I have recommended Dr Schaffner to friends...but it's very difficult to establish patient Dr relationship as he's so busy!!! Dr Schaffner is about the only Dr that has remained in Oakhurst for many years and is well respected!

I have been a patient of Dr. Schaffner for many years and he is always thorough and keeps a close eye on my health. I had colon cancer 7 years ago and he always checks on my care.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/1/2025
After having women doctors for 33+ years I was apprehensive but he was the onlydoctor who was in my area. The prior doctor in this practice had ordered a bunch of tests and quit before I got any results!! My husband was suffering from cancer and kidney disease and had the same issue with that Dr. I never want to change from Dr. Dan Schaffner
