Dr Karpoff is an excellent doctor. He is extremely thorough and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain what options were available for me moving forward and sensitive to my fears and tears.
April 17, 2019Thasha S.Verified patient
He is very engaging and skilled at putting you at ease while simultaneously taking the time to educate you about your body in a way you can understand. He is a very skilled diagnostician, more so than any I have encountered where it comes to women's breast health. Until I came to be under his care, I don't believe I was ever thoroughly, properly examined. I am very confident in his opinion, and I would go as far as saying that this physician is not only hard-working, but gifted and talented, as well.
