Patient Reviews

The following are reviews from patients of Dr. Simons.

“Dr. Simons was very thorough and honest when discussing my treatment. He also made my daughter and me very comfortable with my decision for the upcoming treatment as well. When I was sent upstairs to the Lab for a blood draw, the techs had difficulty with my veins, yet they did not hurt me nor was I bruised. They both did everything to make me comfortable while completing their job.”

“Fantastic, straight to the point and told me there was nothing that he could do for me at the present. He stated that new things are coming out daily and he didn’t want to do any disservice to me now to just wait to see what might come up in the future. I really want to thank him for his honesty, great personality and will keep in touch with him.”

“I was in need of replacing my artificial knee of 15 years. I met with the PA of Dr. Hansen and he referred me to Dr. Simons, who I was told he specialized in removal of the old and could install the new. Dr. Simons showed me that I had worn down the artificial knee and he boldly said, "I can fix that." He sure did and today the knee is pain free and I can do as much as it will let me do. Great Doctor. Thank you to Sierra Orthopedic. You guys are the best.”

“My primary Doctor referred me to Sierra Pacific. After meeting with the first doctor he referred me to Dr. Simons as the severe arthritis I have has deteriorated both my hips. I arrived for my appointment with Dr.Simons and had a seat in his waiting area. As soon as I sat down the others who where there to see him began sharing stories of how wonderful they are doing under his care. I was already looking forward to my appointment and this made me feel even better. He lived up to his reputation. My meeting with him was very comfortable. We reviewed my X-rays, talked extensively and came up with a plan to get me back in good health. I feel really good about the decisions made and feel very confident I will be receiving excellent care from Dr. Simons and his staff.”
