Patient Reviews
Oct 09, 2020
Dr. Simms is an amazing surgeon hands down. His bedside manners are impeccable as well. I am giving four stars because his assistant Jen is just horrendous. It’s such a shame that she works with someone as brilliant as Dr. Simms. This broad is just downright rude, have zero customer service, zero empathy for patients. She plainly has no business being in the health care industry. Another reason for four stars is for always running late. Now with Covid, they make you wait outside the office. So you’re looking at 15-25 minutes wait, give or take.
