Dr. Kummer was most honest and professional during the office visit. Refreshing to have a doctor on time and genuinely concerned and open with the state of my finger health.
Great experience all around!
The whole experience was excellent from calling in to make an appointment, checking in process and meeting with the team. I would highly recommend Jennifer Kummer and her team. I have only had positive experiences at Steadman Hawkins.
I was very impressed with her. She explained that I had a couple of small fractures and pointed them out on the xray. She further explained that she expected that they would heal on their own and it would take 6 to 8 weeks in a splint. Her assistant provided the splint and scheduled a follow up appointment in a couple of weeks.
every-thing was with care. Outstanding.
