First visits are usually a starting point. X-rays were taken and additional tests are to be done. Exercises were prescribed. Yes I will be seeing Dr. Smith again.

The only difference in the appointment I made at Zocdoc and the actual appointment was the office address. Zocdoc said it would be in Pearland but it was actually in downtown Houston on Main

Quick and easy visit, friendly doctor.
March 27, 2023Maranda H.Verified patient
When you are planning to have a life changing operation, you look for a surgeon with experience. But it is not just the surgeon, you have to have confidence in the entire staff, from the receptionist, radiologists to the physicians assistants. You will find it with Dr. Smith and the staff at Houston Methodist Orthopedic and Sports Medicine.
February 8, 2022Dana M.Verified patient
I was pretty disappointed in my visit with the doctor. He wasn’t listening to my pain or really giving me solutions. It felt like he wanted to get through the exam as quick as possible and be done. I will be finding a new doctor moving forward.
January 6, 2021Claudia C.Verified patient
I love the proficiency of the staff that saw me in Dr. Smith's office show. They were courteous, spend time getting to know the issues and empathize with you, and show compassion and patience. I appreciate the radiologist's kindness and patience. Dr. Smith was very detailed and told me exactly what he was doing and what to expect and I would love to recommend him to anyone who needs ortho consults.
