She's great.
I never saw Julia S Simonetti (listed in the my chart apt. As the person I'd be seeing) I only saw 1 person, I can't remember his title or his name, he wore red scrubs with red vans. He was kind, attentive explained everything well along with what to expect after and what I needed to do. I had a great experience with him.
Dr. Simonetti is seriously the most kind and personable provider. She listens, looks me in the eyes, gives good advice. She's so the bomb!

these answers are for Dr Somenti only she was very good
Just wish things were on time, so I didn't feel rushed tired and ready to get out of there
she is wonderful she cares about the patient
I felt that the PA was exceptional. She listened and responded to all of my questions; I did not feel rushed or given the feeling that she needed to move on to others. I was impressed that she had read the information forwarded to her from the referring physician, and was fully prepared to discuss that, and possible conditions I might have, with me. She is an excellent medical practitioner and I am pleased I was able to visit with her!
Under Dr Simonetti's care I have now lost 112 lbs. Love her personality and intelligence, but mostly love her skill and effectiveness in getting results! Truly believe she's one of the best bariatric doctors in the country!
Love Dr. Simonetti ! She manages in spite of all my other medical problems.
Since I have reached the goal set by the referring Doctor Daniel Vargo I feel that my seeing Dr. Simonetti is no longer necessary. I had the surgery in May 2022. I will leave option open to have another visit if I need it, because I could possibly use advice in the future about retaining my weight loss.
All good
Dr. Simonetti is the absolute best! She explains everything and is very thorough. She takes her time and does not rush through the appointment. She is one of the best doctors I've ever been to!

I didn't like having to go over everything with the fellow and the 2 other people in the room, and then having to repeat everything again once Dr. Simonetti came in for appt. I totally understand about students being in the room but I felt there was just too many people in the room at the same time while we were trying to manage my care.
Dr. Simonetti and her staff provide the best care I have ever received! Dr. Simonetti has helped me lose almost 60 pounds. She is the most caring and knowledgeable person! I have recommended her to others and will continue to do so.
Well it does take up to six months to be seen by her, so that is a hard one.
Dr Simonetti is so exceptionally compassionate, understanding, and encouraging. She shows a great deal of empathy especially considering that she sees people about essentially the same challenges every day. It has been hard to not see results as quickly as I wish they'd come, but she is helping me to not give up and continues to listen, problem solve, apply her expertise, think creatively, and resurrect hope, which is so critical for such a complex, lifelong, highly emotional and discouraging battle. If every doctor had the empathy and kindness of Simonetti, the world would be a better place.
love Dr. Simonetti!

Weight loss is difficult but in the past 2.5 years I've lost around 70 lbs mostly by just reducing portion size and backing off on Coca Cola.

Dr. Simonetti is an outstanding doctor. She watches so carefully for changes in my body chemistry and well-being. I appreciate her attention to detail and her personal connection.
She took the time to review everything and answered all my questions.
There were 2 doctors. One was Dr Simonetti and the other was there for just a week
This was my first visit with Dr. Simonetti and it went really really well. She's very tentative to my concerns.
Very good
I am 54 years old and she is the best most CARING doctor I have ever had in my life and I've had many. She is thorough and takes time to listen to what's really going on with you. And she has helped me so much with my health.
