I had so many questions about my injuries, yet Dr. Smith patiently listened to each one and gave thoughtful answers to my concerns. He has placed me on a treatment plan which is already bringing relief to my pain. Most physicians today seem rushed and over-booked. This is not the case with Dr. Smith. He is genuinely interested in you as both a patient and a person. Rare in these times. A consummate professional and I am so happy to have found him to help me through my return to health.
