Rebecca Herman-Smith Do's Online Review Report Card

I love Rebecca Herman-Smith! She is so warm and friendly, and she makes me feel that my needs are important. She is very careful and thorough in her evaluations. She has been a great help to my daughter and husband as well. I can't recommend her highly enough!!

Dr. Herman-Smith downplayed serious medical issues I was having. She seemed disinterested and dismissive. Bad experience!

I have been a patient for a number of years and my experience has gone from marginal to unpleasant and concerning. I am now required to make office appointments more frequently for maintenance meds for know reason other than charging research. The last straw was when she advised me to wait to get a Covid booster ( 7 months after I had been Covid vaccinated) despite me being eligible with no contraindications. She says she “ is a science girl”, but I don’t see it. I put up with her superior and dismissive attitude, but this was the last straw.

Dr. Herman-Smith was not knowledgeable or kind. Gave me bad medical advice. Dismissive. Looking at all her bad reviews online I can see I am not the only one with this experience.

She is a good doctor, even a better person, but her staff is utterly incompetent.

The rudest and most arrogant doctor I have encountered. She wants to send you to any specialist friends of her, and put you on any drug that she can for her own financial benefit. She allowed herself out of the blue to call me " a horrible patient".... and followed on top of everything to judge my job performance (she does not know me from anything except visits to her office) verbatim: " I cannot believe you are so precise in your job but so reckless with your health." WHAATT?? Who this miserable arrogant petty unprofessional buffon thinks she is taking to? They need to cancel her license right away. Plus there is a couple of things I will not share here that I might brought to court since they are potentially even more serious..

Extremely arrogant doctor where the patient has little to say. Enjoys power over her patients ..... She told me I did not have any other option except to follow her..... The last visit she dare to tell me and this is verbatim: " you are such a horrible patient.... Yes YOU ARE ..." assertion that let me with my mouth wide opened!!! She was irritated that I had not been taken one of the drugs she prescribed( it was destroying my guts and had horrible diarrea)... She followed by saying -verbatim " I cannot understand how you can be so precise in your job but so careless with your health matters.. " clearly implying that I was an incompetent in my job when she does not know me from anywhere/anything except my visits to her office. FOR ME THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! My opinion is that she is not qualified to deal with patients and they should cancel her license. She was pushing to prescribe as many drugs as she could for her own profit... SCANDALOUS.. there is a couple of more things ..courts

Changing doctors as Dr. Herman-Smith has given me the wrong diagnosis multiple times now. I feel like I have to be my own doctor because she never gives me the right information. She comes off as arrogant and can’t be humble enough to say “I’m not sure what’s going on”. Could use a dose of humility when dealing with complicated health issues. Doesn’t listen, just rattles off whatever she has quickly come up with. I had something serious going on and she treated me like I was a hypochondriac. Thank God my specialists figured it out before permanent damage was done.

I like this whole practice. She is a very caring and attentive doctor and explains well why she is wanting to prescribe a certain medication or why I need to continue something. Recommend to anyone moving to Frederick.

I found Dr. Herman-Smith to be attentive, patient and professional. Would gladly refer her to anyone looking for quality medical care.
