Dr Smith saw my dad the same day for a concerning issue found while at another Dr appointment to which family practice referred us for. He was very thorough, kind, and showed genuine concern for his well being. He covered the necessary needs in a very reasonable amount of time he was friendly and very personable. My dad left that appointment feeling that he was very well taken care of.

Listening to everything I had to say & took every symptom into consideration. He let me know the current steps we were taking & what he would look at next if symptoms continued so there won’t be surprises for me. I definitely appreciated that!
