Really happy with the entire visit - from the front desk, to the nurse, to the doctor and then check out. Everyone was great! This office has a small, personal feel which is a nice change from some of the mega practices I've visited over the years. Dr. Smith is my new doc now!
Dr. Smith was very kind and understanding. She explained everything that needed to be done and had a conversation about procedures versus telling me what everything was.

She made me feel very comfortable asking questions, and she provided informative answers to my questions. Even going to give a second opinion on tests from previous doctor. I absolutely plan to see her as needed in the future.
She's not in suite 215 anymore.
The doctor was very friendly and explained procedures very well. She ordered a couple of procedures that I am concerned about and will be following up with them during this month.
I really appreciate her personal approach and the fact that she listens to my concerns! I drive clear across town to see her and it is worth the drive!
Verified patient
Very professional and friendly staff. I drive from New Braunfels just to come to their office. Very pleased with everything and highly recommend their team.

Very good very nice and informative
Verified patient
The visit was fine. It was nice that she was apologetic about the wait time. She didn't breeze into the room like so many other doctors, saying nothing of the fact they are very late. She answered my questions and was receptive to my concerns. She was very knowledgable about all the items we discussed.
I love Dr. Smith! She was the only one who sent me to get labs on my recurrent miscarriages, and was diagnosed with a defect that can possibly be treated with a supplement
I love Dr. Smith. She & her staff are excellent.
