My first appointment after a bad fall. Dr Smucker took many necessary radiographs & then examined every single problem joint - of which there also were many, extremely thoroughly. He explained & discussed his evaluations, with recommendations, advice & various options. He wasn't hurried, listened to my misgivings & answered every question. I have unfortunately consulted other orthopods & he is by far the best !
Very pleasant and professional
Dr personally visited with me prior to surgery and told me about the procedure. I found this very helpful.
Dr. Smucker is an excellent doctor, very personal and professional.
Excellent and personable professional care
He is the best, he really cares about his patients. He will always be my doctor.
Great bedside manners
Staff members were receptive and clearly understood the problem.
Explaining my procedure & what my needs are. & let me know what he was talking about. Looking forward to reliving my knee pain for good.
He's the best surgeon and inspires you to get better just by the way he talks to you with honesty and trust.
