Dr. Rebecca Anne Herman-Smith, DO

Dr. Herman-Smith was dismissive of my symptoms. After multiple visits and her LAUGHING at my concerns, I sought a second opinion. Johns Hopkins quickly diagnosed me as having a serious illness and were shocked at Dr. Herman-Smith's neglect and bedside manner.

The rudest and most arrogant doctor I have encountered. She wants to send you to any specialist friends of her, and put you on any drug that she can for her own financial benefit. She allowed herself out of the blue to call me " a horrible patient".... and followed on top of everything to judge my job performance (she does not know me from anything except visits to her office) verbatim: " I cannot believe you are so precise in your job but so reckless with your health." WHAATT?? Who this miserable arrogant petty unprofessional buffon thinks she is taking to? They need to cancel her license right away. Plus there is a couple of things I will not share here that I might brought to court since they are potentially even more serious..

Changing doctors as Dr. Herman-Smith has given me the wrong diagnosis multiple times now. I feel like I have to be my own doctor because she never gives me the right information. She comes off as arrogant and can’t be humble enough to say “I’m not sure what’s going on”. Could use a dose of humility when dealing with complicated health issues. Doesn’t listen, just rattles off whatever she has quickly come up with. I had something serious going on and she treated me like I was a hypochondriac. Thank God my specialists figured it out before permanent damage was done.

Don’t waste your time on her practice or any other FPC practice. Extremely inconsiderate uncaring rude doctor with rude egotistical backward nurse and front office staff. I was a new patient in her practice (just moved from out of state) with a lot of health issues (spine, knee, feet, chronic asthma, severe chronic fatigue and ovarian Cists), in addition to being the single mother of a special needs child in a stressful relationship. And she and her nurse got all of this out of me the first two visits. And also managing a new job. She without a word dismissed me from her practice when her rude egotistical entitled nurse and staff refused to work with my new insurance change on covering my birth control pills. Essentially the nurse was too busy to return insurance calls, was ignoring them and the front office staff was upset about me being upset about this. So without a word or followup she dismissed me in a cold registered 1-sentence letter.

Two-faced deceitful individuals like her and her staff don’t deserve the privilege of getting yours or your insurance… money to treat you.

I have been impressed with her concern and follow up

I would not recommend this doctor. She prescribed me medication knowing that it was contraindicated with a medical condition that I have. I nearly died. On another occasion, she was upset that I didn't take one of her recommendations and she said to me "well, it's your life. You decide if you want to die or not." When I addressed my concern about her manner with the office, I was told that this is just her personality. RUN from her!!!

Wants to send you to all different doctors for each problem you may have instead of trying to figure it out herself. I received referrals for 5 different doctors, isn't she a doctor? She just wanted to charge for the visit but not have to work for it, not impressed!!!!
