Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wonderful Doctor
I had a sore shoulder and Dr Smith determined that it was Calcification Tendonitis. He was able to give me a Cortisone shot to stop the pain, but he also explained that this was a temporary solution and that I might need to have the calcium deposit removed. He was warm and friendly and explained everything in detail to me. I really couldn’t have expected a better experience. I can’t recommend him enough.

Knee surgery
Dr Smith saw me right away, was great to talk to, understood my concerns, completed a minor knee surgery with good results and gave great follow-up care. I would certainly recommend him to anyone suffering from knee pain or injury.

so far so good
A doctor referred me to another doctor, who referred me to Dr. Andrew Smith. I’ve had a couple consultations with him. I appreciate how straightforward he is. Sounds like I’m on the list for surgery so we’ll see how that goes.

Excellent!
I have been a patient of Dr. Smith’s for many, many years. I have always known him to be professional and straightforward. He is kind, patient and very knowledgeable. He is respectful and listens without rushing you or cutting into your thoughts. I have recommended him to several people and will continue to do so.

Staffing is everything
Very impressed with the Dr and staff at this office. They handle a very high volume of patient traffic, phone calls, and paperwork, yet the staff handle it for the most part flawlessly! Seems like they take care of their staff and that’s coming from a hospital worker…. Again very impressed!

Avoid, go to a specialist
I went to Dr Smith with a torn ACL. He pressured me into going with an ACL reconstruction, performed by him, not mentioning that there are alternatives out there with long histories of success that work well, but which he didn't do. I did my own research, and was fortunate enough to find a specialist at the HSS who explained that my ACL was torn right off the bone (clearly noted on the radiology report), and that he could reattach it, speeding up my recovery time from what would otherwise have been 9-12 months to 3-6. I went with the specialist and was back to sports within 3, and had a full recovery by 6. I believe Dr smith didn't mention the other techniques because if I found out about them, then I would go with them, and he wouldn't make the money off of doing surgery on me. I believe that Dr Smith would have caused me to undergo a much more invasive, painful and debilitating surgery with no benefit to me, which would have taken many months more to recover from, in order to profit.
