What can I say my experience has been exceptional. From the front desk, Carol who handles the patients and her job amazingly, to Dr. Brian and Dr. Smith they are great doctors very smart, straight forward, and professional. They give their time to the patients and explain things well. I had back surgery with Dr. Smith who is a amazing surgeon. I have to say thank you to Braidy, who has truly helped me with any paperwork I had trouble with. She was always on top of it, and got back to me promptly every time with answers. Even the surgery center they operate out of has the best staff and nurses. They are so good! I had a rough time out of anesthesia, and the nurses I had where truly exceptional. I highly recommend Dr. Smith and their entire practice. Dr. Tyler Smith is an excellent surgeon, I fully trust his opinion and judgement regarding the issue i was having in my neck. Surgery was completed and healing quit well. Dr. Smith and staff cares about their patients , and their follow up on line services, proves this fact.Thank you Dr. Smith!Kind regards,Frank Dr. Tyler Smith gave me my life back! Exercise has always been my passion and a very active life style. When I was literally unable to walk without being in severe pain and had to walk hunched over, unable to stand without pain, unable to do simple movements, I had no choice but to go forward with microdiscectomy surgery. They told me I would still have some pain after surgery, that it takes time for the nerve to regenerate, which it did. After the three week mark it began to get better and better. Today was my post-op and I am pain free, back to my exercise and usual life style. I am so grateful for what Dr. Smith has done for me and his entire staff is wonderful, compassionate and very professional. I know of another person that had a successful surgery with Dr. Smith as well. I highly recommend Dr. Smith!
