Dr. Richard Kaufman, MD

Dr Kaufman is the most brilliant, caring, and greatest doctor I’ve ever known. He’s now retired and 84 years old. He got me through highscool and helped me finish with honors from a prestigious university. I can’t praise him enough. I miss him so much. Every doctor should strive to be half as good as Kaufman.

II had been diagnosed and treated by Dr Richard Kaufman of Highland Park for over 25 years, covering his diagnosis of Asburger’s syndrome, ADHD and the treatment of anxiety by recognizing the molecular similarity between oxytocin and OxyContin . I had lost track of him from the time he left his practice to teach in Africa. I regret not accepting his invitation to accompany him. I regrettably now remain without a doctor or psychiatrist. Dr Kaufman’s interest in teaching extended to neurology (on a metaphoric) evel and a doctorate level knowledge of evolution. He provided referrals to one son thru David Levin and another who since moved to NYC. I understood his position to be a”doctor for life” in emergency situations , and now view myself as desperately seeking his advice.
