He is always patient, thorough, and explains well. He answered all of my questions. The best urologist at Five Valleys of the four I’ve seen.

Dr. Simmons is excellent in many ways. Always explains test results in an understandable manner. Listens to me regarding my concerns relative to issues I have regarding my urology health. Makes sensible recommendations for medical options if needed.
