“Excellent care by Dr. Simic and staff at Thousand Oaks location!
My story....last September I tore ligament in wrist and when researching orthopedic doctor. I performed further investigation on SCOI website and was immediately impressed with selection of doctors, specialties, and credentials. This is where I found Dr. Simic and decided to give him a try and glad I did. Dr. Simic is an excellent surgeon. He consulted with me on every step of the long process of repairing my hand. Furthermore his staff is highly confident, professional, and personable making every visit as pleasant as can be. As a working professional in technology managing my own team, I always try to recognize great work when I see it. I have to to note the exceptional performance of Samantha (Sam), Taylor Johnston (casting), Ibette and Alma in occupational therapy. Sam was always on top of scheduling my appointments and getting needed authorizations timely, Taylor was awesome in casting, having several cast changes and seeing her work first hand she is highly skilled and incredibly hard worker. Very personable making each experience enjoyable for not only me but many others. Ibette and Alma who perform the delicate work of rehabbing my hand have the proper balance of strength, skill, patience, and motivation. I look forward to continuing my therapy to achieve greater results.
Thank you all for the great care and excellent results I have achieved thus far. Superb team effort by all!”

“He is a fantastic surgeon and a genuine person as well. He rebuilt my severely injured shoulder, sustained when playing basketball. He was always compassionately professional and explained everything thoroughly at every visit. I am near the end of my recovery and can't thank him enough for returning normalcy to my everyday life. I would give him a "10" if the rating scale allowed it.”

“I am a court reporter so that a broken finger can be devastating. Dr. Simic got me back to work both times quickly by providing the care I needed. I had spoken with other hand specialists before deciding on Dr. Simic, and they told me my career was over. I appreciated Dr. Simic's skill and positive outlook.”
– Rose H.
“I have used 4-5 different SCOI surgeons for just as many surgeries! If that didn’t answer your question, let me say that I refer them to everyone!”
– Donna G.
“Dr. Simic and his staff have helped me through some issues including one hand surgery. My experiences have been exceptional. A very caring team indeed. No problems have ever arisen from Dr. Simic's hand surgery. The wound healed correctly, and the pain is long gone. This is typical of my experiences at SCOI, I've been a patient since 1987. Thank You.”
– Terry H.

“Dr. Simic is an amazing surgeon. He repaired my arm ten years ago. He doesn't know what to do for my left arm right now, so he has referred me to Dr. Bahk.”

– Christina G.
“My appointment was on time and Dr. Simic and his assistant Samantha couldn't have been more professional. The front office staff was very nice and my wait time was maybe 10 minutes once I was escorted into the treatment room. More importantly, I received a follow up phone call to find out how I was doing.”
– Patte G.
