How likely are you to recommend Dr. Smith?
I recently had my right hip replaced via the anterior approach method by Dr Smith. I can’t say enough about Dr Smith or recommend him any higher. It’s been seven weeks since my surgery and my hip is pain free and the healing process is ahead of schedule. Dr Smith will be replacing my left hip in February. We’re truly lucky to have such a fine orthopedic surgeon in our area. A big thanks to Dr Smith and his staff!
