Scott Saffold, MD

Scott Saffold, MD - Scott believes that one of his primary roles is to help patients make intelligent decisions about their health care. Says Dr. Saffold, “Very often the difference between adequate healthcare and excellent healthcare depends upon whether the provider actually cares about their patient’s well-being.”

It is his philosophy that patient/customer service will ultimately improve health care delivery. At Chesapeake Bay ENT, Dr. Saffold lives his belief that people in all communities have the right to expect technologically advanced, state-of-the-art healthcare.

Dr. Saffold attended the University of California at Berkley as an undergraduate. He attended medical school at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, TN. His general surgery internship was completed at the State University of New York at Buffalo.
