Dr.Sumner answered my question about what options I had for my right hand finger, and she explained clearly what caused the issue with my left thumb and the treatment plan. She always takes time with me, so I try to reciprocate by taking time to fill out this survey.

Listens AND hears, explains things well - including treatment options, is very thorough and compassionate, too. I have no trouble putting the health of my hands in Dr.Sumner’s hands!

Listened and examined my injury before she viewed the new X-rays. I liked that as it made me feel she wanted my information before seeing the films. Did a wonderful job with the steroid injection on my hand.
