Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

No bedside is a huge ego.
No bedside Manor, huge ego and gets very frustrated with too many questions. Quick temper. We will be looking elsewhere

Awful!
He is so arrogant and very disinterested in you and getting to the root of the problem. He actually looked bored during my visit! He has absolutely no bed side manner and makes you feel like you are wasting his time! I left there feeling worse than before I even met with him!

Jan 2021: Dr. Sumey was so kind and thorough. He made me feel cared for and explained the procedure/outcome in terms I could understand. When he did my bone marrow biopsy, most people said it would be quite painful, but it was not (I do have a high pain threshold, tho.) His staff and the nurse in the room were all so very personable and helpful and comforting. Dr. Sumey was so efficient, swift and done in a flash -- only a few moments of lots of pressure he had to apply, and then a minor burning sensation for a couple seconds, then some required pressure after on the wound. I told him he was awesome, and he said I was a very good patient (probably tells everyone that?!). He said I won't need to see him for a year unless a concern arises, & to call or message him with ANY questions, yippee! So for now with a diagnosis of CLL, I am one of those W&W patients (wait & watch). Praise God. Thank you, Dr. Sumey and staff for your wonderful patient rapport and excellent expertise!
