Dr. Jennifer Kummer, MD

Dr. Kummer was amazing. She knew exactly what was wrong, did the surgery, and post-op always cared about how I was doing. This is about eight years later and now the other hand needs the same surgery. I am definitely going to see her. She is wonderful and skilled.

My daughter hurt her thumb/wrist. To be honest, I didn't think it was serious, but after a few days I decided to take her in. A friend recommended Dr. Kummer, who graciously scheduled an initial appointment the day after my phone call. The appointment went smoothly, with x-rays, evaluation, and splinting all taking place quickly, with a wonderful staff. Dr. Kummer was incredibly professional, while at the same time she was terrific with my daughter (age 10). Highly recommended.

My daughter hurt her arm on the playground and we were able to schedule an appointment with Dr. Kummer based on a referral. After checking her arm with a through exam and an x-ray, we discovered she has a significant stress fracture. Dr. Kummer took the time to talk to my little girl asking questions, explaining what happened, making her very comfortable. Dr. Kummer and her staff even offered her some crazy cast designs and colors making it seem not so bad. She was very thorough on the following exams and her arm healed perfectly. Dr. Kummer is very patient will children and parents.

I recently had an injury where I fell and immediately noticed pain in my ring finger and pinky. I went into my primary care where she ordered some x-rays that came back normal. She said to follow up in a week and recommended Dr. Kummer. This doctor appointment was one of the most frustrating I’ve had yet. She glossed over all the issues I mentioned and refused to give X-ray my fingers to rule out a fracture. She spent a total of maybe 5 minutes in the room and didn’t address any of my concerns.

Dr. Kummer and her staff, particularly Chris, set the standard all care-givers should seek for both the outcome and communication.

I received excellent care from Dr. Kummer. She did a trigger finger release on my index finger and I immediately felt relief after my surgery. I have recommended Dr. Kummer to my friends and family and they would all agree that she provides great care.

Dr. Kummer stepped up in a big way to help my husband. He had broken his wrist in a fall, had another surgeon put a plate in and was told the reason it hurt was that now he had arthritis. Dr. Kummer ordered several tests that confirmed that he was suffering from a bone infection. She performed surgery to remove the infection and damaged (deteriorated) bones. Then she contacted an infectious disease specialist who put my husband on a picc line for 6 weeks. He is doing great now!

Dr. Kummer did an amazing job removing a lipoma in my forearm. My scar is very small and healed nicely! I have recommended and will continue to recommend Dr. Kummer to my family and friends for their hand, wrist, and forearm issues.

I received excellent care from Dr. Kummer and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking excellent care and emphatic treatment. I was seen within 1 day of my injury and surgery within a matter of days. She even went out of her way to do my surgery at a location she usually does not use, because of my medical limitations. My recovery has been outstanding and she has shared my enthusiasm for my quick recovery.

Erroneous billing - Received an $8,000 bill from her surgical assistant (3X the surgeon bill) after previously being given a quote from her of zero dollars. This was for a small outpatient procedure. Called many times, left voice mails - no response at all.

I have been seeing Dr. Kummer for the last 4 years for hand injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis issues. She provides a comprehensive exam of the symptoms and explains options for treatment. I have had excellent results with treatments and surgery.

She spend 5 minutes with me and referred me to PT. She was not interested in listening my symptoms.

Dr. Kummer is my superhero! She gave me an opportunity to regain the use of a badly curved finger from a condition called Dupuytren's. My scarring was minimal and I can do things that I hadn't been able to for a long time. I recommend Dr.Kummer and her staff to anyone considering her for their concerns. I fully understood everything about my procedure from the surgery through the last physical therapy and my followup appointments. She gave me my fingers back... she's Awesome!

Dr. Kummer recommended and performed surgery on my wrist due to a ruptured scapho-lunate ligament and resulting arthritis. I did not get the outcome I expected. The wrist is now more painful than before surgery, and my range of motion is limited. Very disappointing; I would not recommend this surgery.

Competent, patient, caring doctor. She has treated me several times surgically and non-surgically, and I don't hesitate to return for treatment. She explains the details well so you understand the treatment and can make informed choices.
