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.

Dr Sumet is the greatest surgeon. He operated on me, regarding a very serious operation, involving cancer tumors, and he was exceptionally skilled. He did a remarkable job. I only trust Dr. Sumet for all of my surgeries. He has expertise and he is very helpful and he explains everything. I trust him completely.

I have been blessed to work with Dr Sumet as a surgical nurse in Southfield for many years. This made my choice easy as I’ve witnessed his skill, expertise and bedside manner as well as respect he treats the surgical team with. He performed a thyroidextimy on me 22 years ago so was my first choice when I needed surgery earlier this month. I highly recommend him! He is respectful, gentle, and caring as well as skilled.

Dr. Sumet is an amazing doctor - he is thorough, knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He has been my advocate during an extremely upsetting diagnosis. He and his surgical team were great during my procedure, attentive and accessible. I cannot say enough about how impressed I am with Dr. Sumet - he is an angel walking this earth.

Dr. Sumet is an excellent surgeon. In 2016 he removed a large growth on my thyroid. He has a great bedside manor and truly cares about patients. He takes the time to speak to the family prior to procedure. In 2017 I was given the diagnosis of breast cancer. Dr Sumet performed a bilateral mastectomy. I am recovering well. I trust this doctor and would recommend him.

Dr. Sumet is a skilled surgeon with great communication skills. I have complete confidence with Dr Sumet when he performed surgeries on me , including a life saving emergency operation. I have found his staff and interns that he instructs to be easy to talk to and take care of needs. I highly recommend Dr. Sumet for diagnosis and surgery.
