Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

That doctor is a creep. He doesn't listen at all. He was rude from the moment he walked in the exam room. I went there because of pain in my left foot and knee from recent treatment from chemo therapy for breast cancer. I told him from the start I do not want pain medication. I want you to suggest something that can be done which does not involve pills. He told me to see a therapist most pain can be solved with cognitive therapy. Everytime I tried to ask a question he shut me down. He didn't even exam my foot or knee. I am calling my insurance company and tell them not to pay. Even if you are dying of agony You don't go to him. A witch doctor would of done a better job.

I have been with Dr. Smith for over 15 years. I highly recommend him. He is fair but just don't expect him to be a push over. With today's regulations you have to be willing to follow the rules.

Dr. Gerry Smith is the best pain management doctor I had come encounter with. From the time I entered his practice there has not been a time they have not gone above and beyond to make sure that my needs were taken care of. He has wonderful bedside manner. He checked records and make sure that he does throw checks to make sure that you get the best care. He has a wonderful report myself and family and I would recommend him to anyone that needed his services.
