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.

Excellent
I first encountered Dr. Simela while he was working for the VA. He is an extremely patient doctor that listened and did not rush me. He was extremely informative, took his time explaining everything and assisted me with my orthopedic needs beyond my expectations. He is an amazing doctor that is very knowledgeable.

Horrible doctor, never keep appointment schedule, always require patient to wait over an hour for that scheduled appointment. Don’t follow up, no call back after 8 phone calls. Just a horrible doctor.
