Excellent care from Doctor Cummings. I was in awful pain and he took me in quickly and my surgery was the best possible. I feel the doctor was so thorough in explaining everything, never in a rush, and answered all my questions. I’d give him a 10 for sure!!!

I fractured my thighbone in a motorcycle accident in Cascade in 2008 September and underwent surgery by Dr. Jeol. Thank you so much!

At 70 years old my husband is 10 weeks out from a total hip replacement. Dr. Cummings did a great job. All has gone very well and he is very happy to be leaving off his cane at this point. Appreciate the great care we got.

Two complaints. This was a "Torn meniscus" surgery. #1 Pre-op he told me he would repair only the tear. Instead, while I was under anesthesia, he "shaved" my meniscus surface causing massive internal bleeding and months of rehab. #2 After all that, a post-op MRI showed "no change" to the tear (or as the other doctors I have seen since state he "missed the tear"). Although I understand a tear can be "missed", Dr. Cummings did exactly what he said he would not do (shave all) and did not do what he said he would do (fix the tear). Rating on a scale of 1-10 would be a -1. I am worse off after the surgery (loose knee joint and tear still present)than I was before the surgery.
