April 2026 | Verified CaroMont Patient
Dr. Caulfield is wonderful! He listened to my concerns, talked about the ins and outs of the procedure I was wanting. Was very honest with me. Instead of just telling me the procedure I was wanting wasn't what was needed and leaving it at that, he told me what would be more beneficial for me. I greatly appreciate Dr. Caulfield's bedside manner! You can truly tell he loves his career and his patients.
