I developed a love of medicine as a paramedic and respiratory therapist, and medical school gave me the knowledge and skills to better care for those around me. Being able to help people with different problems continues to be one of the greatest joys of being a family doctor. Besides helping patients with their health problems, I have learned valuable lessons and insights from my patients.

    Dr. Smith was friendly and informative about my sinus situation.

  • July 11, 2025

    The physician was very attentive and helpful with my issue. This included patience listening to the background details (which helped a lot in terms of knowing the context of the current symptoms within the history). Also advising on some other areas not specifically there for. Really the visit and kindness was amazing!! Thank you!!
