After my first meeting with Dr Smith, I felt assured that my decision to move my treatment to Northwestern was the right one. During the meeting I became aware Dr Smith was well accomplished in a number of specialties ie treatments for Stage IV Cancer. She impressed upon me a commitment to use those specialties to help me through this phase of my life. I am so grateful.

I am very comfortable with her. I didn’t think I would want to discuss anything, but my calls are refreshing and Dr. Smith is great with feedback and just listening. I walk away rejuvenated until the next call.
