Physicians Who Treat Hepatitis

Lumberton, N.J.


Physician: Jeffrey J. Kutscher, MD
Type of physician: Gastroenterologist
Address: 693 Main Street
Lumberton, NJ 08048
Patient Comment: While I have not been treated by Dr. Kutscher,
I have been treating with his partner
Dr. William Taub since
being diagnosed with HCV in 1992.
There is also another partner, Dr. Maurice Leonard,
and their practice is Gastroenterology Consultants
of South Jersey. I can tell you that the atmosphere
at their office is one of caring, concern
and compassion, not just by the doctors,
but by everyone on their staff.
While I have consulted with 2 "HCV Specialists"
in Philadelphia, I would never consider treating
anywhere else, especially after my experience
with going to the specialists.
I only wish that everyone that has HCV
is treating with a doctor who is,
at the least, half as wonderful as mine is.
