Went for my husband to manage his blood pressure. Was blunt about how bad it was but I was glad he told him that so he realizes how serious it was. Totally trust his rx recommendation!

Dr. Simon is a wonderful doctor. He is very knowledgeable, companionate with his patients, and has a desire for them to get well. I highly recommend him to anyone. My daughter was very ill and because of God and Dr. Simon she is still with us today. If I could rate him with 50 stars I would do it in a heartbeat.May God bless him always.

Dr Simon is the best!! Not only has he exuded patience with me time and time again, but I have seen him talking with patients in the hospital hallways. He listens and HEARS their thoughts and concerns. He has the best bed side manner of ANY doctor I have ever had! I moved away from the Covington area years ago, but I still make the 45 minutes to hour trip to Covington in order to keep him as my doctor! I trust his advice and in the past 20 years he has never let me down! I wish there were more like him!

Very knowledgeable Dr.! Has helped myself and several of my family members get resolution and efficient care through a number of health issues. My wife has recently received treatment AND resolution from Dr. Simon to issues that 3 Neurologists could not solve. I will continue to trust my care and refer others to him for their health needs.

No communication with family members even when asked. Erroneous diagnosis, a lot of CYA going on. Wouldn’t let him treat my dog!
