I had a good experience at my visit, partly because I was ready for the forms that came with a first visit. So I recommend to come 30 minutes before to be able to ask questions and still be in time with your appointment. From there I was taken back within 5-10 minutes of my appointment time. I spent most of my time with the nurse from there and then about 15 min from getting to the room I saw the doctor. Please make sure you either come for a physical OR medical questions/concerns since they specified they can't do both. I came for general medical inquiry and got everything answered, then was out quickly. There are some words and things I missed from Dr. Simon when he was answering my questions, but that is a small thing. Would love to come back here for my appointments again!

More about Dr. David Simon, MD
For patient safety, MemorialCare Medical Group providers will not prescribe most controlled substances (including opioids like codeine, and benzodiazepines like valium) for new patients they have only evaluated via telehealth, rather than in person. Many controlled substances have a high potential for abuse, and overdose on controlled substances may result in death. Without an in person visit, the potential risk outweighs the intended benefit.
If you believe you may need a prescription for a controlled substance, please schedule an in person visit.
Dr. Simon is board certified in internal medicine. With the explosion of medical technology, he feels there is no other field more exciting than medicine today. It's the only field he knows that has applied science, art and humanistic qualities. He encourages his patients to adopt healthy lifestyles and have a strong belief in health screening and preventive health.
Dr. Simon enjoys the outdoors and prefers vigorous exercise. He is an avid road and mountain cyclist and also enjoys hiking, backpacking and snow skiing.
Dr. Simon is a former Chief of Internal Medicine of Anaheim Memorial Hospital.

Dr. Simon is an excellent physician. I believe that Memorial Care Med. Group is fortunate to have him in their group. I find him to be a friendly, compassionate person who genuinely cares about his patients. I first came to your group when I was a patient of Dr. Robert Allison's; and upon his retirement, Dr. Thomas Guiltinan became my primary care physician. At his retirement, I selected Dr. Simon, and I have been quite satisfied with his care. The Anaheim facility is not nearly as close to my home as other Memorial Care facilities are, but I am willing to drive to the Anaheim office because I am more than pleased with Dr. Simon's care.
