“Informative and gets done what needs to be done. As much in one visit as possible -- I've dealt with other dermatologists who have told me "come back next week and we will finish the job" which costs me a lot of time and money.”

Thorough, professional and quality care. I have seen multiple other dermatologists and this was by far the best most knowable appointment I’ve had. Highly recommend.
Verified patient
Dr. S is a great listener and thoroughly explained my options, as well as coached me on the best course of action moving forward. Though I may take the medication route for this issue in the future, Dr. S did not want to immediately jump to meds like a lot of doctors do nowadays, and I respect that. I look forward to continuing care with Dr. S and this practice in the future.
Verified patient
I have a simple follow up question and after leaving a message never received a response. It is impossible to get an actual person on the phone. Terrible customer service!
Verified patient
Thoroughness of exam. Dr. Simodynes is proactive
The providers are very good, but it is difficult to schedule or reschedule an appointment. I tried 5x today do reschedule my appointment. One person disconnected me, one wouldn't do it without my Medicare number even though it was for a stitches removal, the office personnel was not available the next time I tried. Finally after leaving a message I received a call back 2 hrs later.
Friendly and efficient staff.
I had a thorough exam and addressed my concerns

The visit was very efficient. The physical area of the clinic is very clean and comfortable. The doctor was welcoming and professional. I am glad to make the visit. I do like the i-pad to fill out information. I understand the need for keeping my records up-to-date.
