Dr. Simmons is a fantastic medical professional. He is kind, caring, patient and explains my wife's health issues without be overly medical with his explanations.

Dr. Listened asked questions and gave me options. Example: do you want to try different medication or physical therapy?

I LOVE Dr. Simmons. He is by far one of the best doctors I've ever seen. He is highly personable and engages in casual conversation with me without making me feel rushed. He is intelligent but speaks with me, instead of to me. He makes me feel heard and allows me to find the right words to explain how I am feeling/thinking (even if he already knows what I am saying). Bottom line, he doesn't rush me, speaks to me in a respectful tone/manner and I truly feel that he cares about me and the level of care he gives.
