Wait time was maybe 10 minutes which I thought was fantastic, the ladies at the front desk were very warm and welcoming. Check-in was the easiest I had ever had anywhere. Dr Sims was very friendly, knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable which I can't say I have experienced with many doctors. He explained thoroughly my problems and what the first course of action was. I would highly recommend Dr Sims and the orthopedic clinic.

My impression after my first visit I have to say was excellent. The appointment reminder, pre check in, and pre payment on line was excellent and efficient. The staff was friendly and attentive. Dr. Sims was thorough in his explanation of my condition, my options, and his recommendations.
