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.

Dr. Summer is a caring doctor.

Dr. Summer is a rare gem to find in the health care industry these days. I feel fortunate to have found him . He has been my doctor for years. I’ve been a nurse for 30 years and often recommend him and the entire staff at Summer Family Care to new people in the area as well as family and friends! He is professional, has impeccable skills and so compassionate and caring. He truly makes you feel like you are his top priority. I’ve never been disappointed with my care!

Dr Summer is an outstanding physician who takes his patients' care very seriously. Just before Thanksgiving I had a medical need come up quite suddenly. It was NOT an emergency but I was uncomfortable and when I called I was told to be there in an hour - can't get that at other offices. I was seen on time and got compassionate care. If you need a family care physician you cannot do better than Summer Family Care.

Dr. Summer spends more time with you than ANY other doctor that I have ever seen. He actually listens to your problem and tries to solve the issue instead of just masking the symptoms.
