Dr. Smith is one of the best doctors I've ever worked with. My daughter feels comfortable and safe with him. He's always available. He answers all questions. I screwed up on the first couple responses to the survey. I want to make sure that I give Dr. Smith a 10 out of 10. I have no complaints. I would highly recommend him. I'm just grateful that he's my daughter's doctor.
Really appreciated how thorough he was and how he engaged with my daughter through the entire visit.
Very frustrated Appointments are all the same. No real progress. Not likely to continue with the provider.
Dr. Smith was absolutely fantastic, thank you.
Dr Smith is great. Best ADD dr we've seen. He's very thorough and knowledgeable.
