Answered all my questions very politely. Reminded me I could get a shot in my left knee which I had totally forgotten about that option. Very encouraging about my right knee. Relieved my anxiety concerning my surgical knee.

Dr Smith was kind, compassionate, and very knowledgeable when it came to options for my injury and how to proceed with treatment.

He now resides in Findlay with his wife, Brittany, and four daughters.
