About Dr. Stuart Saftchick
As a general internist and Primary Care Physician (PCP), I emphasize a comprehensive approach to each patient as an individual, viewing illness in relation to the entire body. I provide care that includes physical exams, management of diabetes and hypertension (high blood pressure), sick visits, check-ups, referrals, and more. I earned my Doctor of Medicine degree from Universidad Aut?noma de Guadalajara, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to deliver thorough, patient-centered care.

He does not take you seriously...or atleast me anyway..I mean he maybe good, he has great manners but I felt that he wasnt truly listening to me and my needs. I changed PCPs and could not be happier that I found some one else to be my physician. Thank you zocdoc!
