Patient Reviews
Oct 16, 2024
Dr. Smith is the very best. I had a inguinal hernia and after watching lots of you tube videos I was skeptical on using mesh as part of the repair process. Dr. Smith took the time to answer all my questions and concerns. He said after this surgery was over I would probably say 'what was the big deal'. Well he was 100% right. Surgery went great, I am having no pain and feel like myself again. His nurse Barb is sweet and understanding. I really appreciate all her help and guidance with this operation.
