Caring, attentive, professional and thorough.

My Doctor And Staff gives great care

She tries to rush out...and I did not have a good mood to see her after waiting over an hour...this is the worse physican check up which the office should not charge. I DO NOT think that I was at the doctor's office for physical check up. It was so fast...rushed....can not remember anything.

After thorough communication, I left feeling I was taken care of very well.Future visits will get easier,& more comfortable.

Very nice

Doctor is excellent

Dr. Simmons is wonderful!

The virtual appointment was scheduled for 9:30 and the doctor came online at 9:55! Was not prepared to discuss the full reason for my visit and never even followed through on getting a prior authorization for medication. Am not able to communicate with the office my portal messages are ignored and you cannot contact anyone via phone. Worthless staff and unprofessional doctor.

Very happy with doctor and the time she takes to inform me of situation

Awesome service. My care provider was caring and listened. I felt heard and not rushed.

Dr. Simmons listened to my concerns, made eye contact and answered all of my questions in layman terms so I could understand.

Dr. Simmons always provides the best care and resources when it comes to any concerns I have.

My appt. Was at 10:39 am. I got there at 10:20. I waited until 12:00 to be seen The doctor mostly spent the time typing in the computer and missed addressing some of my concerns. When I wanted to ask other concerns she stated she had to see other patients and could not stay longer with me. Even though I had waited such a long time to be seen. I do not want to go to this doctor again.

EXCELLENT AND CARING INDIVIDUALS.

Dr. Simmons is always so kind and a great listener too.
