I would like to share with everyone that is searching for a fabulous, dedicated and truly caring Dr. I highly recommend Dr. Sylvester Smarty. I have been a patient for a few years in the care of Dr. Smarty . Dr. Sylvester Smarty has been a tremendous aid in my life. And has provided me with the tools that I needed, with that it has positively helped me. Along with his insight, and through patiently taking the time to recognize my needs and concerns. I pray that anyone in need and looking for a compassionate and positive outcome, reflect on my review for Dr.Smarty, that I highly recommend.

This man was abrupt, condescending, and egotistical. On her very first appt, he took my 17 yr old daughter into his office and would not allow me to accompany her. Within 10 minutes they allow me to join only to find paramedics leading my child out of his office and into a waiting ambulance at a secret back door. Once at the ER, and upon the hospitals evaluation we were sent home with the discharge instructions of "find a new psychiatrist " This guy should stick to writing papers and publishing articles and kept far away from interacting with patients.

Dr Smarty is treating our 14 year old daughter for general depression. We are so greatful to have found him. He is sweet, kind, low-key and very knowlegeable. We drive from Bay Village to Brecksville to see him monthly. It is always worth her/our time. She is so much happier, healthier and actually enjoys talking to Dr. Smarty. BTW, no child psychiatrist was avaiable to see us for 3 months on the westside. He got us in -- in less than 2 weeks. I highly recommend him!!

This doctor was awful, I waisted my time and money. The lady at the desk was no better. They requested cash (not check) but cash before she would even be seen. We are still waiting for them to file the claim. Every time I call I get lied to, then they give me the run around. I would advise all to stay away from them!

If you need a doctor who will call you back, do not use this one. Never returned one call to me and and does not have my respect.
