Patient Reviews
Jan 24, 2017
I like Dr. Cushing very much. I saw him years ago for a particular issue and am seeing him again for another. He listens closely, explains things well and appears to be knowledgeable. His staff is nice. I'm sorry he's retiring (happy for him though). The only complaint is how very hard it is to get into him. I mean you have to wait for him to accept you, they have to get your records, etc before committing to seeing him.
