About J. S. Smitherman
I believe that each patient deserves my complete dedication and attention, so I take the time needed to address their problems. I am a "less is more" kind of doctor. I am not going to ask you to pay for and then swallow a pill unless I am confident from medical research and experience that it is beneficial.The bottom line — I would not provide recommendations to my patients that I would not also provide to my own family.

When I am not at work, most of my free time goes to my family. We love to ski, cycle or just play in our backyard.

Very efficient and affective communication. Stays on point of the appointment. Very nice.

Dr. Smitherman was very warm and open, listened well to me, examined my finger thoroughly and gave a diagnosis. He explained it well, answered my questions, printed out some photos and information then answered more questions. He was a "fill-in" doctor for that day and clinic, I had never seen him before, but I would feel good about seeing him again.
