I love Dr. Simmonds. It is obvious she refused my file before my appointment and knows about my health and history. She always listens to my questions and we have an excellent conversation about my concerns and health. She provides valuable input and suggestions. I have recommended her to several others recently.

This is my second time seeing Dr. Simmonds and I couldn''t be more pleased to have her as my PC. She is extremely knowledgeable and empathetic, making sure that I had ample time to communicate my questions and health concerns, and she really made me feel like I was seen and heard. She was extremely familiar with the supplements I had questions about, and I really appreciated how she approached my healthcare from a holistic perspective. In addition, after I saw her last year she promised to send me some information regarding shoulder exercises, and quickly followed up with a MyChart message providing a detailed response with a number of helpful resources as references. I was actually shocked not only at how quickly she sent the follow up message, but at the thoroughness of her response. It definitely reinforced my impression of what a committed caregiver she is.Lastly, I have seen many female specialists over the years, and to be clear, I have ZERO issues or concerns with receiving treatment from women as opposed to men, but I wasn''t sure if I would feel different in the context of a Primary Care provider - especially given how personal some of the discussions can be as men age. I think that concern lasted about 30 seconds once she entered the room. Her bedside manner is superb and I immediately felt comfortable opening up to her. Her blend of humor, empathy, professionalism and deep knowledge are - for lack of a better term - disarming, and I am so thankful I made the choice to see her last year.

I don''t know how I got so lucky to get Dr. Simmonds as my doctor, but I have never had such a thorough realistic down to earth helpful doctor in my 48 years and we need more like her not only does she go detail when it comes to my health, she also understands addiction in most doctors do not. I hope everybody can get a doctor like I have.

Dr. Simmonds is genuinely concerned about my health as she tried to help me getting seen in the ED ASAP. She went above and beyond by calling the ED about my severe pain and illness that needed to be addressed before I became more ill and critical. I really appreciate her help and care.
