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.

Correct your website, this guy is NOT accepting new patients. NONE of these so called "Primary Care" physicians accept new patients because what they "Primarily Care" about is their carefully curated work loads so that they never work more than 8 hours a day or miss a golf outing. Scheduled appointment on their website only to have it canceled a week before with a brusque message from a surly scheduler informing me I can take a hike. I'm so sick of these gatekeepers to the pharmaceutical industry.

I had an urgent problem with my left knee/leg/ankle. I needed to get Dr. Smith's evaluation and possible suggestions as to seeing a specialist. The staff was extremely accommodating and worked me in the same day. Dr. Smith saw me, examined me, and provided the names of two specialists that he recommended. As always (and I have been going to him for several years) he listened patiently before any recommendations. I trust him completely. Thank you once again.

Dr. Smith is very patient driven and makes sincere efforts to engage with patients on a personal level. He is respectful and considerate of my Mom's hearing and speech challenges, and always includes her in our dialogue about her care. His staff is courteous, professional, and incredibly responsive to our and our home health company's calls, always calling back within a few hours, often within a few minutes. I would definitely recommend Dr. Smith and his staff of dedicated support personnel.

My experience with Dr. Smith and his office has been very positive. He takes time and is easy to talk to. I have a lot of confidence in him. I have been able to see him same day if I needed to. I like the online website with my medical records and ease of scheduling appointments. The office is very well run.

Dr. Smith has been our primary doctor for almost 5 years and we have been very happy to be his patient; great "no rush in and out" office visits, great bedside manner and one of the greatest things he will pick up his phone to keep in touch until your medical issue has been taken care of. Office Staff very pleasant and helpful.

I am legal guardian for a special needs adult (Bubba) who has high anxiety for medical appointments. Dr Smith and his staff are always flexible and understanding. We so appreciate their kindness. With each visit, Bubba becomes more comfortable with the nurses and doctors and we see a definite improvement in his physical health. Highly recommend this doctor and staff.
