Patient Reviews
Aug 12, 2019
This whole Place is great, the staff is caring and the receptionist is 5 stars . First time with Dr. Smolar and I have to say he is worthy of 5 stars. He's caring, listens to my worries, very professional but on the other hand you get the feeling he's your next door neighbor. I trust his decisions which is very important to me. Great doctor, seriously if you have a problem go see him you won't be disappointed.
