I am 42 years old and was told I needed a total right hip replacement due to severe end-stage arthritis. Since I was/am still recuperating from a total hysterectomy because of a benign mass, this was not the greatest of news. Dr. Smith and his staff were terrific to me holding my hand through the entire experience. Catering to my overthinking mind and answering my endless questions. My family was treated with the same kindness. Dr. Smith did a fantastic job; I didn't realize how much pain I was in before the surgery. My joint doesn't hurt at all, doesn't grind, doesn't catch. Wow. Once my muscles get back to normal I have every confidence I will be pain-free. Thank you, Dr. Smith, Annie and all of you. God Bless You All!
