Would recommend all day long
Dr. Simensky is an excellent communicator and helped me understand the next steps.
Great professional treatment.
Great experience
I liked him...easy to talk to
Good
Very thorough and knowledgeable had read my chart before I arrived. Had a great conversation about past health and current health.
Best doctor I've ever had. Wish there were more doctors like him out there.
I am often intimidated by this provider because of one experience and this visit was because I have some other health issues going on that another specialist was questioning if it was neurologic. When I talked with my PCP about the report and this potential problem which there is no cure for she told me to talk to him and ask him to be evaluated for this condition. After one previous visit when I had asked him about a test I got the feeling he didn't like to be questioned. This particular day as scared as I was he talked me through the condition, told me he thought there was only a 1% chance but there was a test he could do to see what was causing, the pain and weakness and fatigue that is so severe that I have to use a walker that I have been having for several months that no one can figure out. I even saw him laugh for the first time. It was a great visit.
We talked about my reaction to my prescription. There have been no problems and no need for any changes.
Dr is excellent, caring, thorough.
Extremely great experience
Care was with Dr S directly. He took time to explain thoroughly. He answered any questions and gave detail where to read more on specifics of my systems.
Great
Dr. Simenski is a well informed doctor and listens well, to both myself and my daughter.
The appointment was very good. The care providers very good. Dr Simensky communities very good.
Good
Dr. Simensky has a lot of experience, it gives him the ability to offer various options, and be honest about the realities of those options. He is easy for me to talk to, and cover complexities as well. Excellent!
Reviewed ongoing plan, satisfied with it, did not discuss other options
