FREDERICK P. SMITH

Dr. Smith is the most knowledgeable, thorough, and caring doctor I have ever had. He is up to date on the latest research. He successfully treated me for aggressive breast cancer with chemotherapy and biologics, advising surgery and radiation. His very kind manner and vast knowledge made me trust in him.

I absolutely recommend Dr. Smith! I feel very fortunate to have a strong team of doctors caring for my cancer treatment. Dr. Smith is always warm and welcoming as well as patient and respectful as we tried to work through "wrapping our heads around" my recovery. He didn't rush and was very respectful of my issues. I am grateful to have met him and look forward to working through my treatment with him. The technician was also very professional and comforting. Thanks Dr. Smith.

I first met Dr. Smith over 25 years ago when I was in my bed at Sibley Hospital waiting for the results of my bone scan. The Inspector General's Office of my agency was investigating the negligent care I received overseas and my surgeon told me that in my case all we could do was pray. Dr. Smith introduced himself, looked me in the eye and told me that he knew my story, understood how I felt, but that my prognosis was good and that I would be okay. He taught me not to panic and to proceed step by step, doing the necessary tests, evaluating the results, and choosing the best treatment based on the information available. When I was diagnosed for breast cancer for the second time seven years ago, I was relieved to know that Dr. Smith would be there for me again. He is an experienced clinician and researcher. He's a man of few words, but he is a compassionate and caring human being whose patients can be assured they will get the best care currently possible.

They are wonderful doctors and awesome nurses and staff! My experience is with Drs. Smith and Barr; they know their medicine and are very compassionate. Everybody in town knows and respects this highly talented group. The nurses and staff are detailed, caring and effective. Pressing button 13 on the elevator is sobering, but knowing the best care available awaits is comforting.

Dr. Smith has been treating me since l995 and he has made my life better ever since.

Dr Smith is truly outstanding. His treatment of my wife’s aftercare is unparalleled—— a professional’s Professional! I give him my highest commendation——Judge Sullivan

Dr. Smith is undoubtedly the best physician I have ever seen. He is warm, excellent eye contact, listening carefully to questions, giving clear answers, unhurried, reassuring. Over the years since 1988 I have seen him several times. I have always felt there was nothing standing between him and me for the entire consultation.

Dr. Smith remains vigilant on the current proven treatments available to me which shrinks the tumors in my body. I was already scheduled to have breast surgery by another doctor but my friend who is on a eight year remission insisted I see Dr. Magnant. Dr. Magnant a breast surgeon told me that she talked to Dr. Smith who thinks I might not need surgery. I am blessed that I have the best doctor's who remains vigilant on the most proven treatments!

Kind, compassionate, and caring. Wonderful staff.

Dr. Smith has been excellent at communicating and explaining to me my options. I have been able to be involved in my care throughout the process. He is clear that he cares about his patients. He was the right doctor for me given my confusion after my diagnosis and surgery.
