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.

She is an amazing Doctor and person. I have highly recommended her and her many times.

She is incompetent and rude! She was unable to read my test results correctly. I had my tests reviewed by several other doctors and then I questioned her and she could not answer.

Tried to make an appt, was told she only sees for MS. S this clears things up. Had this been clearly indicated on the website, I wouldn't have spent 15 minutes on hold. Or maybe I just didn't see this.

I have been seeing both Dr. Smith and Rebecca Rahn since moving to South Carolina 7 years ago. Both of them are caring and extremely knowledgeable. I haven't had many changes with my MS since seeing them. I was diagnosed in 1992. I can still walk, and I attribute that to the MS drugs that I have been fortunate enough to be able to get. While I don't seem to have clear cut exacerbations anymore, my fatigue is steadily getting worse. Dr. Smith monitors my MRI's to make sure that my current therapy is still working. We've found that after about 5 years or so that my body builds up an immunity to the current MS drug and we try another.

Took almost 7 years past being told by her I was faking for them to read the tests I've already taken and see that I test positive for something called MOG-AD. That doctor refusing to believe me and putting in my file she didn't believe me has made every diagnosis since almost impossible, kept me for getting treated not only from MOG, but other things as well, and made the treatments I have gotten incorrect. And the best part, now that I've been diagnosed, my only option locally is to go she her again. Just because I didn't fit her perfect little basket and she was uninformed about her supposed specialty
