Dr. Simms-Cendan is a gem. My daughter and I actually look forward to seeing her because she makes us so comfortable and is so personable. I have to admit, as a millenial mom, whose mother did not share much about female reproductive health, etc. Talking to Dr. Simms even puts me at ease. She is extremely knowledgable and forthcoming with that knowledge. You can tell she wholeheartedly cares about each of her patients. I consider my daughter lucky to be a patient of hers.
