Dr. Kim Simons PA gave my son 3 diagnoses in 3 visits. When a specialist can't determine MOLES vs. VIRAL WARTS vs. Molluscum - there is a BIG PROBLEM. Then it's my fault, as a parent, I lost confidence in her professional treatment ability?When we came back for the 3rd visit, we were 40 minutes past our appointment time as the PA had to talk to an actual dermatologist BEFORE seeing my son for a treatment plan. Then when I wanted to talk to actual dermatologist she consulted with myself at the visit, it became the most unpleasant, contentious bedside manner I've experienced by Dr. Kim Simons PA. This provider needs much needed diagnosis training as well as communication and accountability training. If all the providers talked to patients the way she talked to me, your practice would be flooded with negative reviews. Even my 6 year old son was clinging to my leg as the conversation was so elevated. Maybe this provider can't handle a patient holding them accountable while taking zero accountability. It was a conversation riddled with excuses and dodgy redorik that just kept making the situation worse. Defensiveness doesn't create an environment for conflict resolution. We were also charged 3 specialty co-pays and a surgical procedure code which is incorrect. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PRACTICE.

The appointment that I made online was really far out. When I was there, I had to wait a while to be seen, and the front desk people weren't the nicest. I selected a skin exam for my appointment and thought that meant a full skin exam, but I was somewhat rudely informed that was not the case, and that they only had time to take a look at a few problem areas. They said the problem areas weren't a concern but didn't really explain why. I would recommend finding somewhere else to go.
The office, staff and doctors are awesome! They always get me in in a timely fashion and listen to my concerns and take their time. I never feel rushed. The PA I see, Kimberly Simons, is phenomenal!

Very pleased with my visit and procedure at this office.. Starting at the front desk, everybody was pleasant and helpful... The doctor I saw was Kimberly and she was outstanding and went above and beyond my expectations. She was gentle and answered all my questions. I plan on returning to have more procedures performed by her. Also, the office area was beautiful and clean, and I felt very. comfortable the entire time and kept in touch if they were running behind. I give them an A+
letting me know that they didn’t do full body exams on the first appointment. I asked why. She told me it was “just their policy”. To be clear, their policy is NOT to care for you to the best of their ability, completely and expediently. Their aim is to nickel and dime you to death. I told her I’d rather be dead than let them screw me around like that. She chastised me and told me if I used language like that she would have to report me for mental health. Dermatologist are a dime a dozen. Everything in my gut says hell no. I canceled my appointment.
Finally decide to do the research, find an 'in network' dermatologist with supposed 'low cost' and 'good service' to do a *gulp* full body skin cancer screening that I see recommended by every board certified dermatologist everywhere all the time. Great. Appointment booked online on their website. Now to just worry for the next two weeks before the appointment and then panic when I inevitably get the $$ bill, right?
Except I got a call two days later from their front desk saying that that the appointment booking website doesn't clarify that "New Patients can't have full body skin cancer exams." ???? and that I have to "pick top or bottom" and then they'd need to make a second appointment for the other half."
What?! The amount of skin on my whole body is the same whether I'm an old or new patient and all the new patient insurance info and data was pre-filled out online by myself the day before.
I clarified to the assistant that I'm not going there to get lotions or about acne or a rash anything like that; the sole purpose for the visit was skin cancer screening and she said the same thing.
As the time of my appointment got closer the friends that urged me to make the appointment in the first place pointed out how weird it was, and how every board certified dermatologist always says to schedule a FULL BODY exam for your first real skin cancer screening and then do it all again annually. So this is apparently the only place anywhere where I've got to pick which half of my body I feel is most at risk and then wait anxiously for however long it takes to get a second appointment to come back for the second half?!
One of them pointed out that her insurance literally wouldn't let you get an two skin cancer screenings close together since it's meant to be an annual thing, and we came to the conclusion that it has to be about money, right? Like it has to be about getting another exam fee out of me right?! I could already see the calls I would have to make to my insurance to fight the future bills so I chose peace instead and canceled.
