Patient Reviews
Oct 05, 2022
Dr. Sommer is absolutely amazing. His education and experience is second to none but it does not stop there. Dr. Sommer is a gentleman and has an incredible bedside manner. I am always quite hesitant to trust others. However, I had no problem trusting Dr. Sommer. He saved my life and was so caring and patient with me. Barbara his nurse practitioner is also brilliant. I was blown away with her in depth knowledge and experience. She helped me every step of the way and was so responsive. I could not have asked for a better team to take care of me. I feel so lucky to be a patient of Dr. Sommer.
