Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Ok as a doctor but more for herself than patient
I was hit by a car and assigned to her as one of my doctors in the hospital. She wrote out two prescriptions (WITH REFILLS) and canceled the refills once I didn't need her services (they were for iron and something else very harmless). No explanation, no nothing. The pharmacy just said she wouldn't aprrove it. So since I couldn't use her services anymore, she couldn't allow the refill to go through? Come on. Remember your oath

My Grandparents went to her for many yrs, and they absolutely adored her. After 30 yrs of specialist, Dr. Simon was the one who helped my Grandmother regain her mobility. Dr. Simon has a wonderful way of explaining accurately to other Drs and to insurance co. the solution. She was the one who got her all the things that she required to keep her out of a wheelchair , and walking even 15 yrs later. I can't say enough to describe my family's gratitude.

The way Dr Simon handled her practice in the last year was a nightmare for existing patients. Only coming to office once a month, a series of staff changes, no records of co pays that I paid in cash and they want me to repay. In the end she closed the practice with three weeks notice with no referral to another doctor. Many patients were on pain meds which left us all in the lurch. My primary care cant even get them to release my medical records to him. Total lack of concern for patients.

Dr Simon's practice closed May 6th. I was notified May 17th. The doctors and staff all lost their jobs when they found the same letter I received in the mail taped to the front door of the practice. I am so disappointed in Dr. Simon. I understand that she may have needed to close the practice for personal reasons, but the entire process should have been handled better. She paid no concern to those of us who are left without medication and without a doctor to receive much needed care.

I've been a patient of Dr Simons for the past few years until 3 months ago. She started seeing me only on Saturday and was becoming more unreliable . Today I went in for my monthly appointment and was told she was gone as of last Saturday . I'm on a medicine that she talked me into and that a lot of Drs don't prescribe. She knew I was leaving for Europe to be with my sister for a month in May, and now I may not be able to go. Thanks for nothing Dr Simon. Gotta find a new doc in 2 days??

After having a quite painful surgery, I had a hard time finding a local Dr., since I had recently moved to this area. Dr Simon was very understanding of my sort of embarrassing situation. She was not judgemental and I didn't feel rushed. She actually listens, instead of interrupting with her opinions or advise. I usually speak so fast at medical appts,to try to get all of my info out. She listened, then we discussed a plan. I have not felt this much relief since my surgery. Staff sweet 2! Thanks

Dr. Simon has been my Doctor for close to 10 years and I have had numerous surgeries and she has come to the hospital many times to see me. I trust her and I believe she is a very caring and good Doctor. She also has a very good bedside manner.

Dr Simon is a experienced and kind hearted person. She has helped me with a multitude of my problems. She doesn't judge she helps my overall health and is very prompt. I am happy with finding her. I have a journey to go but I feel confident in her care. She's a excellent doctor and a person you can talk to.
