Patient Reviews
Jun 20, 2018
Dr. Smith, his staff, and everyone who he works alongside are top notch in every single way. He has operated on me twice, and on my father once with better than expected results. Very pleased with his care before, during and after all procedures. Quite simply stated, he is the best general surgeon in the St Louis area, in my opinion!
