I was very happy with Dr. Simmons. She was very concerned with my medical problems and took her time discussing the necessary steps in resolving the issues. She has been very busy during our first appointments, and I had been disappointed in her attitude at the time. I believe she was “over-booked, which is the fault of her staff. She was running an hour and a half behind at the time. Everything seems to be corrected now. “Third times a charm!”

I was very impressed with the doctor. This was my first visit with her, as my previous doctor at this office moved to another office. She was great also. Dr. Simmons was very thourgh and made me feel very comfortable with her being my new primary care provider. I am 72 years old with multiple health issues. She was very knowledgeable about all of them and really took the time to familiarize with treatment history. She listened. Totally satisfied with her as my doctor.
