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.

Professional & knowledgeable
Saw Dr. Sumner for neck pain, he was kind and knowledgeable. He immediately came up with a treatment plan and seemed to genuinely care about my issues. I felt listened to and validated!

Dr. Jeffrey Sumner is undoubtedly the best in his field. He has performed five surgical spine interventions on me and every single one of them has been successful, short and long term. Not only that, but my recovery time has been minimal each time. I attribute his success due to his knowledge, expertise and precise surgical procedures. He may not say much, but his ‘hands do all the talking’. I attest that my physical ortho well being and spinal health is attributed to Dr. Jeffrey Sumner and all who assist him in his practice.
