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.

I would give 0 stars honestly. I was going to transfer here originally because both my mother and grandma WENT to him. Key word here WENT. Receptionists are beyond unprofessional, especially Crystal. There was numerous incidents where Crystal would schedule my grandmother, and when we arrive on our scheduled appointment, she would ALWAYS tell her that my grandmother was not scheduled and this last time she literally called my grandmother a liar. Of course, I called Dr. Schmit to complain about Crystal and how she treated one of his long term patients, and he asked what exactly what happened and as I told him what happened he would shut me up because he didn't want to hear it. What kind of Doctor doesn't want to know how their receptionists are treating their patients when Crystal has done this to my grandmother and other patients OFTEN. When I finally got my grandma to get an appointment to see the doctor THROUGH the doctor himself NOT THE RECEPTIONISTS, the moment he saw her he tried

Dr Schmidt is AMAZING!! We just moved here from Texas and I took my mom to see him. She has a very complicated medical history. He was patient, thorough, listens and has an awesome sense of humor. Most times it is all about how many people you can see in a day, moving you in and out. He is not like that at all. He is competent and extremely personable. I see some of the reviews complain about the time in the waiting room. If you wait long, its because he is taking his time with a patient.

Dr. Schmidt is just all around amazing. Very accurate with his diagnosis and very charming. He’s easy to talk to, very clear and super comforting. Both me and my wife are his patients. Can’t thank him enough for his curiosity and vocation. His keen senses and training saved my wife from a potentially fatal condition. I’m forever grateful.
