Everything went perfect, right from the initial consultation, through pre-op and the surgical procedure itself, to the follow up consultation one week later. Everyone I came in contact with performed at 100%, and the surgery by Dr. Smith went so well that I had no need for pain medication afterwards. In fact, the surgery on my neck was done so well, that I had no one even ask me what had happened to my neck. I cannot say enough about the skills, the manner in which he explains things, and how easy he is to talk to. He really... read more

Had major surgery in colon and other locations. Dr Smith literally call my son in the operating room to update on changes taking place. He also gave me his cell phone number on the first visit with permission to call him any time for questions etc. Outstanding care from Dr. Smith.

Dr. Smith saved my life. I had a gastric perforation and became extremely septic and Dr. Smith performed the surgery on me. I've read testimonies of others who have been through the same thing as myself, most all had to spend months in the hospital post surgery. I feel blessed and lucky, because after the surgery and being in a coma for 16 days, I felt good enough and strong enough to go home after a week! Dr. Smith has followed up with me to ensure my recovery is going well. 10 stars!!!

Slow in getting back with test results. Showed no urgency or willingness to find solution. Terrible experience.

After enduring discomfort and having many tests for over a year, I was taken by ambulance to the hospital in extreme upper chest pain. Heart ruled out as problem. All tests were inconclusive. Suspected bad Gall Bladder. Dr. Smith performed major surgery and removed diseased Gall Bladder. Dr. said it was the worst one he had seen in many years. Very satisfied with Dr. Smith and St. Luke's East Hospital.

Horrible, terribel experience. Surgery was scheduled by his Professional Scheduler and then changed it to 3 weeks later because she was apparently confused. On the date of surgery, again 3 weeks after we were originally told it woudl take place, Doctor showed up 55 minutes late and said he was stuck in traffic. I called the office at 35 past start time and nobody knew where he was. We were told by his office thast he did not have a previous surgery. Follow up was another mess. We left!

In an 8-month period, I had visited over 35 doctors with extreme pain that no one could diagnose. By the time I presented to the Centerpoint ER, I was ready to give up hope that anyone would find what was wrong. I begged Dr. Smith to find the source of my pain. He performed surgery on me, and found that my gallbladder was quadrupled in size and ready to rupture. I also had pelvic adhesions. Within 2 days, I was back to myself and walking upright again. He truly saved my life.
