Dr. Sonya Tuerff, MD

Doctor Tuerff literally saved my life. I was not aware but I had TOS and I had an aneurysm from my aorta which caused all the clots in my left arm,which I was also not aware of,to burst in to thousands of tiny clots in my arm. I was rushed to my local hospital and then was transported to Christiana where Dr Tuerff took over my case. She is the only experienced TOS doctor around and she rushed me in to surgery to save my life. It was a very bumpy road after that first surgery,but she was amazing! I would not be alive if it wasn’t for her. Her after care was always up to par and she always went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend

After 6 years of monitoring a tos related aneuysm which developed into a blood clot in my arm, Dr. Tuerff stated she did not feel comfortable with my care. After much pain and suffering I was referred to Penn Medicine. There the surgeon told me my condition should never had gotten that far.

Wonderful dr. Very smart.

Dr Tuerff is wonderful, caring and knowledgeable in her craft......a wonderful surgeon. My only criticism is that she tends to overschedule herself and has been late at every appointment and also on day of surgery. I know surgeons are busy people but maybe a phone call to the patients telling them of a delay might be considerate of the patient's time.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Tuerff for anyone needing vascular evaluations or surgery. After initial appointment and exam, I was confident I'd found the right surgeon, and I now know I was right. She spent time listening to my history and explained well what was found in the ultrasounds. Her staff was professional and great to work with. The radio ablation on both legs went well with minimal bruising, and now, a couple months later, my legs look and feel so much better.
