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.

The BEST Dr my son has ever seen!!
Dr. Dowdell-Smith has been seeing my son for 20 months now. Let me start by saying when we came to her we were terrified, didn't know what was going on with my son, and desperate! At the 1st visit she instantly gained mine & my sons trust! Her gentle touch and patience with my son helped him relax and always be comfortable at every appt! She quickly had an MRI w/ contrast and sleep/awake study done and diagnosed him. It's been a tough road with him tolerating seizure meds and she has never given up! She always responds quickly on My Chart if I have ANY questions. Her assistant Mandy is also amazing! They make a great team and my son actually gets excited before visits to see them! I cannot say enough good things about Dr Dowdell-Smith and Ms Mandy! I feel like they have become family! The only issue I have ever had at this practice is scheduling isn't fun at all! There is never afternoon appts available which is hard for our family, but I've delt with it bc Dr Dowdell is worth it!

Cicely Dowdell-Smith, MD, is horrible and does not care for her patience. She cares about your money. She will not listen to parents, school advisors or other doctors when it comes to the health of her patience. Please do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Worst Doctor I’ve ever met.
I took my son to see Dr. Dowdell-Smith after he had seizure like activity. The office was not friendly and the appointment was rushed. She did recommend he get an EEG and Brain MRI, which we did in Atlanta. A few weeks later, we moved out of state and my son had more seizures. I called her office and requested he be put on daily meds as she was still his neurologist. (We hadn’t even been in our house more than a couple days at that point) She agreed that be needed to be put on medicine but refused to prescribe it to him stating that I should find a neurologist local in the next few days that can help me. I have NEVER had a doctor speak to me in such a rude manner. My son was still her patient and she refused to treat him. Horrible doctor! Find anyone else.

Dr. Dowdell-Smith treated my daughter for headaches in 2013. She was caring and compassionate and treated my daughter as an individual, not just as another patient.
