Dr. Trandafirescu was very friendly, knowledgable and professional. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an internist or pulmonologist. I will definitely be coming back and I have told all my family and friends to switch their doctors and come here!

Very caring doctor, actually sat down and got my whole life story. Really got to know me as a person, which I think can do wonders when playing in to a doctors analysis of a patient's diagnosis. He was also very in tune to the latest research in his field and outside of pulmonary topics, this is often hard to find, as many doctors were educated years ago and get lost in the continual advancement of their respective fields.
