Emory at Peachtree City - Primary Care
3000 Shakerag Hill, Peachtree City, GA 30269About
Jennilyn Simmons is a board-certified family nurse practitioner with Emory Healthcare at Peachtree City – Primary Care. She sees patients 18 years of age and older, offering preventive care as well as treatment for newly diagnosed, episodic and chronic medical conditions.
Simmons knew she wanted to be a nurse from the time she ended up in the hospital following a car accident at age 12. She worked her way through school obtaining associate, bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing. Growing up in rural Tennessee, Simmons was keenly aware of the lack of health care providers in certain areas and chose to become a nurse practitioner to help make health care more accessible to everyone.
Simmons has served as a nurse in many settings, including hospitals, primary care, university, health services and also listed with the VA as a community care provider. Because of her varied professional experiences, she relates well to all types of patients and is well-equipped to support people in all stages of life. Caring for her own family members has also given her insights into the challenges of navigating the health care system. Being a caregiver to her father, who is a disabled veteran, really solidified her passion about serving military veterans as well. Her goal as a provider is to give her patients the same type of care she’d want for her own family, while also assisting veteran care at home through her well-versed knowledge of the benefits and programs available to them. She strives to make health care as easy as possible, being particularly sensitive to patients’ time and the costs involved.
Jennilyn Simmons lives in the area with her husband and two cats. Outside of work, she enjoys tennis and golf.

JenniLynn Simmons is incredibly thorough and caring, she listens to all comcerns
As a 39 year old who hadn't had a PCP in over 20 years, I was naturally nervous about establishing care with someone new. Thankfully, Dr. Simmons was incredible. She was thorough with my medical history review, she answered questions in a manner I was able to understand, and she made recommendations for blood work and some medication adjustments to help me with my symptoms and to find out the root cause of my rapid weight gain. She went above and beyond the general standard of care, and I am confident that I will continue to receive that quality of care as Dr. Simmons' patient. I am highly impressed and very thankful I found her!

Listen with great concern and asked relative questions to resolve my concerns.
Emory, doctors and nurses and care provide provided by them. Both is excellent. I am a patient with Emory for life. I will recommend it to all of my family and all of my friends. There's no hospital greater than Emory thank God for Emory. I do too.
Much interest and concern was shown, however apparently the action needed ( a refill on RX ) was handed over to someone else to follow up on, and then it was dropped. I had to go back to request again the refill .
My provider was excellent; took time to listen and heard me. She was very concerned about my situation and offered solutions. Nurse Simmons is the reason I choose Emory.

This was my second visit with Dr. Simmons. It is because of her and Dr. Brian Lewis that I have chosen to continue my health care with Emory. Not only do these two doctors provide excellent care but their practice and interactions go beyond the circumference of just doctor/ patient relationship to expanding the physical and emotional care of health exponentially.
Such a warm welcoming office and the care is exceptional, I do recommend them to my friends

Overall, a great experience.
PA Simmons is very good. She makes you feel comfortable and takes time with you. Most excellent.

AWESOME
NP Simmons is great and displays person centered attentiveness with my medical concerns/ needs as a patient
The experience was excellent. I appreciate it very much.
Nurse practitioner Simmons thoroughly reviewed my history and was attentive to me concerns and problems. She was caring and personable.
All went well!
I know the PA was very busy and my primary purpose was paperwork but it's hard to feel cared for when there's no eye contact and brief covets but no actual discussion of what's being filled out. Despite that, incredibly nice and would probably consider seeing this provider again for something else.
Jennilyn is nice, but not very warm nor engaging. She didn't seem to care to get to know me at all. She didn't ask any personal or family questions.
She was very, very good and quick (a good thing for me)
Excellent care giver!!!
Good
