Dr. Christopher Smith, MD

I guarantee Smith has never heard of this…uneducated, but acts confident and condescending. Summary Show definitions Patients with POTS experience significant gastrointestinal symptoms. Current evidence suggesting that abnormal post-ganglionic sympathetic function could play a role in the pathophysiology of these GI abnormalities. Sympathetic fiber regulate motor and the postprandial GI peptides secretion. The focus of the present proposal is to determine glucose homeostasis, GI motility, and their association with GI and cardiovascular symptoms in POTS patients versus healthy controls. Furthermore, we will determine differences in these outcomes in POTS patients with and without evidence of postganglionic sympathetic fiber neuropathy. As a long-term goal, this study can lead us to understand the pathophysiology of common co-morbidities in patients with POTS to provide new treatment approaches and prevention strategies.

I took my daughter to see Dr. Smith and he is a great doctor. He listened as we explained my daughter symptoms, gave suggestions on things we should do, followed up with us on test results and made us feel more at ease with what was going on with her. my daughter loves when we go see him and his staff.

Dr. Smith is a good doctor. He's kind and patient and focused.. He listens well and asks a lot of questions. He helped diagnose my son, who is 9, with a food sensitivity issue and directed us to another good doctor/allergist, Dr. Chang. Dr. Smith is still involved in my sons treatment and still helping us when we need him. Hope this helps

If I could leave zero stars I would This guy is a jerk ! We trusted this man with our daughters health care and he totally screwed it up and now we just found out that he screwed up our chances of our daughter getting help from U of C for a special test in hopes to end her pain but now it's all gone and we have to start all over . So please never ever see this man for any reason he will only let you down and put your child in harms way .

He did not listen to what we had to say, he looked at my daughters chart and came up with his MISDIAGNOSIS without even doing an examination on her.
