I have been to several RA doctors & I will have to say Dr.Smitherman took the time to talk to me about my issues. He seemed concerned and wanted to get to the bottom of things. We drive 2 hours one way to see him & he is well worth it. Even recommended him to a friend of mine that will be scheduling an appointment soon with him.
