Lamentable la atención q recibí cuando fui por un tratamiento de esa Clinica, me atendió el Dr Sims y no esperaba esa tan desagradable experiencia en un momento de tanto dolor debido a un accidente automovilístico. Esperaba otra atención Y no sentirme tan humillada ! Jamás lo recomendaré!

Dr. Sims is the best doctor I have ever had. He has performed surgery on me twice so far. He has a great bedside manner and is highly intelligent and knowledgeable. He's also just invented a new spinal surgery invention that is now being used by patients. Our whole family loves him. I would recommend him to everyone!

Only cares about money. Why do you think you have so many appointments and eventually have surgery or have surgery and then have to go back a 100 times. Worse experience ever and a waste of time and money.
