This was my first appointment with Dr. Smith and he was absolutely fantastic. I’m so grateful for how he took the time to look over my past visits and educated and informed me on things that I wasn’t told prior as well as listening and acknowledging my concerns. He also took his time doing the appointment and made a health game plan for future appointments.

Dr Smith is so pleasant and easy to talk to. He delivered results of testing, suggested a higher dose statin and took care of ordering through mail order pharmacy. He even gently delivered the ‘worst’ of test results.
