Dec 12, 2023
Dr. Schaeffer is an amazing physician and person. He explained things to me in a very direct and forthright manner and I felt very comfortable with him. I was very fortunate to have had him as my surgeon and thanks to him I am now cancer-free. I would very highly recommend him without hesitation.......he saved my life.
