Review for Dr. Kauffman
Dr. Khurram is kind and caring. She explained my husband’s condition very clearly. She took time and never seemed rushed. Her staff were welcoming, polite and professional.

I have utmost trust and confidence in Dr Ponnusamy’s diagnostics and skills as a surgeon. He’s the best.

I have been seeing Dr. Eilen for several years now. He is punctual and does not waste your time. He is able to answer any questions and provides good sound guidance!

Review for Dr. Eilen
From the initial visit to the pre-op to the surgery and aftercare - I felt confident that I was getting the best care possible. Everyone was so caring and professional - I can’t recommend Dr. Seng and his practice any more highly.
