Dr Simpson is great. Highly recommend her. She listens to you and cares about you. I saw Dr Paty for years . It took a little while to get use to another Dr. But she's great. Love Marion her LPN .

Had been seeing Dr. Paty for years and when he retired, Dr. Simpson took over his patients. Have been very pleased with the care I have received.

Would not ever go to this doctor again. I had x-rays done I ask her about her opinion she didn't even look at them. All she had to say was there in my inbox. She never wanted to try me on arthritis meds. I bearly could walk at the time. I now have a doctor that is helping me and I can walk some now and I have a chance at a normal life. Would not recommend this doctor to anyone.

I didn't like the tone of this dr and how I was spoken to. She did not listen or do a thorough exam, and gave a completely different dx than my pcp advised. It didn't make any sense according to my bloodwork and symptoms. She is apparently not experienced with diagnosing autoimmune diseases. Another rheumatologist was able to give me an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
