Dr Smeester and his staff are extremely professional, caring and responsive. By far, it is the best medical care and treatment I receive, including that from my personal physician. I feel that Dr Smeester and his staff sincerely care a lot about their patients.

Dr. Smeester is so kind and professional, he respects all humans and is the best addiction specialist I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. It’s a complicated disease and he’s understands the ins and outs of recovery. He doesn’t pressure you or judge you, just a great doctor overall and the front desk staff is great to very accommodating

Looking for a new Dr??? Are you tired of not being heard by your Dr.’s? Does your Dr type away on his computer during your appointment and not even look at you? Let me tell you your search is over. Dr Smeester doesn’t do either he looks into your eyes the whole appointment. He really listens

Dr. Smeester started out kind and seemingly wanting to help, but as time went on anytime I would call to make an appointment to see him I would get a call from his front office trying to cancel that appointment. The reasons I would get for him wanting to cancel my appointment would be that he was referring me back to a different doctor (who is coincidentally his wife) or that "he can just handle that in a phone call." Then when I had the phone call, he was rude and said that he didn't really know me because he hadn't seen me in a while which blew my mind since I have tried to see him in person at least two times in the last six or so months and was told both times that he didn't think it was important enough for an in person appointment. I don't know what physician, especially in addiction medicine specialist, turns away an addict when they're asking for his help because he thinks he knows what they're going to say before they even get there for their appointment. If you want to get and stay sober, Dr. Smeester is not the one to help you get and stay there.

Dr. Smeester is very caring and actually listens to the concerns of his patients. When he wasn't able to help me with a concern, he referred me to someone who was one of the best in the business. His staff is extremely nice and professional. I overall love Dr. Smeester and his practice!!

Dr. Smeester, over the years has by far been the most consistent, patient, always listening to the many difficult challenges we all go through. In my opinion, one could not have a better doctor. Most definitely 10 votes out of 5!!!
