A message from Dr. Cummins:

"It's truly humbling to be nominated for the second time as the Academy of Master Clinicians (Clinician of the Month). I am very grateful for our patients and great colleagues at Division of Urology, Dept of Surgery and UTMB Health with their support one can pursue a professional life full of purpose, passion and service."

Congratulations, Dr. Cummins!
