I was referred to Dr Smith by my endocrinologist for abnormal lymph nodes in my neck. Being a RN that recently moved to Ohio I was very nervous not knowing many physicians in the area. During my visit with Dr Smith, he had great bedside manner and took the time to explain and answer any questions I had. I never felt rushed and I felt he truly cared about my concerns. I would highly recommend Dr Smith and his staff.

I had surgery twice with Dr. Smith. This man helped me hear! He’s very professional and tells you what to do after surgery. I had otosclerosis in both ears and he did my stapes surgery. Thanks Dr. Smith for giving my hearing back to me.

I had my tonsils removed by Dr. Brescia at the same office as Dr. Smith in Canton. I experienced heavy bleeding after and was connected with Dr. Smith. He dismissed each call seeming more and more annoyed. Eventually I was rushed to the ER where Dr. Smith did not come in for hours and I ended up needing a blood transfusion due to his apathy towards his patients. Thank you, Dr. Smith for leaving me to think I was going to die because you were too busy spending your Memorial Day elsewhere.

Excellent physician. Very intelligent and to the point. I have always been treated with such respect and kindness while in his care.

After visiting with Dr. Smith several times I finally was smart enough to check his reviews online. My experience with him was poor. He's the rudest, most impatient, medical "professional?" I've ever encountered. He doesn't want to deal with his patients at all. He simply wants to diagnose and kick you out the door. I'm not a "hold my hand" type of person but should have been able to ask questions and get a few explanations. He should be a vet; he doesn't like dealing with people.

After reading the reviews I was extremely skeptical, however glad I have chosen Dr. Smith as my ENT. Very compassionate, explains things very well and leaves no questions unanswered. I am very happy with my care and surgical outcomes! I am glad I went and didn't listen to the reviews!

We found him arrogant and dismissive, if not downright rude. Thankfully, his professional and helpful nurse was able to explain how my husband was to follow up after his procedure. He was unable to or refused to answer what I would assume to be standard questions about my husband's condition.

When I was diagnosed with tongue cancer by Dr. Smith he informed me very coldly & handed me names of locate oncologists. There was no additional information other than call & make appointments. Surgery was not an option offered by him. I received a second opinion by the doctors at Cleveland Clinic. All of their doctors were wonderful & had wonderful bedside manners. I did undergo surgery to remove the cancer followed by chemo & radiation treatment. I am happy to be alive today.
