Dr Smith cares, is through, respects my intelligence and my sensibilities regarding health care. She is kind and attentive. I never have to wonder when she will get back to me because she always does in a timely manner. I feel very fortunate to have found her.

I did not know about the parking garages ticket policy as I did not get it validated and was not asked about it. So when I was leaving I had to try to figure out how to pay for parking and even the lady behind me came up to help process the visaCard and nothing to show I paid for it.. I know it's only $10.00 as I found out later on my visa statement. Just a little sign would have been great.

Dr. Smith is always thoughtful, intelligent and a great listener. She always ends by asking, " Is there anything else you wanted to ask me?'. This is a very helpful reminder.

Dr. Smith is knowledgeable about ehlers danlos syndrome and hypermobility. I don't have to explain it to her every time I come in. I really love that about her. She has also been really understanding about my transition starting hrt and top surgery. Not to mention how helpful she's been in figuring out my FMLA paperwork.

The medical assistant who took my weight and my vitals and recorded the reason for the visit was AMAZING. She was so incredibly kind, caring, helpful and sensitive. I told her how I had missed my bus stop and had to a mile to the bldg, & she was so empathetic and brought me 2 cups of water. She was an absolute Angel. She deserves so much praise.

Everyone was so helpful. We were ruling out a potentially dangerous option. I got several calls from staff in office, was worked right in, even though dr smith was very busy that day. Then sent for a test. I was amazed

The provider is overbooked. Every time I've seen her she's been rushed. I'm sure she's a great doctor if she just had the time to spend with her patients.

Dr. Smith was thoughtful and attentive. Thank you! (As was the nurse.) I have a high deductible insurance plan and this routine preventive visit was charged at $500. I am waiting to hear back from their billing specialist about more appropriately coding the visit.

Dr Smith is very thorough and helpful. The time I have is always a bit short, so I need to schedule appts more often so we can keep up, especially when urgent matters come along, we need to be caught up on everything else.
