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.

My 94 year old mother in law was scheduled for an appointment today in Knox 10/20/23. I was unable to take her as I am sick. I arranged for another family member to drive her. That person drove almost 2 hours one way to get her. Once at the appointment she was turned away due to not having her photo ID. In my opinion there could have been a few options, #1, leave her there and offer her son to go home and get the ID, #2, call her family doctor and have them fax a copy, or #3, just see her and offer to let her pay for visit out of pocket until ID verified. Instead she was turned away and rescheduled for December! She has a hard time going out in the winter as she's 94 and unsteady. This treatment is not inline with how Dr. Smith advertises himself .

Spent very little time with me explaining the orthotics. And yelled instructions on how much to wear them across the waiting room, the sign in counter and in take area. I found that to be rude and unprofessional.
