Dr. Smith is an Emory treasure. On this particular visit I was having a really tough time and she listened and validated so much. This visit felt more productive than a year of therapy, and I left with a plan I felt good about.
Dr. Smith is a great problem solver and thinks outside of the box to solve issues that arise. She listens to her patient and works with the patient to solve the problem. Dr. Smith is a gem!!
Dr. Smith is very caring. I am older and there are times when I don't feel heard but Dr. Smith listens and is concerned about my health. I appreciate that she cares about my health and came up with a wonderful treatment plan.

Good
Very good at explaining and tries to be super inclusive
Dr Sarah Smith is by far the best doctor I have ever seen. Having been dismissed by primary care doctors and even specialists, it is deeply comforting as well as validating to have a doctor listen to you and address your concerns and symptoms.
Wonderful experience with Dr Smith
Dr. Smith is always thorough and informative

Dr Smith is an excellent doctor - very knowledgeable and offered additional treatments for my issue. She has a great bedside manor that makes me feel comfortable.
Awesome doctor and staff
Dr. Smith is exceptional as a physician and a most delightful person.
Dr Smith seemed very rushed. In my opinion, she seemed agitated for some reason. My actual time with the doctor for the appt was about 10 minutes. When asking about my concerns for my weight gain and trying to lose, she said "I'm not trained in that, you need to call your primary doctor." Which I understand it may not be what she handles, but just little concern or empathy was shown.
Dr. Smith is very direct and forthcoming with information. Really appreciate her communication style and guidance.
I had a problem. Dr Smith told me what to do and said to let her know what she could do if if weren't resolved.
Dr. Smith is an excellent provider. She listen to any concerns, answers every question, is very caring, and knowledgeable. She is by far, one the very best doctors I had in my entire life.
Dr. Smith is excellent! A great listener and very knowledgeable.
Excellent physician
Love Dr. Smith, she is always so great and taking time with me. She listens and offers suggestions in what we can do for further care.
Dr. Smith is one of my favorite doctors and favorite people. She is a healer and care provider in every sense of the word. She makes me feel seen, heard, understood, and respected. I can't say enough great things about Dr. Smith!! She's the best.
Dr. Smith is amazing. She answered every question I had, made sure I understood what was happening during the procedure, and even ease my anxiety when I made a request that other doctors may have shrugged off.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr Smith. She's my forever doctor!!
I have recommended Dr Smith to others.
Only comment is to have staff mentioned if any medical students are males prior to being asked if they can be in the rooms during exams but no issues, exam went smoothly
Dr. Smith is wonderful! She's an excellent listener, has compassion for patients, and does a great job giving context and explanations.
I love Dr. Smith and she was very attentive to my meds and concerns. My only suggestion would be to walk through every step of the procedure with patients, because o thought I understood everything but there were some things I did not. For example, I didn't know there was epinephrine in the numbing shot and I panicked a bit when my heart started racing.
She was thorough, succinct, funny, kind.
My sister has started seeing Dr. Smith after years of getting treated like her issues are the same as everyone and not being listened to when it came to her personal health. After seeing Dr. Smith she feels like she has a good plan to proceed with medical procedures and felt comfortable discussing her future fertility and possible complications and it has significantly improved her outlook on her personal health. Thanks to Dr. Smith she feels like she finally has a plan that she feels good about. We love Dr. Smith and while I know she deserves retirement one day, I am very glad that she is able to teach and mentor future doctors to treat people as she does. She is a rare gem that we are lucky to have been introduced to by Dr. Mary Dolan.
I love Dr. Smith. She explains options very clearly, always listens to my concerns, very evidenced-based which I appreciate a lot.
Dr. Smith and her staff are excellent. Addressed my concerns. Highly recommend her as a gynecologist.
Her concern for my situation was kind and included contacting another of my Emory doctors who had information I needed
Dr. Smith is wonderful. I'm sad it's taken me this long to find a doctor that listens and informs so well.

Yes she's excellent
Dr Smith was attentive and responsive at my visit, and promptly addressed a concern I had outside of the reason for my visit
She is very thorough and kind. She talked to me about my anxiety and asked questions about it, which I wasn't really expecting but I appreciated.
Great
Dr. Smith was very knowledgable regarding my fibromuscular dysplasia and how hormones play a role - needing caution for my situation. She was very explanatory and made sure I didn't have any questions. I was very Impressed with my first visit with this provider.
I am an established patient with Emory but not with her. It was our first visit and it was like we were doing a follow up. She changed my prescription which I wanted and told me what to expect but I didn't feel cared for. I was seen and treated. I got what I needed. No complaints there but that has not been the experience that I had with my other GYN or NP. Maybe more eye contact. More questions about my experience with my body ( menopause). Maybe just more curious about me and how I was feeling. How I want to feel. I would have liked more options about the medications available to me. The rapport or caring piece just didn't land for me. She actually made the decision and said wouldn't that be great. Even if she had walked me through her decision tree, I would have felt better. That came from not knowing me well. I'm tracking when I am at the doctor's or at least I want to.
Dr. Smith is very knowledgeable and confident. Remarkable in charge. Show and express outstanding leadership and showmanship. Top lead scholar.
Dr. Smith always listens well. When two different BP machines gave odd results and I mentioned it to her, she got her cuff and stethoscope and took my BP herself to give me a reasonable reading.
I've been recommending her to several friends.
Receiving a cold email stating your PAP results were abnormal but the advice is to repeat the test in three years seems bizarre to a layperson like me who's never had abnormal results before. I would appreciate a better sense of concern and caring, understanding that this sounds scary and like maybe we're just going to let cancer grow for three years before checking again.
Good experience
One of the best, thorough and efficient visit I have had at Emory Healthcare. It was amazing.
I can't speak highly enough of my first visit with this provider. I've had tough experiences with other OB/GYNs and this provider is the best experience I've had in my entire adult life with an OB/GYN provider. I feel like I got informed thoughtful care and was able to feel safer and trust the provider by the time the appointment wrapped.
I haven't ever done an online review before, but I really wanted to for Dr. Smith. I was so incredibly nervous going for this visit. She made me feel comfortable and walked me through the procedure. She actually had an eye contact conversation with me afterwards, was completely attentive and only focused on our discussion. She also clearly let me know what to anticipate next, and have even sent a followup to my primary by the time I got in my car.
She took a lot of time to explain the procedure, which included showing me pictures and spending a lot of time answering my many questions.
Dr. Smith is one of the best doctors I have ever seen. I cannot say enough good things about her. She really listens to her patients. I recommended her to a friend and she is the first doctor that made hwr feel better. I would recommend her 1000% to anyone. The only negative is she has gotten so popular that it takes longer to get an appointment.
She speaks gently
Very happy with Dr. Smith and her care during my visit.
Sarah Smith was compassionate, informed and quieted my fears.

Left the room several times to answer calls, didn't listen to what I said my issue was, ran tests I didn't need
Dr Smith is excellent!
I have recommended Dr Smith to family and friends. She is great!
Interaction with Dr was good, she answered questions and offered options. But felt like this could have been handled via telehealth or through the portal rather than time and expense of an office visit.
Dr Smith has a wonderful bedside manner and demeanor. She is very smart, listens, is caring
Dr Smith was wonderful. I felt listened to. My concerns were easily understood by Dr Smith. She explained her thoughts and changed one of my medications as she explained why she wanted the change. I told her I needed to be evaluated for a pessary and she went to the trouble of going out to the reception area to talk to a scheduler to help me get a timely appt. That was above and beyond and I'm very grateful.
Dr Smith is attentive, empathetic, and provides thorough explanations.
Dr. Smith was a surgical referral. I felt good about our meeting and conversation.

Dr. Smith is a wonderful listener and compassionate doctor. She may be busy but never makes me feel like she's too rushed to help or to explain things fully. She is very thorough, and not only gives her opinion about solutions but also explains what other options I might have.

Dr Smith was very thorough, kind, and explained things very well.
Dr Smith was great. She was warm and listened to my concerns and offered thoughtful approaches to care.
Dr. Smith is an excellent physician. Her decision-making is based on what the science shows and she does a very good job of explaining why she proposes a recommendation and provides the data to back it up. Her demeanor is inviting and I never have the feeling she's in a hurry to finish up. But she is quite efficient.
Dr. Smith was excellent. She was very comprehensive and patiently answered questions, explaining things in a way that I could fully understand.
Both Dr. Smith and the nurse (Sharon, I think?) whose surname was also Smith were SO tuned into my concerns. They listened and gave me their time; neither one seemed rushed at all. Dr. Smith respected my intellect and explained her recommendations and the research that supported those recommendations. I would totally recommend this practice to others!
Already recommended Dr. Smith to friends and my sister.
