Scott R. Sommers's Online Review Report Card

I was scared when diagnosed with breast cancer. He helped me understand and know my treatment options

Quiet, considerate, and explained diagnosis well. Soft spoken and confident when we were really worried about my cancer diagnosis.

I took my daughter to see Dr. Scott Sommers today 6/17/21 this was the worst Doctor I have ever been to He was very rude to me and my daughter from the time he walked in the door he never raised his head up or looked at either of us just kept his head down and mumbled like the review above said he had the bedside manner of a mortician maybe even a dead man it was awful acted like he hated his job and did not want to be there. my daughter has a blood disorder and was seeing another Dr. that was treating her but once she went to USC Columbia for school we had to get her a Doctor there. I just can't put into words how bad this Dr. is nobody should treat people the way we were treated I get he is a doctor and thinks he is better than everybody else but somebody needs to put him in his place. Please don't make you are your family member an appointment with this Doctor and have to go through what we did.

Took time to answer all our questions. Caring staff. Knowledgeable and well respected by other doctors I have.

Listens to all complaints. Explains thoroughly. He is direct and to the point. Knowledgeable and considerate.

Friendly and courteous. Great experience with awful disease.

Thorough doctor. Practical. Staff is very friendly.

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I wasn't sure about oncology and the idea of chemotherapy. He arranged for a genetic test that told me I didn't need chemo for my breast cancer. He is thorough and answers all my questions.

Insightful and caring. Has a dry sense of humor, but clear he cares. Had second opinion somewhere else and they agreed with his treatments. Love his staff, nurses and secretaries are very kind and helpful.

Excellent oncologist, I would recommend him to anyone.

If you’re a patient of Dr Scott Summers please immediately find someone who is a good doctor if you value you’re life Scott Summers is a horrible doctor....... Runnnnnn to find a new Physician.

2018 I have been seeing Dr.Sommers for five years. After my first Oncologist retired, I was fortunate to be assigned to Dr Sommers. I am a senior lady, strong willed, and have reached a point in my life where "it is my body, do not dictate to me." We will discuss the issue, and I will determine ya or na ! Dr Sommers is very open to listening to my input. He is a highly intelligent man, and I respect him, but the bottom line is "it is my body." He has cared for me through tough times, and so far the good years. Hope we continue traveling this journey together however it shakes out ! I know I will have great care. Dr Sommer 's has the " E" gene EMPATHY Thanks to all the Kershaw Health staff (Nancy Rose you are a sweet, dear soul) I have had excellent care throughout all my health issues! Bigger isn't always better. Thank you, Carolyn Johnson

I would not go to this clinic nor would I choose Dr. Scott Sommers for a family member with cancer. He follows a robotic protocol. He has the bedside manner of a mortician. This Doctor appears totally unaware of natural ways to help cancer patients. I'm convinced my father would still be alive if he had not been aggressively treated with chemo and radiation.

I am not sure if Dr Sommers and/or staff will read, but it needs to be said. My mother's birthday is tomorrow and I need for anyone looking for a bright, kind, compassionate staff that will treat you as family, Dr. Sommers is a great choice. My mother was diagnosed with lung cancer and received care from Dr. Sommers at SCOA and Kershaw Health. My mother began treatment scared and soon, she looked forward to chemo because she was able to see people that she grew to love. I know that they have many patients but they never ceased to make my mother feel special. She wholeheartedly loved them and enjoyed every second she had with them. Maybe a little too much sometimes. I would have to wheel her out while she was joking with Dr. Sommers. I know that he was busy and had many patients but he never made her feel rushed and never unwelcome. She trusted him with her life and she had every right to. He is compassionate to his patients and has there best interests at heart. I have seen it first hand and I will be eternally grateful. I am in the military and I didn't have a chance to see him before I moved. Dr. Sommers, if you do get a chance to read this, thank you for everything you did for my mother and thank you for making her feel safe. I swore to her when she went into the hospital the last time that I wouldn't leave her side. I held her hand all day and night. Every time she woke up, she would smile at me. She passed as I held her hand and the family went to bed. She was never by herself. I know that she would want me to tell you, thank you and that she loves you. I will be dropping in to see you when I come home to see family. Take care.

Great caring doctor.
