Dr. Tuffaha is a wonderful doctor. He showed great empathy towards me. I was given ample time to describe my health issues. He answered a question for me related to my medical problem that no other doctor had answered. He also provided me with a clear plan for my medical issue. I felt very encouraged when leaving the office. I plan to continue my care with Dr. Tuffaha as long as he is able to care for me.

Dr Tuffaha took me as a patient when others thought there was no point. He was able to fix my quad muscle beyond his and my expectations

I don't feel like he listened to me. He didn't even look at the two MRI's I brought with me concerning my arm.

I appreciated his honesty and that he took time to talk to my wife and I about options. We drove from NC for this appointment and felt like it was worth it just to hear another opinion.
