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.

I would never recommend this doctor, go anywhere else. I worked in the medical field for over 36 years and have not seen a more uncaring, lazy, incompetent physician. Please for your own health care avoid this guy.

Dr Smith is extremely competent and caring. My experience is if you have a genuine occupational injury, he will do everything possible to help you. The staff at his office has always been professional and courteous. Although I was initially concerned when my personal doctor referred me outside their office, it really was the best decision. Dealing with a workplace injury, I have learned a doctor that has this experience is critical dealing with an L & I injury claim. Dr. Smith is the best there

This doctor gets paid by the government to help them close out your claims even though you continue to have medical issues and are physically restricted.
