His most important work was the introduction of medical visual documentation.

He documented complex medical procedures, new surgeries, births, and even moments of death. He portrayed leading Slovenian medical experts. He recorded the arrival of their child into the new world and the first hug for thousands of mothers. In addition to his professional activity, he was continuously engaged in authorial, creative exhibition photography. Exhibition and experimental photography and photographic graphic art represent Simončič’s highest creative peak.
