Dr. Jessica Taff is a heaven-sent advocate to patients whose knowledge, personality and empathy sets the bar so high that most doctors should emulate.

Looked far and wide for a Hematologist near me that would care about my issues and not just ignore me because I did not have a form of cancer. Dr. TAFF and her Amazing Nurses took me in and got me the treatments and information I Show moreneeded and when my Insurances tried to push back her staff pushed back harder and fought for what I needed to heal and push forward. I feel listened to and completely taken care of by Dr. TAFF and her staff and Amazing Nurses. Highly recommend if you need a Hematologist who knows her craft and has an Amazing bed side manner!!
