Dr Smith was more than excellent throughout my care. He took the time to talk to me pre and post procedure and was very intelligent kind and extremely caring. He also took the time to call me past hours to discuss my pathology results. The fact that he did this so I wouldn't spend another night worrying was incredibly helpful and kind. Dr Smith deserves the highest score possible!

He clearly explained the purpose of the surgery, the risks and likely post-op issues. The whole experience was so smooth, that when the recovery room nurse told me it was time to go home, I argued that I had not had my procedure yet. Further, prior to surgery, I could not even run 0.1 mile without collapsing. Today I ran 2 miles straight.
