Could not have been more friendly, courteous, expedient and kind. Encouraging to my sister, the patient , in mild dementia. Immediately at ease. Will be happy to refer others to Dr. David Smith and his staff.

Physician was uninterested in our questions, and we received answers such as 'it looks like it's supposed to'. When we asked about putting additional weight on the leg, 'you can ask your PT about that'. Asking about driving 'you'll have to figure that out for yourself'. Also, the orders sent to PT to help guide them with future sessions contained no information or guidance.

My experience with Wellstar was at North Fulton Hospital where I could not have asked for a more compassionate, caring and professional staff. Dr. David Smith was the trauma surgeon who repaired my broken hip and he was excellent. In my follow up visit, he explained everything, showed me before, and after images of my hip, and I also appreciated the radiology tech and the nurse. I would rate my care at the Wellstar facility with a 10.

Dr. Smith seemed disinterested in my injury. He commented that wearing the boot to his office was overkill for my foot injury. The staff, radiologist, and nursing personnel were very pleasant and helpful.

I am so pleased with the care I got from Dr. Smith. He is loving, kind, and he really assured me about using my arm again. And I just thank God for him that he was able to assist me. Very painful and hurts a lot, but for the most part, I'm just so thankful for him. He explained exactly what he was going to do. I trust him, and I would recommend him to anybody who has broken something on their body, that he can possibly repair it. I'm so pleased with his service, and I just thank God for him.

Dr. David Smith explained the operation perfectly to me before. He quieted all my fears and worries I had about the surgery. On the post-op visit, he answered all of our questions. I brought a friend in with me so that she could help ask questions, and he answered our questions fully, simply, thoroughly, didn't use professional jargon that I couldn't understand. He broke it down in terms we could both understand. And we just really appreciated him. And I just like him as a person, as a surgeon. I would very much trust him to do any further procedures.
