The most amazing doc you could ever wish for. Kind, compassionate, trustworthy, patient, not pushy, humorous and I can’t imagine any other orthopedic with better or more knowledge about knee replacements . It is like he established all of the protocol for knee replacement. Had mine done this morning at Andrews-the surgery after 2 years of not wanting it done. It was so easy for me but I did do all of the exercises and prep work prior to going. You may have to wait a little to see him but it is so very worth it. Thank you Dr. Smith

Dr. Brett Smith, M.D., is a board-certified and fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Surgeon specializing in Total Joint and Adult Reconstruction. His Fellowship, which focused on the most challenging cases of total hip and knee arthroplasty, was under his mentor, Dr. Anthony Hedley, a student of the father of hip replacement surgery, Sir John Charnley. Following Fellowship, he had a short stint with a private practice in his California hometown before returning to Arizona, where he joined Dr. Hedley to train Fellows.
He earned his medical degree from MCP-Hahnemann School of Medicine in Philadelphia. He also completed a Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering from the University of California San Diego and a Bachelor of Science in Metallurgical & Materials Engineering from California Polytechnic State University.
When the chance arose to develop a Total Joint Program with the world-famous Dr. James Andrews, Dr. Smith jumped at the opportunity. He joined the team at the Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine in Gulf Breeze, where he has served terms as both the Program’s Medical Director and Chairman of the Institute’s Executive Committee. Dr. Smith’s passion is quality and highly personal care of every patient, treating them as family and focusing on the best possible outcomes, whether from non-surgical treatment or surgical intervention.
