"Dr. Smith is the kindest most caring surgeon I have ever come across at a military hospital or civillian hospital for that matter. From the beginning he made me feel very comfortable, he listened to me, and he also explained in detail the RNY surgery. On the surgery date, he checked on me before the surgery, and then came in to check on me every day I was in the hospital recovering. At my follow up apointments he is so encouraging. I feel so blessed to have had Dr. Smith as my surgeon. "
