Dr. Kaufman may be a good doctor, but if you don't get to see him after waiting two hours and being treated flippantly by techs and office people, then he is worthless. Many good doctors have respectful staff and efficient office management. I will go to one of them and I hope you will consider doing the same.

Dr. Kaufman is thorough , professional and has nice bedside manner. Yes you will be in his office for a while but he is worth the wait. Had done cataract surgery on my eyes and taken care of scar tissue that formed after the surgery. He is my doctor of choice.

I recommend Dr. Kaufman. He is well trained and is a gifted surgeon. He is thorough in his examinations and clear in his instructions. His staff is cordial and helpful. Yes, you often have to wait, but that is a small price to pay for excellent care.

Started with DR Kaufman several years ago, treated me for a condition that my local DR said "I would just have to live with." Just had both cataracts removed with laser surgery in Gainesville Hospital. Awesome care and attention, always answers my questions. Highly recommended!

Dr. Kaufman performed two Cataract surgeries on me. His surgery center is fantastic and friendly! While his office staff aren't quite as efficient....the wait time is too long. But I see him annually and he is very thorough.

Don't go to this doctor, you will wait for 2+ hours. The office staff is rude and all they and Dr. Kaufman care about is the almighty dollar. They will tell you one price and it will end up being more. Don't believe a word they say!

I was legally blind from cataracts. Dr. Kaufman restored my vision. He has a fantastic surgery center with a wonderful staff. The procedure was quick and painless. Highly recommended.

He has been very helpful and caring in an eye emergency that I have had. I found him to be professional and caring. I would recommend him highly.
