Patient Reviews
May 23, 2023
I was referred to Dr. Sims, and best decision I ever made. He is on top of his game and all research. His referrals to specialists are easy and the specialists quickly diagnosed a health problem I have that no other doctor cared enough to dig into. I am grateful for Dr. Sims and his amazing office staff.
