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.

My visit is always a very good experience, I’m very happy going to Dr. Sims

Dr Eric Sims has been my podiatrist for 10 years. He is knowledgeable, very caring, engaged in his practice, highly reliable and always has an appointment for his patients. He has replaced a joint in my foot and my outcome was excellent. I am in the healthcare profession and I know what is expected. Sims Podiatry more than meets the grade - always. I highly recommend this practice.

I was fitted for, and received, orthopedic foot pads by Dr Erik Sims and his competent staff this past month of January 2016. I found Dr Sims to not only be very competent and professional, but also very personable and a pleasure to meet. Dr Sims and his staff use the most updated computerized equipment to assess the parameters required for personalized foot pads, especially for senior citizens like me whose feet have gradually changed over the years as a result of pronation or other issues.
