Dr. Stifelman exhibits an extremely professional demeanor in explaining in detail his accurate assessment of my health issue. He took the time to support his assessment by showing me the precise location of my kidney tumor on my image scan and further explained the surgical approach he would employ using robotic surgery techniques. He further established what my expectations would be post surgery. I am extremely grateful for having him as my doctor.
