Apr 05, 2024
After losing my primary care doctor because he went to another practice I was on the search for another primary care doctor and I was referred to Dr. Smith and when I tell you excellent doctor she is ...she really pays attention to your symptoms and tries to get to the root of the problem she's very thorough and has excellent bedside manners, I absolutely love her. I have been referring her to everyone I know and if you're on the search for a PCP this is the doctor for you she has her own practice now in Bradenton Florida schedule your appointment today!
