The NP refused to do a Physical Exam. Told me to come back and see Dr. Young but he is never available. So I guess I have to find a new PCP so I can actually have a physical. What a waste of time.

Erica was exactly the nurse practitioner that I was hoping to find after moving from out of state to Arizona. Establishing care with her was pleasant and easy. She was informative, kind, understanding, and reassuring. I can hardly wait to continue to get to know her and work on my health goals with her support.
Verified patient
I had such a great experience! I am very scared and anxious to find a new doctor. I feel I will be judged and not listened to or rushed out. Erica Simmons took her time, we talked a lot and laughed. She made me feel good and comfortable, my anxiety went away in no time. She was concerned that I got everything I wanted and needed taken care of. Right away had my prescriptions called in, my bloodwork, all my testing set up, next appointment. I would highly recommend Erica Simmons! My families always looking for a great doctor so I have told them all about her. She is loving, caring and compassionate....great bedside manner! Belinda

Dr. Simmons is very clear and accurate in explaining what you need to know and learn. She is highly professional and knowledgeable, always ready to provide answers to your questions. Her warm and beautiful smile makes you feel more comfortable speaking with her—especially important for me as a new patient. I highly recommend her for her excellent character, professionalism, deep knowledge in her field, and overall quality of service.
Ms. Simmons was very nice and friendly. She was thorough in taking my history and during the exam. She gave me easy to follow steps for some at home stuff. I felt very comfortable and heard, she took everything I said seriously and didn't dismiss anything. Her office was neat and tidy. Her staff were very nice as well. 10/10, would recommend.
Verified patient
My husband and I both had appointments at IMS. Office of Dr. Wwston Young My appointment was scheduled for 1:00 pm, his was for 4pm We arrived 15 minutes earlier, when we realized there where on lunch time, we started walking back to the car, when someone opened the door and let us in, so we didn't have to sit in the car, temperatures were 105 degrees We were happy for the office staff gesture We got checked in, and they asked if we wanted the three o'clock instead of four o'clock I asked if we could be see back to back, since the nature of 5he visit was only to establish a care relationship. One of the ladies asked the doctor, and she agreed Dr. Erixa Simmons FNP.Was very detailed taking all medical information She was very nice Didn't skip one single detail or question to be asked. Because we had a bad experience with the previous medical office, Im very aware of the medical care I want for myself and my husband I highly recommend IMS. Thank you,
