Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2024
As a young woman, I was scared not knowing exactly what to expect after a referral by my gynecologist to Dr. Sommers. I found a very easy woman doctor; she took her time to explain my procedure and made me feel hopeful. After the surgery, she was a great help with my recovery and after care. I am forever grateful to her and her staff, and YES, I would recommend her to any woman suffering from reproductive system issues. Rezer July 2023
