Dr Gofnung always communicates compassionately about my options for healthier lifestyle. Impressively, he refers back to conversations from prior visits to touch base with how my day to day challenges are going. I greatly appreciate him.

Dr. Gufnung is a caring doctor. He listens to you. I would say a by the way statement thinking it is nothing. Like oh I sometimes catch my breath walking from the parking lot to my office. I thought it was nothing . He right away asked more questions and end up referring me to a cardiologist. I’m glad he is my doctor.

I sent a message to the doctor last night (on Sunday) and he contacted me by video chat first thing this morning. I’m very impressed with that kind of immediate response.
