Comments
"Dr. Sumner immediately put me at ease. My previous experience with a cardiologist was not a good one. Dr. Sumner was personable as all as professional. He was attentive, asked pertinent questions and made suggestions. He also changed a medication which he thought I would be able to better tolerate. A friend suggested him and I'm glad I made the connection."
"Dr Sumner took a comprehensive approach to evaluating my health and offered thoughtful, appropriate advice. He listened carefully to my concerns and addressed each one. His knowledge, experience, and empathy were evident throughout our interaction."
"I really appreciate the professionalism of all, Dr. Sumner. Dr. Sumner did a great job of explaining 'exactly' what my condition is and the next steps to take with my health care. I'm thankful that he took the time to listen to my concerns, I didn't feel rushed or just another patient. On the way out, [redacted] gave me everything I needed to know for next appointment(s) and was very efficient with my paperwork. Also, very nice...I didn't feel like a number. Overall, I had a great experience!"
