Patient Reviews
Jul 22, 2024
I recommend Dr Simmons to those seeking a primary care doctor. She is very thorough and takes the time to answer questions and address your concerns. Her office staff is professional and her office is free standing and not within a large professional building or hospital, so easy to get to. Dr Simmons also takes next day and same day appointments which is convenient.
