I researched surgeons for HOURS and DAYS. Anywhere from the Sacramento area, to San Francisco, all the way to Salt Lake City. I interviewed and met with several of them in fact. I landed on Dr. Kauffman in Folsom CA because he was so humble (well, as humble as any plastic surgeon can be haha).....and I LOVED the way his belly buttons turned out. I also loved that his used LMA anesthesia (on my review for more info on that). I woke up with no nausea whatsoever. Another thing that I ABSOLUTELY loved, Loved loved loved is that I was never alone with him. Not in one meeting, initial consultation, follow up, etc....I was never alone in a room with him. He always had a female staff present. Probably for his sake and liability more than mine, but I so appreciated that extra step and caution. And it was probably prompted because his wife works there with him too and I'm sure she doesn't want anything going on privately lol. I mean, you've got a man seeing you naked and touching you....it's just a wise to have another person present. In my other consultations with other surgeons, that was not the case. So final outcome/work aside.....he has my respect for that alone. I really would recommend my surgeon, and if fact already have to others who have already booked surgeries with him. The only thing that I think he could improve on is remembering his patients. He never addressed me by my name. I handed over thousands of dollars to him and never once called me by my name. And call me old fashioned or too into customer service, but all it takes is a quick look at my chart before you enter the room to greet the patient by their name. But then again he has hundreds of patients and honestly probably didn't even remember who I was in some of my post op visits. I could tell he was trying to remember who I was and what my "story" was, etc. I reminded him I was the gal that lost 100 pounds, music teacher, etc, and then he remembered. But I guess I can't really fault him for that. At the end of the day, you're paying for your best body....and not a new friend haha. But just something perhaps he could improve on. But other than that...it all went really great, and he has my respect, which I don't give out freely. I think he does fantastic work and I think he did fantastic work on me.

I met with Dr. Kaufman and his staff after seeing his results on another patient. I was impressed with the quality of his work. They were very good about answering all of my questions and were accomodating to my needs as I was traveling from 2 hours away for visits. I am so grateful to Dr. Kaufman and his staff, it truly was a positive, life changing experience for me.
