Patient Reviews
Dec 07, 2023
Dr Smucker has been taking care of my degenerative disc disease since we moved to Michiana 10 years ago. I have had a series of epidurals to control pain as the problem moved lower on my back and the most recent left and right ablations in my lower back. Each time he has been expert and compassionate and his team has been remarakbly cohesive, kind and professional
