Dr. Julie Simprini King, MD

My experience with Dr. King happened five years ago, but it was by far the worst experience I have ever had with a medical professional and I have never forgotten it. I went to Dr. King for an IUD insertion. The insertion was the most severe pain I have ever experienced. I became nauseous and nearly passed out. In a moment of extreme pain and vulnerability, legs on the stirrups, I expressed frustration that we women have to go through painful and invasive procedures to maintain agency of our bodies. She said "well you chose this". Additionally, I have learned since the procedure that local anesthetic can be used during an IUD insertion, something Dr. King chose not to inform me of for whatever reason. I have heard that Dr. King is good with pregnant women who visit the practice, but her bedside manor for women seeking birth control is atrocious and I would highly recommend young women seeking control of their bodies to see another physician at the practice. There are some phenomenal, kind, and understanding doctors at this practice. Dr. King is not one of them. EDIT: I wrote this a year ago and I still stand by every word. Whenever I read about the experiences that other women have had with IUD insertions, I am filled with a fresh wave of rage at Dr. King. I avoided gyno care for years after that experience because of how traumatic it was, and judging by the response this review has gotten I am not the only one who has experienced that trauma. Dr. King has no business practicing medicine.

I saw Dr King for the first time today. I was extremely pleased with her care and concern.

Dr. King is very friendly. She was the first doctor I saw when I moved her, I won't see anyone else. She is the best!!!

Dr. Julie King was awesome. She was very friendly and gentle, and put me at ease during my visit for my annual check up. I had several questions for her and she took the time to answer them thoroughly. I was very comfortable talking to her about personal health issues even though it was my first appointment with her. Her and her staff were very courteous and I appreciated that they asked me which tests I needed, instead of just doing all of them like previous doctors I've been to. I would highly recommend this doctor.

I went to Dr. Kings office because I took several pregnancy tests and it was positive. She was the only one in the medicial office that had the soonest appointment, so we went with Dr. King. Needless to say this was a mistake!This woman is downright rude, and nasty. She lied and told me my baby was heathy and so big for being 9 weeks pregnant. I had the basic testing, blood work..etc. Then I got a call the next day from Dr. King who said my baby was dead! The same person who told me a day before that everything looked fine. She had the worst bedside manner I have ever seen. After she told me what the tests said, she told me I needed to find another doctor cause I was NOT her patient anymore!!!!!! When I asked why, she just said I DONT deal with fat patients!!!! Never durring the office visit did she call me overweight. I will be finding another doctor and this one should be made to go to some kind of class to teach her how to be kind to people, especially hearing bad news like your child is dead!
