Dr. Cummings is my primary care provider. She is a phenominally good family practicioner. She keeps very close track of my myriad of conditions. Her integration into the UW medical system is flawless. I am very fortunate to have her be my PCP.The Shoreline clinic appears to be almost overwhelmed communication wise as it is very difficult to reach people. I suggest that more support staff be hired and trained. Ultimately more physicians, RN's and nurse practitioners/PA's. And of course more CNA'sDespite my criticisms I feel that I have received the best care possible, performed by truly amazing people.
