I was very scared going in there. I’ve never worked with Dr. Smith before So and I think because of my age I was even more nervous, which was unusual for me, but he was very caring and very concerned with everything that I felt and that was very relaxing for me so to say because it was hard for me to relax, but he was very good and I am sure he knows exactly what he was doing, but I had no problems about any of it. He did a good job and hopefully it will help with my problem, I have no doubt that it will thank you Dr. Smith. I just hope I did not make him feel uncomfortable.
