Patient Reviews
Nov 17, 2023
Dr. Simon was recommended to me by three different people, to repair a double hernia. He is a very , knowledgeable/professional surgeon. My surgery was almost painless and very effective. Ten years later no problems, no setbacks. I'm a very active 76 yr old now, and I've tested his work. I highly reccommend him. I've spent some time in the waiting room but definitely worth the wait.
