Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Simmons?
I decided to change find a doctor closer to my home. I found Dr Agnes Simmons online. Because she is one block away from where I live it's safer than going all the way downtown to my previous doctor during Covid. My first visit was last April 2020. I waited 2 hours after my schedule appointment with her. I was next then Dr Simmons took someone before me. I didn't say anyting. Now, it's my turn. She is short fused and no bedside manners. She seem to forgot what she just told me. I finially had another visit online with her January 12, 2021. Gave her all the dates of my radiology test, eye visit from August 2020 (EKG-Chest XRAY). i ask did she receive the results, she said yes then she did nt go over them with me. She explained that she rather have visits in her office. (?) She got my medications mixed up at RiteAide. Then I changed it tot CVS. Dr Simmons is a very confused PCP. I still have not received a couple of referrals she said she will mail them to me. No meds in over 3 weeks.
