In Nov., 2016, I suffered from severe Dysphagia following a choking incident. After hospitalization, consultation/treatment by 6 different specialists (gastro, ENT, Neurology, etc.) and my former PCP, I received little to no relief, helpful diagnoses or progress.

I have been going to Dr Cummings for around 20 years. Would not go to anyone else!
Dr Cummings is always willing to take his time with you to help you understand how he will provide the best care for you.
Dr. Cummings and staff are exceptional. The personal service and attention are unique. Never to be found in other family physicians offices.
Dr. Cummings is great. Im a new patient and have had a great experience so far.
dr. cummings has helped with a couple of trips out of the country. my husband and son have asthma and we went to high altitudes and then of course we ate at out of the way places so he helped with all the meds we needed...inhalers, stomach irritation that could happen etc. We felt very fortunate to be able to contact a doctor and get a quick response and all the help he provided with out the… See more
If he suspects a problem he gets to the bottom of it as fast as possible--whether its sending you to a specialist or x-ray. This is the first time for me that a doctor ever called me with the results. Wonderful experience that's all I can say.
Dr. Tim Cummings has been MyDoctor for about 14 years and there's a good reason for that: he is simply the best. He takes the time to understand all my concerns, even the silly ones, and his patience with his patients is commendable to say the least. He always goes the extra mile to take care of all my health concerns and does so with such caring professionalism that I am always… See more
Dr. Tim Cummings is not only my doctor, but my husband's, my mother's, and my mother-in-law's. He has taken great care of all of us over the past several years. My husband has even been able to walk into his office without an appointment and been able to have a conversation with him. Unheard of with other doctors! Dr. Cummings truly cares about his patients health and well-… See more

The longer I live, the more I value having a doctor who listens and understands exactly what I need when I need it. I was particularly impressed that he gave me his cell phone number and encouraged me to call any time day or night if I needed him. Just knowing he's there and always ready to help gives me a level of confidence and comfort that is priceless.
