I recently had to see a hand specialist, due to an ongoing painful issue. Upon arriving at the office, I was greeted by a very pleasant receptionist, designated to assist patients of Dr Bradley Schaffer. After only a few minutesShow more in the waiting room, Dr Schaffers medical assistant called me in for basic intake questions, almost immediately followed in by Dr Schaffer. Dr Schaffer reviewed my recent MRI, and provided a very in depth explanation of the source of my pain, as well as treatment options, of which I chose the route I preferred that time. Dr Schaffer was extremely professional, and knowledgeable about what may have caused my condition. He attentively listened to my concerns, offering his opinion when needed-I left the office feeling very satisfied with the treatment options discussed, and ultimately chosen, that Dr Schaffer had given for the best options to alleviate my pain. I highly recommend this provider to all who are looking for a provider that not only listen to, but provides the best treatment options available, for his patients.

They were all there for me when I was scared from getting my shot and appreciate all of them
Seems like a nice guy. He listens and explains what's wrong and tells you what should be done. I would recommend Dr. Shaffer if anyone needs a hand surgeon. He was recommended by my PCP and is highly recommend.
HE’S ON TIME!!! Spends the time necessary to tend to the patient but is on time. I hate waiting forever for a follow up appointment. He’s efficient and friendly but aware of time.
You're in great hands with Dr Schaffer and his staff.
On time, very pleasant office staff and excellent doctor.
Everyone their is great and they all do there job never have to wait. Dr. Shaffer is a very good surgeon
I believe Dr Schaffer is a good doctor but doesn’t talk much. Fount staff are the same at check in.
Dr Schaffer fixed my left wrist. I am still healing but can already tell the difference. He helped to ensure a better quality of ife for years to come.
I highly recommend this very professional Doctor
It was great appointment and got me pain medication feel so good Thank you Norm H
Great
Dr Schaffer spoke clearly and explained everything thoroughly. Used computer to show why I am having difficulties with hands and fingers in both hands.
Excellent
Great experience. Over 10 years of extreme hand pain at thumb joint and I now have either no pain or very manageable pain for months. It is life changing. The steroid injection was very painful but it stopped the pain cycle and chronic inflammation. With minimal PT and a hand brace I now know how to protect and strengthen my hand and stop the inflammation/pain cycle before or takes over. I appreciated that he took the time to explain everything I wanted to understand about my hands and thumb. I couldn't be happier asked more grateful. A+++
Best Hand surgeon around !!
Dr. Schaffer did a fantastic job helping me with my elbow pain. I wanted to try a conservative route after finding out that I had torn tendons and he was very willing to accommodate. In the end, I opted for surgery and I felt like I was in good hands through the entire process. 3 months later, I am virtually pain free and back to my daily activities... thank you Dr. Schaffer!
Good experience....exceptional teacher.........
Responsive to needs
I was seen right on time. The staff and Dr. Schaffer were friendly and addressed my problem efficiently. I would recommend Dr. Schaffer’s office.
Very happy with Dr Scaffer
Exceptional everyone from making the appointment, receptionists, x ray techs, to Dr Schaffer himself. Pleasant, kind, respectful, and they all go above and beyond which unfortunately seems less common these days. My only issue was the Cortisone injection into my thumb joint was a 9 out of 10 in pain. I had a few others in my life that hurt but now like that. It made me yell while he did it and cry afterwards. I could not help it and it was embarrassing. And I have a high pain threshold. I wished he had explained why that happened and how frequently that occurred because I hate being taken by surprise. I forgot to ask him. I like knowing ahead of time so I can brace myself. Other than that it went really well. He was professional, informative, and personable.
