Dr. Celina Marie Barba-Simic, MD

Pure evil. 0 compassion or empathy. Pure evil. Refused to even begin considering any physical issues but thinks things are “anxiety” Okay. Well I’ve been damaged by neglect.

Has been regularly dismissive every time I’ve seen her, only to have a follow up doctor confirm my concerns about serious issues. Regularly lets her biases override thorough care. Indirect and smug.

Dismissive and rude. If people like this are doctors then the medical system is truly truly broken. God help us

Dr Simic saved my life! I had months of symptoms that everyone ignored and she immediately diagnosed the brainstem tumor just by looking at my eyes. I had surgery the next day! Thank you!!

I went into the ER today. Numbness and tingling in my right hand, arm, leg and foot. Electrical feelings up my spine, into my neck and scalp. Yesterday, had blurred vision and a blind spot with swirling lights around it in my left eye that lasted for a few hours, couldn't walk without assistance. Dr. Simic barely looked at me as I spoke. When she asked about my symptoms, she kept referring to my headache. I said TWICE that I never had a headache (NEVER did i mention a headache). She said 'we'll do a ct scan to check on that tingling'. CT scan was clear. She said, ' you need to see a neurologist. probably should get an MRI'. I said, ' i don't have insurance right now'. she said' GO TO COUNTY. They will give you a deal'. I put my head down, trying to hide my tears and she left the room, in an instant and without another word. I was discharged with a form stating 'complicated migraine' as my reason for visiting the ER. WORST experience ever, I would never recommend her to anyone. ( The… nurse, Jimmy, however, was wonderful, attentive and respectful.) This is the ONLY 'review' I have ever written about anything. It was awful. I am at home now, with all of the same symptoms, wondering what to do next...
