. He knows his stuff, but he also doesn't hesitate to refer me to specialists. All around pleasant.

My husband and I have been seeing him for about 14 yrs and I got most of my family to go to him also. He is a wonderful doctor, he takes great care of my entire family and I trust everything he tells me and my husband. He cares very much for his patients and he actually will talk to u on the phone. Now thats what I call a caring doctor.

Dr. Scharff has been my GP for 10+ years.He has been very conscientious and very thorough through out the years I have been going to him. He does not jump the gun to give in prescribing medications or a diagnose but he is very good at giving referrals when needed. I never doubt his judgment.I can't imagine having any other GP than Dr. Scharff.

Once an established patient, it is very easy to get an appt. for any type of emergency the same day. I feel he is an excellent, caring doctor. Gives good referrals. No need to even carry a prescription; he justs calls it in for you. I would definitely recommend.
