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.

Top Notch Hematology Experience
I cannot say enough absolutely positive things about Dr. Smith. My initial visit with him was amazing. I figured I would get just a few minutes to rattle off my symptoms, and revive a few lab tests. Dr. Smith was unbelievably attentive to all of my concerns, very thorough in his follow up questions, digging deeper into my family history to uncover possible causes for my IDA, and even took time to connect with me on a personal level. He was so thorough, warm and empathetic in his approach to care. I left after an hour visit with several lab follow ups and knowing I was in the right hands for my care. His RN, Christine, was equally as wonderful! How anyone would rate him less than 5 STARS is a total mystery to me!

Dr. Smith is an amazing doctor!!!! I was referred to him by my PCP, who I value highly. I am.not sure why people left lower than 5 stars, but he deserves 5 stars!!!! He spent over an hour with myself and my husband regarding my condition and all the follow up. He answered every question we had and even offered other questions we didn't think of!!! He is exceptional! His staff, Chrissy was equally exceptional! It made me feel at ease and even, happy!

I am a cancer survivor with various chronic health conditions. When my health began declining my wonderful survivorship oncologist referred me to Dr. Smith. I have never met a man so arrogant and dismissive in my life, and I've met a TON of doctors in all fields of medicine. I left in tears, after being treated like garbage, and we're now looking for another hematologist to refer me to.
