Patient Reviews
Mar 13, 2024
Dr. Sims is exceptional. He dedicates time to discuss new milestones, listens attentively to our concerns, and imparts valuable expertise during appointments. We made the switch to Dr. Sims when our son was a month old and he is now four. We can't imagine having a different pediatrician. Highly recommended for his personalized care and expertise in pediatric health.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
