Amanda Simone, MD
My specialties:
- Internal medicine
Professional interests:
- Virtual visits
I am a board-certified doctor of internal medicine. I offer face-to-face virtual visits for a variety of health services and conditions.
Hometown: Smithtown, New York
Why I became a physician: I truly love helping others. As a high school and college student I volunteered with AmeriCorps and gained a passion for the service of others, while I simultaneously gained a love for science in my academic courses. As a doctor, I am able to combine these two passions.
If I wasn't a doctor, I would be: a gardener or nursery owner because I love being able to help and watch plants grow. I love sharing the beauty of plants with others.
A career challenge that I enjoy: One of my favorite challenges is understanding that each patient is unique and that disease or illness may present very differently from one person to another, based on their individual medical- and personal-circumstances. Finding a personalized treatment plan that works for each individual is both a challenge and a passion of mine.
My personal health goal: To complete my first marathon, up until now I have only done half marathons.
Practice philosophy: I believe that the key to providing great care is developing strong, caring relationships with all my patients. A great patient-doctor relationship is the foundation for great health.
