I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Simon during my hospital stay. When she suggested something as a preventative measure, I declined and expressed my preference to go home instead. She responded in a condescending manner, saying, 'If you think having a baby in the hospital with all these nurses is hard, just wait until you get home.'Her comment was not only dismissive but also heartbreaking to someone who had given birth 24 hours earlier and would inevitable go home without help. This was a terrible thing to say ... read more

I enjoyed Dr. Simon when I was pregnant with my baby but all future visits were rushed , she is beyond rude if you question her on anything, and is not willing to listen to her patients. I also tried to schedule an appt with her for a problem visit and she refused to see me until my one year check up which was three months away. Run from this office

I found her to be rude and cold and disinterested in helping to really answer my questions or spend time on my concerns. She recommended a product and when I asked which brands or types she thought best, she told me to download an app where there are lots of discussions about it. Then, I discussed my menopause weight gain despite my constant dieting and exercise, etc, and asked for advice, and she literally told me to do more crunches. lol. the worst.

I think Dr. Simon was a wonderful gyn. I appreciated her humor and personality, but once I got pregnant I didn’t love my appointments with her. She was always late, rushed and seemed like she didn’t even know who was sitting on her table. At my postpartum visit she walked in 45 minutes late and said “ah my last vagina of the day.” As somebody who has experienced sexual assault (which was on my record) to be dehumanized like that - especially in the throes of post partum depression, was really the final straw.

I’ve never left a review for a doctor, but I feel so strongly about how horrible my experience was with Dr. Simon during my pregnancy. Without getting into details, she was dismissive, condescending, displayed zero empathy for a difficult pregnancy and was extremely disrespectful to me just as a human being, let alone a pregnant patient. I dreaded my appointments with her and could not understand why I left appointments with her feeling like “why does this doctor think it’s ok to talk to me this way?” She is a bully, she is ... read more

Absolutely do NOT recommend. I have nightmares from my pregnancy after having her as a doctor. She is SO rushed, extremely impatient, and does not even read your chart before coming into the room. I had to keep correcting major details because she didn’t even read where I was in my pregnancy or what was going on! She does not answer questions, is not thorough and just wants to get out of the room and on to the next. Find a much more compassionate and careful doctor.

I have never written a bad review for a doctor before, but I have had such a horrendous experience with Dr. Simon. Here are some reasons: -She has ZERO empathy and NO respect for her patients (which I think is important for an OBGYN to have with her pregnant patients....) -She rushes through the appointments and cant wait to leave the room -She constantly would forget or miss key details from my medical history, ultimately flip flopping advice when I would remind her (this happened several times over the course of my pregnan... read more

As a woman way passed menopause, I found Dr Simon to be receptive and understanding of issues that women my age experience. I felt way more relaxed being able to be candid than I have been with other gynecologists. There are few DES daughters coming through offices; she took the time to research medications’ interactions to prevent waking any possible effects from this dormant meds taken by my mother while pregnant w me. She got back to me with her research to discuss my options. She is A+ in my book.

These negative reviews definitely do not describe the Doctor that delivered my son a year ago. She is the best Doctor I ever had and spent way more than 5 min like some of you said. She would listen to my stories about things my in laws did to upset me and I even joked it was like a therapy session . She’s a very compassionate Doctor that would hug me when she knew I was getting anxious to have a c section.
