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.

All good!

Dr. Cummings spent time getting to know me which is rare in my experience. He cared about me as an individual and asked thoughtful questions to get at the root of my issue. He was an exceptional doctor and I would highly recommend him. He loves what he does and it shows in the care he provides.

Dr. Cummings is an excellent Doctor who listens to my concerns and truly cares about helping me to get better. I appreciate so much the help he has given me during the last 3 health problems I have had. My knee accident, broken fingers and hip problems. He goes above and beyond, and I could not be more grateful!!!

Dr cummings was amazing he put me at such ease and I felt he really had what was best for me at the forefront .The only person will I wasn't overly impressed with was the emergency admitting lady she was brisk with us and a bit unkind to be and my sister-in-law . But hood river hospital is always my first choice so I try to give accepting tgat it was a very busy day lots of accidents and they were stressed but it is the first person you have contact with and compassion should be at the firfeint in that area .
