Infinitely better than the doctors at Boston Road Medical who destroyed my health by giving me *3* nausea inducing antibiotics in a row, with PERMANENT consequences. I'd be far better off now than if I had never gone to Boston Road Medical, which you still rank highly when all but one of the fantastic doctors they use to have, have left. Dr. Simons is a careful listener and very competent. I'm tremendously relieved to find him after the horrendous experience I had with my last PCP.
Pretty nice doctor... but the whole wait time makes me regret coming here my appointment was at 230 I was seen by 330 and as I write this it's 540 and I'm still here waiting to do blood work....

Good

This reminded me of a medical camp in a third world country. Too many patients from India and Bangeladesh !! And I was being triaged and another worker kept bringing other patients into my room while I was being seen. Although he said excuse me all three times it still felt like an invasion of my right to privacy. I would avoid this place at all costs. Im looking for a doctor not a CLINIC!!
Muy buen dr
Verified patient
Dr was very friendly and professional. .but the wait time was horrible. .I waited for 2 hrs to see the doctor and I had an appointment? This Makes No Sense?
Verified patient
Service by front desk people sucked. They were all justvtalking to eachother ignoring the patients. People were waiting on line to speak with them and it was if the patients werent there. Horrible front desk service.
I really love the doctors here. They are very professional and seem to be genuinely concerned with the welfare of their patients. This is now my primary. I strongly recommend them.
Verified patient
My visit with the doctor himself was great!!! The front desk staff is HORRIBLE!!! I made an appointment on ZOCDOC to see Dr. Simon. I had done this once before and both times, when I arrive, I am told I have to see another Dr. Afterwards, I was told that I had to wait to see Dr. Simon, because he was the only on who would write my prescription. My appointment time was for 1 pm and I did not get to see Dr. Simon until almost 7 pm. I was told that they use Dr. Simon's name on ZocDoc, but you are not requesting an appointment with him specifically. The times on ZocDoc are for all dr's in the clinic.
He's ok
HORRIBLE!! DOCTOR IS CLUELESS!
I'm so glad I found Dr. Simmons.
Verified patient
The staff at Dr Simons's office is very unprofessional. They talk about you in Spanish. and assume you don't know the language which is offensive and disrespectful but also look miserable and unwelcoming. The nurses serve you immediately however you wait an exorbitant amount of time for the doctor. The office is was trash but the girls in the front brought out the worst. It is a shame that they are representative of this doctor.
Verified patient
Knowledgable, convenient, and exactly how I expected it; and then some. I HATE HHC OF NYC!!!! "Stinking lincoln" Jacobi, Harlem hospital, and the others that failed to offer what dr. Simons granted. Thank you Jesus for people like Dr. Simons.
Verified patient
I showed up 15 minutes before the appointment and had to wait almost 2 hours to see the doctor. the doctor was in a dirty torrn lab jacket.
Verified patient
Visit was good. Support staff could use work.
He listened and took his time getting to know me and my symptoms and medical history. I appreciated his thorough questions and friendly manner.
Verified patient
He was pretty good with my wife...my appt was very brief, I was there pretty much to est. a new primary physician. Front desk needs to be more attentive to pts walking in.
This review is based on having been to the office twice-for my original appointment and a follow up appointment. The first time, I scheduled my appt. on Zocdoc w/ Dr. Simons, but upon arriving, I was told that he was not in, so I met with nurse practitioner Bill Wagner. He was very down to earth and took the time to explain things. I didn't find this to be the case with Dr. Simons. He seemed fairly indifferent. For example, he told me I had an infection, but didn't tell me what kind it was until I asked. This is not okay. In terms of the office staff, they seemed like they wanted to be elsewhere. Also, when scheduling a followup, it appears that they just pick a date at random, so make sure you request a specific date and time and if you reschedule an appointment TRIPLE check that it was actually rescheduled.
Dr. Simons is a serious, caring doctor. His exam was thorough, his concern was reassuring & I followed his recommendations. I appreciate it, Dr. Simons!
Great Doctor. Definitely coming back
Verified patient

Verified patient

Verified patient

This doctor is wonderful. I am a senior citizen with several problems for which I visit many specialists. Dr. Simons is wonderful at coordinating ALL my care.
He was really efficient and very detailed oriented on my first visit and follow-up was great too. I've seen him many times and really think he is great.
