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.

AWESOME DOCTOR
Dr. Fox-Smith was always great with me. Office staff not so much but no matter where DFS practiced, I would follow.

Dr. Fox Smith is wonderful. Staff not so much.
I was a patient of DFS for over 20 years. We had a very good rapport! I do agree with negative comments made about her staff though; very sloppy work! The Dr is worth it. The staff just makes you work for your appt. :(

Dr. Fox-Smith is very sharp - nothing gets by her. But she also has a wonderful bedside manner. I never felt rushed or dismissed. Can't recommend her enough!

I have not complaints against Dr Fox-Smith, she is the best doctor that I have had in a long time. But I do have a complaint against the office staff. When they schedule future appointments, they have individuals that don't seem to be focused. Wrong times, doctors etc. Also when need script, my pharmacy says they don't get back to him. I need my thyroid meds.

The doctor's staff was uninformative. Her practice was booked out for 6 months yet, listed as accepting new patients. Full disclosure by her staff would have been appreciated.

Terrible staff. Booked my appt 3 months in advance. Called the morning of to confirm and was told Dr. wasn't in and next appt. wasn't available until 4 mons away. Their mistake and they refused to make it right. Was told they called me to cancel. They did leave a voicemail 2 months before my appt, but didn't tell me why calling or give caller's name. I returned the call within 30 mins of the vm and the staff indicated they didn't know why I was called and that it must have been in error.
