Dr. Smith II

"Where do I even begin with this journey. Fast forward to going to my appointment with Dr. Smith to discuss my options for mitral valve repair. I am 51 and thought my overall health was pretty well under control until a doctor heard a heart murmur.

Dr. Smith is very thorough in explaining the steps needed to treat this condition. Him and his whole staff at Baylor Scott and White are wonderful.

If you or anyone you know has valve issues I would definitely recommend Dr. Robert Smith and his team. Thank you Dr. Smith for being so awesome and what you do."
