Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Smith is personable and well qualified. He takes the time to answer questions.

Ignorant
Should have his license revoked. He should do the world a favor and stick to playing golf and leave everyone alone.

He triple booked his schedule and I believe that he knowledgeable and caring staff who are overworked and sometimes miss the essential components of patient treatment. I do not recommend going to Georgia Skin & Cancer if you do decide to go prepared to wait anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half to be seen.

Great Doctor and Staff
I have been a patient of DrSmith for quite a few years. He and his staff do great work and are very professional. Always file insurance and look over any concerns.

Dr. Smith spent maybe one minute doing a full body skin check. So disappointing.

Smith and Hickey hurt me and solved nothing!
I went to him first. Instead of doing a biopsy, he scraped away my skin for a sample. Each spot became infected. He gave no antibiotics. Hickey froze skin growths on me. I personally had to pay for each one treated. She said my insurance would not. LIE! I called my insurance and they only required a pre-auth. All my time and money for NOTHING! I asked for my money back and they refuse. My experience and now my opinion of them is to find other providers who use current procedures. They wanted me to actually come into their office and talk about it all with them one more time. That’s just more of my time and money. How dumb do you think I am? I have an opinion of you though!

After normally seeing a female PA, my girlfriend saw Dr. Smith today. He walked into the exam room as she was undressing, without knocking, then proceeded to start taking her pants off of her without asking and said "It's not every day the doctor helps you get undressed, is it?". He also brought a male medical student into the exam room with him without asking her if she was comfortable with that. On top of that, she said he barely looked her over (she was there for a skin cancer check). This is completely inappropriate behavior for anyone, much less a doctor. Could not recommend this place less.
