Dr. Smith is wonderful. He takes the time to listen and come up with a treatment plan that will work best for you. He always reviews your chart prior to first visit so he prepared to discuss your issues. I like that he is both a chiropractor and physical therapist. Thank you!

Dr. Smith has not only treated the pain in my neck and ear but has also been decent enough to ask about my other issues and recommend the right doctor. He was the one who sent me to a specialist who dealt with my knee pain, and yesterday he asked about the psychedelic lights that have become an issue in my eyes. He wants me to see a doctor because he wants to rule out possible strokes and found me the name of a new doctor. My general practitioner heard about the lights and did nothing. Dr. Smith is not a do nothing doctor. He's excellent.

Disclosures

William D. Smith, DC reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
