I have been a patient of Dr. Kaufman for several years. I like Dr. Kaufman because he thinks outside the box. I have a chronic condition that has really caused me difficulties in the past. Dr. Kaufman does take the time to listen to you and he will ask a lot of questions. I like that he is willing to try natural remedies rather than automatically write out a prescription first thing. He is, of course, knowledgeable about pharmaceuticals if they are necessary. Yes, the office wait is often long, but you can take that into consideration when booking your appointment. His office staff has always been nice & friendly to me.
My mom was having pain for almost a year, Dr Kaufman took the time to understand exactly what was going on & made a diagnosis with a plan. He will also do a nerve test in his office. He is a rare doc to find & really cares to get to the bottom of the issue. I would give him more stars if I could - amazing doctor!
Dr. Kaufman is a dedicated, intelligent, diligent individual. He is able to quickly identify trends and pick up on small clues in your medical history that are otherwise overlooked by other DRs/specialists. For once in my life, I feel optimistic and have a plan to manage my chronic and rare health condition. His office will work with you to prepare for any delays and is always professional. I would rather have a Dr. who takes their time with me, and other patients, but runs late than one who only spends ~10 mins with me to check the box. I live out of state and will always travel to continue my care here. THANK YOU Dr. Kaufman and team!
Dr. Kaufman thinks out of the box and genuinely wants to help you. If you have a rare disease or are confused about your diagnosis, he will try his best to look at every possible aspect and approach to help. I am thankful to my friend, Deirdre who introduced me to him.

Dr. Seth Kaufman is not just an extraordinary neurologist who is brilliant, passionate, and deeply human. He brings a higher level of perception to his work that ultimately provides patients with not only targeted health solutions but a way to recompose their lives back to greater potential and well-being.
There are many neurologists out there who bring good technical skills and experience to the table. But in my experience during my 90-year-old father’s health journey, very few can combine their scientific rigor with the ability to see the broader, integrated landscape of a patient’s life, at the physical, cognitive-emotional, social level and connect disparate dots in a way that reveal a picture that is simultaneously scientifically accurate and profoundly empowering. Dr Kaufman does just that.
If you’ve been to so many specialists that you’ve lost count, but still don’t have the integrated picture or improvement, look no further.
