I rarely review online, and I haven't even had my MRI yet, but the incompetence I've encountered is over the top. I made an appointment online for an MRI, which required me to enter the specific MRI I need, and I chose a location, as directed. I got a confirming email that asked me to complete some online forms before my appointment, but the link in the email was broken. Three days later I was informed that they can't perform the imaging I need at the location I chose and asked me to reschedule. The man who rescheduled me insisted I give him all of my insurance information again, even though it was in their system, which was annoying, but he made me a new appointment. Two days later I got a voicemail asking me to reschedule again due to "an equipment issue," so I called once again. I eventually reached a woman who did not ask me for my insurance information, but cut me off when she put me on hold. I called back and this time got the first guy again. When he started to ask for my insurance information and insisted he was required to do that, I asked to speak to a supervisor. After about 5 minutes on hold, I spoke to a supervisor and explained my frustration. He apologized, said he would coach the employee who mistakenly thinks he needs to reask for insurance info to reschedule, and booked my appointment at a third location. He also resent me the link to the forms, and this time it worked. I was flabbergasted 45 minutes later to receive yet another voicemail. Seems my new appointment was at a location (selected by the *supervisor*) that didn't have the necessary equipment! Once more I called. This time the woman apologized and wondered why they hadn't selected a location closer to my home. She rebooked me and, at my request, double checked to be sure they could do my MRI at this, the 4th site they've chosen for me. I am not optimistic, and I sincerely hope they are better at doing MRIs than they are at scheduling them. I will not use Simonmed again and will describe my experience to my doctor. read more

This place is trash I can see why they have two and a half stars. Probably the worst customer service ever. Super rude , no kind of phone number for you to call , No text reminders or emails for your appointment. I just don't know how a modern company in the medical industry can operate with such inefficiency and lack of communication skills or basic respect for people. read more

This company is very frustrating to work with. I had a procedure on 9/10/21. Medicare denied my claim so I paid Simon Med the full amount they charged. I appealed to Medicare and they reversed their decision. So Medicare paid Simon Med and said the maximum I could be billed was a much smaller amount than the amount I paid. I asked Simon Med to refund me the amount I paid less the maximum amount I could be charged according to Medicare. I received an email from Simon Med on 11/20/22 that I would be receiving this refund. The refund amount is $511 and change - not an insignificant amount, especially for me a retiree. I have not received the refund despite calling numerous times. Each time I'm told that the refund is "pending". It's unfair that Simon Med has collected money from me as well as Medicare for the same procedure. I'm sure there's someone at Simon Med who could send me my refund If they felt like it. Thank you, Ted R Paetkau read more

Beyond unorganized. Not only did they lose my wife's paper work. She had an Ultra Sound done 9/28 and we are now 10/22 and they have not given us or our doctor the results. And when you call they are so rude. And liars. One week after the US I called and asked for the results and lady on the phone said they faxed it over. LIES. I have been speaking to my wife's doctor and staff and they have been called numerous time and they have claimed the same thing that SimonMed "faxed" it over. I have this guy feeling that since they last her paper work the day of the US they probably lost her results. Damn shame. This will be the 2nd SimonMed we have went to and they have screwed up one way or another read more

Wow talk about no customer service at the front desk and this whole facility! I understand we all wear face mask but speaking up and the tone of voice can make a difference. The technicians coming out to get the patient no warmth greeting or greeting at all. Let's not forget the wait time, my appt was at 11:15 asked to arrive by 11:00 to check in an hour later I was called in. The technician that came for me seemed bothered I asked how his day was "another day another dollar" . Where is the patient care and customer service? read more

Not as bad as everyone's saying, but still has some issues. The main problem is the front desk girls, they aren't very friendly or helpful and that's pretty much their only job. I was there for a simple X-Ray and once I got in everything was well done. read more

Oh and the Lindsay C that asks you to email the info address: the info email is not helpful at all. They leave you hanging, they don't help you out. And so they just respond with the message as if someone is going to take matters into their hands because of your legitimate complains. Do not use this place or Simonmed. I will never use Simonmed again for my imaging needs. Believe my review and the others that have given poor ratings. Don't buy the response message from these people who tell you who to contact. THEY DROP THE BALL AND DO NOT CARE. please read my original review of what happened. They let staff members who abuse patients get away with it. read more

I've had a few MRI/CT scan sessions at Simon Med between 2021 & 2022, so today was not my first time at the "rodeo" as far as this process. Prior to today, my most recent MRI/CT scan was done at the 3rd St & Thomas location (using one of the SAME newer/larger/faster machines). I've already spoken with corporate at this point (hours ago), but I'm deciding to share the experience on here as I ABSOLUTELY would have avoided this location had I read about an experience that was even REMOTELY close to what I experienced during todays visit. I'll just get right to it & say that the guy who ran my scans today (Brian) was EXTREMELY rude & quite possibly racist. Not sure what he had going on, but his attitude was off ever since he came out to the lobby to bring me back for the session. From the very beginning of today's visit all the way until the very end, his tone was VERY short, his demeanor was VERY nasty (which was UNACCEPTABLE), & having a "bad day" certainly wouldn't be an excuse for his behavior as my appointment was literally scheduled first thing in the morning. He never gave me a hospital gown prior to going into the machine (which was something I promptly received during ALL of my previous visits), & he just treated me differently than I was treated during my previous visits to other Simon Med locations (2830 N 3rd Street & 2141 E Camelback Rd). He didn't do the whole "How are you doing in there? Are you feeling ok?" thing at all during my scans (which they did at BOTH of the other locations), he lacked any level of compassion whatsoever & he was VERY rough/aggressive. Upon entering the scanning room (with ALL clothes on, since he never bothered to offer me a hospital gown [as stated]), Brian's actions confirmed just how uninterested he was in providing me with the same level of service that he would provide to other patients. He stood there asking me questions that I had already answered via the online check-in form AND on the order that my doctor would have submitted. As I took my shoes off before entering the machine, he roughly KICKED both shoes under the table as if he was purposely trying to scuff them. When I SLOWLY raised my arm (at HIS request) so he could administer the IV, he LURCHED away from me as if an alligator was attacking him. He only gave me the emergency "clicker" after I asked him for it, & throughout the session, he kept stopping & telling me there was "too much movement" when I was literally immobilized in a "Saw trap-like" head device that prevented me "moving" hardly AT ALL (outside of BREATHING & natural swallowing reflexes that any normal human would make [even WITHOUT bilateral Bell's Palsy & SEVERAL previous throat surgeries]). Let me be 100% clear in saying that I did NOTHING different between my previous visit & this visit & I had NO issues during prior visits, yet this guy kept saying there was "too much movement" & was just making the (ALREADY stressful) process of scanning for two possible tumors so much more difficult than it needed to be. As stated, this was NOT my first time at the "rodeo" & this was the SAME type of device/machine used during prior visits. God-forbid if a child ever had to deal with this guy, as he was asking me to do things that most ADULTS can't even do (unless they're just laying there DEAD). I literally had to stop & say "Brian, I DONT KNOW HOW LONG YOU'VE BEEN DOING THIS, but I'm literally laying in this machine breathing" as he apparently expects people to get in this machine & hold their breath for 30+ minutes. Altogether, Brian's behavior took what should have been a SIMPLE process (which I purposely scheduled FIRST THING IN THE MORNING [before heading to work]) & turned it into a complete nightmare. It truly saddens me to see Brian's name in other 1-star Yelp reviews for this location (dating back SEVERAL years), as it seems that Simon Med doesn't care about how poorly he treats patients of a certain demographic & Simon SURELY would have replaced him by now if they cared. As a result of all the above, I will ensure that I stick with the Thomas Rd. location or ANY location other than this one after what I endured today, & it's sad that I even have to go to this extent as this is the closest Simon Med location to my home. Regardless, I'll GLADLY make that sacrifice just to avoid a repeat of what I experienced today, & the fact that I'm willing to drive THREE TIMES the distance (with gas at $6 /gal) just to avoid being subjected to this level of ignorance/incompetence/racism again should give you an idea of just how bad it was. Based on my own observation, I highly doubt that Simon Med will make any adjustments at this location or take any action, but hopefully my little review will at least encourage SOMEONE to skip this location & AVOID being subjected to what I was subjected to this morning. Brian's behavior was unacceptable in every sense of the word, & he makes this entire company look bad. This location has 2 stars for a reason. read more

They called me 30 minutes before my appointment (that was booked for 2 weeks), to let me know that 2 of my 3 scans were denied by my insurance. We're in the midst of a pandemic and they had complete lack of social distancing in the waiting room. Packed in like sardines. Facility appeared to be quite dirty. Will never return to SimonMed. read more

They were my only choice for a referral from my doctor and they must know they have you cornered. Their automated system will keep you on hold for up to 45 minutes and then hang up on you. If you book online you get a text confirmation. That confirmation is not real. I showed up at the time and place it told me and they said they were to call and confirm. Of course they didn't. Do not use this company or location. Ask your doctor to give a different place if you can. read more

Had a horrible experience today at SimonMed in the Biltmore Fashion Park. The facility was extremely dirty, staff was rude and unhelpful, and the ultrasound technician made me feel very uncomfortable. You could also easily hear doctor/patient conversations from the lobby area. This office needs a wake-up call as a medical office should not be dirty in general, let alone during a pandemic. I am discouraged that I was unable to obtain the tests that I needed because of poor communication between the staff and how they made me feel in their facility. read more

Horrible wait time. Waiting an hour already, here for Renal ultrasound and had to hold my pee for more than an hour!!

TERRIBLE PLACE!!! If I could give a 0 star I would. I was scheduled an X-ray for 4:55pm. I arrive and the girl at the desk tells me they can't do my appointment because they're not able to do X-rays after 4 o'clock? Which I think it's an excuse for something. The same girl schedules me for the next day at 3:45pm. I go back during my lunch from work and another girl tells me that the lady doing running the X-ray is in a meeting and I would have to wait 40 mins because other walk-ins are ahead of me when I have an appointment. What's the point of having apportionment scheduled when the technician has a "meeting" and they let walk ins go ahead of you. Not only that they schedule me for another Simon med closer to my house and they schedule for the wrong date. Terrible receptionists and terrible customer service. read more

Here for MRI and X-ray. Girl at front desk was super friendly. The phones and computers were down and she was handling the chaos pretty well. Some dude named Brian came out and freaked out about HIPPA violations and told her that she could go to jail (she was checking on my co-pay, with me present, and with my consent). He was super unprofessional about it. Should have pulled her aside if he wanted to talk instead of threatening that she could go to jail. He was very efficient doing the MRI though. X-ray guy was also very nice. Later a super difficult patient came in and the staff were so professional and patient with him. Overall a good office. read more

2 apts. 2 days of sick time schedules. 1st apt - we double booked you. Please reschedule. 2nd apt - we booked the wrong tests...please reschedule. Based on the types of images I need I cannot go during a weekend. They offered no solution and if I go to another vendor for images I still have to take that third day sick to do these images. No resolution no solution no creative problem solving. Just little old me out 24 hours of sick leave time because of missmanagement with their intake. read more

Simon med has been a nightmare. I made an appointment for a diagnostic mammogram and ultra sound for a mass. Was able to get in quickly however, was sent to the wrong location. Was told I needed to go to biltmore. Arrived at biltmore they had pushed my appointment back because of the misinformation given to me. Filled paperwork signed in everything was going well until the receptionist calls me over and tells me am at the wrong location yet again. I said well you guys just told me she pushed my appointment so I could get it done. Then the receptionist tells me well you're at the wrong location and she is running behind so we need to reschedule you. Excuse me? I walked out. Called scheduling again they had the gall to tell me next available would be a month out! I could be dead by then! Needless to say I am no longer going to Simon med after going to them for literally years and never had an issue. It is no longer the same company it was before. My requisition for these procedures were faxed twice to them from my doctor's office and they still couldn't find the requisition. That alone should of been my first clue on how inept they are at scheduling and their receptionist are just as bad. Go somewhere else if you want to avoid a nightmare. read more

This is a terrible place. The scheduler first scheduled my procedure on the wrong day. I rescheduled and it was canceled. I rescheduled again and it was canceled the day before. So after three months, I still have not had my procedure. Unbelievable that a medical facility can be so impossible to deal with. I have decided to go elsewhere since this place clearly does not have its act together. I would seriously think twice about having anything done here. Mary read more

Worst customer service I have ever seen. Clinical staff are great. Front desk and central telephone office are completely incompetent. Were I a physician I would never refer my patients to them. read more

I made an appointment and was asked to arrive 15 minutes early. I arrived 25 minutes early and checked in. After waiting for an hour and watching dozens of people come and go, I asked if I had been forgotten. I was told that 3 walk-ins were ahead of me!! How ridiculous!! Why have an appointment?? How stupid is this? After discussing with Simonmed personnel it was determined that the best thing to do was walk in somewhere. What a pain in the ass, rude, and non-service oriented system. What dolts run this place!? Find another imaging service...do not recommend. What a waste of time. In case you couldn't tell, I'm pissed off big time. I would rate this as a negative 5-star review. read more

If I could rate a negative score I would! I have a medical exemption for masks-You would think a medical establishment would recognize this. Upon entry they treated me like a lepper, they were angry I was not masked up, they put me in a dressing room with drape closed FOR TWO HOURS (no one by the way was in the waiting room) and then the MRI tech was a joke. He was unfriendly and also treated me like a lepper. Once done, I was escorted out of a back door since I was so unlclean. The wait time total was over 2 hours and I never saw anyone in the building, but then again, they stashed me away in a corner. Ridiculous!!!! Terrible management and front desk lady. Shame on you tyrants!!! read more

I'm giving 2 stars as my previous visit was fairly seamless. I received a call regarding my prescription needing to be upgraded to a diagnostic mammo rather than a screening mammo. They contacted my doctor to do so. I showed up today for my appointment and was informed my insurance does not cover a diagnostic mammo and I need to pay $600. I found this unacceptable as I had a script for a screening mammo, they changed it to diagnostic and never mentioned it wouldn't be covered by insurance. I also did not appreciate the front desk person smirking rather than not apologizing for this mishap. I'm headed to Valley Radiology. read more

Avoid this place like the plague! I never even made it in for the imaging that was ordered by my doc. After my doctor's office faxed them a referral I heard nothing. So I called - after 5 days. They insisted they never got a referral. I watched staff at my doctor's office fax it. Thankfully I had a hard copy. First phone call got disconnected within about 5 minutes. Called back and got a different operator. Start all over again. What a dismal experience. This person was not familiar with much it seemed. First we had a 10 minute discussion about the parameters of my imaging. And an argument because the staff person was not familiar with any aspect of the test or the referral form. Next were some options that should have been at my prerogative but were denied out of hand. When I asked the reason I was told that I can't have it, staff doesn't know why, and was unwilling to find out why. Then we had a discussion and argument about my doctor who they insisted did not exist. Another 10 or 15 minutes to find him. So now I'm done with them. They're not the only imaging company in the valley. I would give them zero stars if I could. My advice: go somewhere, anywhere else! read more

I was overall pleased with my experience here. I had two technicians running my ultrasound and they were both very thorough and very understanding of the anxiety I had given the nature of my appointment. The waiting room was well-decorated and kind of what you'd expect from something at the Biltmore. The only bad part of my experience was actually finding the location. Google Maps had the completely wrong area highlighted on the map. I ended up walking through the whole Biltmore in 108 degree heat with a swollen, painful leg and was not very happy about that. For anyone who might be reading this, there's an exterior entrance on the northwest corner of the complex. You don't need to enter the Biltmore shopping mall itself. read more

Calling Simon Med has been a painful experience they can't even confirm if they have my order. 4 attempts today alone and the company they are using to take their calls can't do their job. I asked for a manager I waited 20 minutes no one ever came on the Line. read more

I went to have a mammogram in December and when I entered the building, almost all of the chairs were full. It was a packed house. Seeing as they are a medical provider, you would think they would observe Covid protocols. The gal at the front desk was completely inept. When I asked if I could sit somewhere else, she sent me back to the mammogram area. I was still completing my paperwork and so when the technician called me back, I took the paperwork with me. She was completely befuddled and bothered because I "wasn't in the system." She asked me how much past my appointment time it was and I told her 40 minutes and she said, "oh that's good, that's our usual." What?!?!? I was completely uncertain if I would even get my results. I hope to never return to this location and if I'd seen they only had 2.5 starts before I went, I probably wouldn't have gone! read more

+ friendly & professional staff + clean & modern facility + options to have open MRI machine (in case of claustrophobia) Overall a good experience. read more

This place, un£u×+ing believable with the bait and switch crap. I made an appointment thankfully far far in advance. And thankfully again was not able to go to my appoinment for an MRI which I was never told at any point in time what the co-pay was going to be. They said when i made the appointment 3 weeks earlier that someone would call me, they never did. Then when i called to cancel i inquired as to what the payment would be... $300+ This week i get a letter from Aetna dated TEN days earlier than what my appointment would have been telling me the procedure would not be covered. I called THIS PLACE after reading the letter and inquired as to the amount of the procedure THIS TIME and was quoted $700+ this time. read more

Scott the X-ray tech was very nice and polite. I was able to get my Xray done right away with no waiting.

On hold over 75 minutes. Finally hung up after I left my call back number. No call back. Big fail.

I loved this place! They were mostly organized but the staff really made this visit great. Pro- the gentleman working the front desk was very helpful and sweet. He talked with emtion and inflection in his voice which seemed genuine. The young blond that helped me lock up my atuff double checked my paperwork to ensure they took any medical conditions into consideration. Con- i faxed over my medical card to prevent possible complication (death) but the didnt file it in my records. Thank goodness the technition double checked. read more

The absolute absolute worst rude staff massive wait times even when you call to cancel or check on an appointment wait times of 20 minutes on the phone absolutely horrendous do not use this place Whatever excuse they give you it's complete nonsense Covid or whatever these are just massive chop shops get them in get them out charge charge they don't give a crap about patience or service absolutely horrendous. I waited online so as to avoid potentially getting a bill for not canceling then after waiting 20 minutes call through to the doctors line to see if I can get a human on the phone got some woman named Tracy on the doctors line told her that I've been holding for 20 minutes on another line just waiting to cancel an appointment she said hold on I'll put you through to scheduling I told her I would not wait she didn't give a darn she said well there's nothing I can do about it put me through to scheduling and like an idiot I'm still sitting here waiting to cancel an appointment absolutely horrendous how the hell to companies in the United States run their business is when they treat customers this way read more

Love this new location. It's really new and clean and everything but its the staff that makes it awesome. Nathan and Kelly at the front are so nice and friendly AND efficient! Joanna does my MRIs and she is the best I have ever had. I always have to have long ones (2+ hours) and she takes great care to make sure I'm comfortable and communicates with me the whole time. You guys are awesome! read more

Quite literally one of the absolute worst medical experiences I've had. I was scheduled at a different Simon Med for an appointment at 3:30 pm, I was called an hour before my appointment and told they were running 4 hours behind and had to move me to this location for my MRI at 6:30 PM. I asked if I would still be able to complete my X-rays at this time and they said yes. Well I get to my appointment and the incredibly rude front desk representative tells me no they cannot preform my X-rays since their tech leaves at 4 pm, and they then also told me they were running 30 mins behind. I sat for an extra hour after being told that. Now my results still have not been read or processed and it has been days since I called and they told me the radiologist was actively reading them. This place is a total mess and I will never be coming back here for any medical imaging. Do yourselves a favor and go anywhere else in the valley for medical imaging. read more

I came in 15 mins prior to my appt and stood quietly waiting to be acknowledged. There was a gentleman chit chatting, which is great, but i stood for over 5 mins. I decided to sit. After 10 mins, the two girls at the front desk commented to each other that i still needed to check in and asked me to come up. I then said good afternoon and let then know i was kind of offended i still hadn't been acknowledged. One girl apologized, but the other immediately rolled her eyes and quietly took my id and gave me paper work. Will not return there read more

The receptionist is extremely incompetent, sitting here for over an hour and a half because she doesn't know how to do her job. Shake my head, so frustrating. read more

I was a patient at DVR for my mammography and bone density for over 10 years. Had some real screw ups and know that they were going under financially. Simon Med must have aligned themselves to take over for DVR. They found my records of the past and took care of me quickly in a clean, modern, professional/friendly setting. I am liking this much better. read more

I SAT THERE FOR AN HOUR AND THEY SKIPPED MY APPOINTMENT FOR SOMEONE WHO WON AN MRI SCAN (NON-MEDICAL ISSUE!)!!! I scheduled my MRI because I am having painful back problems. I have an order from a doctor and pre-approval from my insurance company. I showed up 20 minutes early as requested to fill out the necessary paperwork. I paid my co-pay then sat to wait my turn. While I am waiting, another woman comes in and she asks the people around her what an MRI is like because she WON one and is getting it today. Well, it's now 30 minutes past my scheduled 4pm appointment time and a tech finally comes out and calls HER back before me! WTF? I went up to the desk and asked what was going on because my appointment was at 4pm. They didn't know how to answer. I stood there and waited while they dealt with an extremely rude older woman with her "service dog" (I have worked with dogs and that was NOT a service dog BTW). Finally, the one lady gets on her cell phone and walks away for a second. She then comes back and says she was speaking to the manager and the manager told her that "those scans take priority over other appointments" and also the tech was running 30 minutes behind so I just got skipped. I am not blaming the ladies at the front desk because I know it wasn't their fault and they were apologetic and asked if I wanted to wait another 45 minutes or reschedule. I rescheduled for Monday at 7pm and hope that I don't have more issues when I get there. I usually have a positive experience at this location and am disappointed with what happened today. read more

The most unorganized, rude staff I have ever seen! I have now had to come back 4 times due to their ineptness!! I will NEVER allow another doctor to send me to this place again! read more

Great great great!! I had my MRI done here and everyone was so nice! Kimberly was the best at being able to get my report back to me so quickly and sending it to my PCP!! Great job everyone, keep up the great work! read more

This is by far the worst medical imaging place I have ever been too! I would highly recommend not scheduling at this location. My first time, they took me two hours after my scheduled appointment time. I decided to give them a second chance and brought my daughter here for an MRI. Bad decision as it is one hour and fifteen minutes past our scheduled appointment time and we still have not been called back. I will never be back!!! read more
