I want to start by saying if it was not for Dr. Hardwick-Smith I know I would not be living the life I have now. I have had female problems since I was in my teens, for over 20 years I have been in and out of numerous OB/GYN offices in many states. Dr Hardwick-Smith was the only one who started the visit in her office, where she listened to me and and asked Questions about my history, taking the time to understand and really care about what was wrong and how I felt, instead of rushing me thru and telling me it was all in my head or was just like here take this medicine like so many other Doctors had done. The day of my surgery She was there making sure I had the best care every step of the procedure, she was kind, and compassionate always explaining everything, Through out my whole ordeal I never felt rushed or that I was a bother to her like so many other doctor's in the past had made me feel. To atttest to her skills as a surgeon, after my hysterectomy, I was up walking and in no pain the very next day. I was just amazed and grateful that I took the advice of a friend and went to see Dr. Hardwick-Smith. Because from the moment I made my appointment, thru the surgery and the visits after I have always been treated with respect and caring from the person who answers the phone, to the person who checks me out. They all are wonderful caring people, who stop and give you the time and care you need to understand everything. So the next time you are waiting a few extra minutes, remember maybe a baby is being born, or maybe the patient before you is needing a few extra minutes to understand what is going on with them. Because I can reassure you, Dr Hardwick-Smith and her staff will do the same for you.
Pros: The Doctor really CARES !
