Called me right away and also set up appointment for this later that day which I didn't end up needing. I did see one of his staff the following day to discuss rehab.

I greatly appreciate Dr. Simmons and his time and taking care of me and keeping me on track of my health. At my age, it's not been easy living here unlike this early my whole entire life and I've had my bumps and bruises and he keeps me going and keeps me working and I appreciate his time, respect and knowledge. He's greatly knowledgeable and he's a good man. So thank you very much.

That's good as could be expected. No major problems to deal with. The doctor spent more time with me than I felt was necessary. But that's OK. I'm not complaining.

Scott Simmons is a very great primary care doctor. I've had him for years. He's on the ball. He listens to what I say. He suggests all the right things. He's taken very good care of me. Although I wish I would be able to get a friend or family member into his office. They're currently not accepting new patients here at Martha's Ear Hospital, all primary care, which is unfortunate. But I would recommend Mr. Simmons over anyone.
