She's not only top notch in her assessment skills, but fantastic listener to answer all your questions. I feel blessed that Dr. Magill recommended her. She is thorough, compassionate and reassuring especially since my ongoing eye pain has been stressful and ongoing. My Gamma Knife is 2 weeks away and she reassured me I'll be in good hands! She's so personable on top all of her top notch skills. Wow! Northwestern is so blessed to have her!

Dr. Simon spends a lot of time with her patients and shows true concern for them. She also made recommendations outside of her field for my safety and well being. Lastly, she followed up with a call to me letting me know that she was taking care of everything she told me she was going to do when I met with her earlier today. Great Great Doctor.....

Dr Simon is my new favorite doctor. She was so comfortable and made me feel so comfortable. Her staff is INCREDIBLE and the whole process makes you feel valued and cared about. It's hard to put into words as her entire process is like a well oiled machine but very human. Thank you Dr Simon and staff!
