Dr. David Smith, MD

He was the most condescending, arrogant, overbearing physician I’ve ever had the misfortune of seeing. I could hear him speaking about my case to someone I had not authorized loudly enough I could here in the exam room. He refused to help me get insurance coverage for treatment because he couldn’t figure out their system. This was Blue Cross/Blue Shield—the most common insurance in the state. I think he needs to retire in disgrace.

Please, please do not see this man! Never have I encountered a more close-minded, condescending and arrogant physician. Twice in my 10 min. conversation was informed that he is THE expert in the state in his field. Not even remotely be true. Ego is matched only by his inability to listen or show a shred of compassion. As first reviewer stated, his mind is made up bef you arrive. I was treated in a very similar fashion as she. There are other more qualified docs in this area that WILL help.

He does NOT listen to anything you say and has his mind made up in two seconds. He told me I was a “bored housewife” and labeled me having psychosis from a 10 min encounter. I was later found to have several infections and determined to have an autoimmune disease and found not to be psychotic by a psychiatrist and numerous specialists that followed him. He said my blood work was fine in a brief phone conversation and I requested my results and saw I had stage 2 kidney disease additionally.

I spent three days in the hospital with high fever of Unknown Origin. This position could not tell me anything. Laughed at everything I had to say. Would not recommend this physician to anyone. He even told me not to take anything for fever unless it got above 105. I think by then it might be a little too late!
