Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

mohs procedure
Dr Cummings along with all of her staff were caring in explaining all that would be taking place. This was my second mohs procedure with Dr. Cummins. I am very satisfied with all the results from the procedure to the outcome. My scarring from my first procedure is unrecognizable and it looks as though it'll be the same for the second.

Maybe a great Surgeon- very arrogant
Would not answer general dermatology questions like I was wasting her time. Had MOHS surgery multiple complications and scarring after almost 10 months in acted like I was the problem still had scar. Informed would do no more procedures at the office. Very unprofessional

I have been a patient of Dr. Cummings for almost 15 years. She has performed MOHS surgery on my face multiple times. I heal very quickly each time, and people are amazed that there are no visible scars. She Is SO GOOD at her profession. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Cummins took time with me, checked the area involved, told me both pros. And cons. Did the in office removal, she asked what questions I had, she answered all of them. Did the procedure and was happy several days later no cancer!

Nothing but positive for Dr. Cummins and her staff. They went above and beyond to accommodate my own scheduling issue. I actually didn't have any questions for them to answer because they gave me all of the information up front. From my Mohs surgery experience, this is a top shelf operation.

Dr Deborah Cummins really has no time to answer your questions or even let you finish your sentence. She is more interested in telling you about how she has certain credentials in MOHs than explains what your cancer is. She was very dismissive and acted like she was too busy to deal with me or my questions about my newly diagnosed CANCER. I figured this was normal practice until I finally just left a great doctor who did make time to answer my questions and understood how scary this was for me.
