Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2021
Doctor Tuerff literally saved my life. I was not aware but I had TOS and I had an aneurysm from my aorta which caused all the clots in my left arm,which I was also not aware of,to burst in to thousands of tiny clots in my arm. I was rushed to my local hospital and then was transported to Christiana where Dr Tuerff took over my case. She is the only experienced TOS doctor around and she rushed me in to surgery to save my life. It was a very bumpy road after that first surgery,but she was amazing! I would not be alive if it wasn’t for her. Her after care was always up to par and she always went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend
