After an exam by Dr. Hoffman, my attempts to schedule a necessary and urgent surgery were thwarted repeatedly by his venomous and combative staff. Not only was I not cared for by Dr. hoffman I was treated aggressively by his staff, who were more like prison guards then healthcare professionals. All the while, my urgent need for surgery was completely ignored, so I had to go to the ER for proper care. If you value your health, my advice would be to avoid Dr. Hoffman altogether. I was referred by my other doctor to Dr. hoffman for surgery as my condition required the expertise of a general surgeon. I was sobbing as my condition worsened and My pain and suffering became unbearable. Dr. Hoffman received all 4 of my messages and still disregarded my please for help. The office staff hung up on me because they said he has my messages and I deserved to be hung up on because I called 4 times. Mind you Dr. Hoffman was not in surgery which which would be the only sane reason he would ignore my repeated phone calls.

I only received a phone call back from Dr. Hoffman, who refused me treatment after I told his office staff that I will file a complaint with the medical board.

Not only did I get abhorrent care by doctor Hoffman and his staff, he was inappropriate in the examination room during my consultation.

Highlighting the trauma of the experience, was the shoddy office "decor," which included a dirty floors, dingy furniture, and documents taped to the wall, rather then framed.

Made an appointment and showed up on time, only to have the very rude office staff inform me that the doctor was not in and all were unaware of my scheduled appointment. totally unprofessional. in a surgeons office, where all the patients are understandably nervous and needing care, to blow someone off so completely, and send them on their way was utterly classless. i have a new surgeon now.
