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 pediatrician!
I have three crazy boys and Dr Nesmith can handle all of them in his exam room without a sweat. I’ve struggle before with other pediatricians making me feel embarrassed and judged but Dr Nesmith is very encouraging. He is knowledgeable in treating mental health issues, adhd and autism even though he’s a general pediatrician. I am so glad I found him.

Excellent Doctor
My daughter has been a patient of his from the first day he opened his office. My daughter has difficult medical conditions. I loved the fact he would always listen to me about her with no judgment he would also tell his followers (training dr) to always listen to the mothers they know the kid the best. He was not ever afraid of telling me I dont know what is going on but I'm going to find the answer, as soon as he found the answer he would call me. He has been a great part in my family's life he is such a blessing.
