I was in severe pain with my neck and shoulders and had physical therapy off and on for those two years. Finally I had an mri and an appointment with Dr. Smith and found out that I needed surgery immediately and had it in 2 days. I t was iffy how much improvement I would have and thanks to my Dr. Smith I can function so much better and can still work full time and sleep so much better. I know that Dr. is an excellent Dr. and I highly recommend him to everyone. Dr. Stephen saved my life and I am grateful.

Dr. Smith insulted my intelligence and was very short and rude. He was the first of many opinions and was the only one out of them all that recommended a very extreme surgery as my " only option". He was very wrong in his diagnosis. Very. Thank goodness I was smart enough to choose someone else!

Large ego, made very unprofessional immature remarks during visit. Be advised. Do your research on him as his reputation is dwindling.
