I gave this place a 1 star and it would let me. It stated there was an error and shouldnt try again? I had an appointment for a environmental test, they ended up doing a food allergy test instead even after i told them i already had done a food allergy test elsewhere. He never did the environmental test, wanted me to get blood work done before he went any further, so i took a day off work, called convient care to find out if i needed anything to do so and they told me i needed a blood work order. I called Smith allergy and they said that it was faxed, i waited 2 hrs called convient care and they hadnt recieved anythig. I called allergist back and they told me i didnt call til 11:30 so it wasnt faxed it would be sent that after noon. Meanwhile i cant eat or drink anything but water. I end up taking another day off because the blood lab closed before they got the order, hopeful that my order would be in by morning. I called convient care in the morning to find out that they still have not received the order and that smith allergy is closed for the next 4 day. So now im out 2 days pay and still havent gotten anywhere, smith allergy is inadequate and unprofessional. Do not go there do your research and find a place that actually cares.

Amazing staff! Some of the best testing! Very accurate and understanding. Definitely recommend them for anyone who needs help with allergy control! Their amount of confidence made me not afraid to go again!

Staff is usually friendly but am giving 3 stars because there hasn’t been a time when I didn’t have a very long waiting time. Seems like they either overbook appointments or take a break while you’re waiting in the room

(continued review from Rose)- the thing he had to remind me that I had and was reffered for at the first visit, and the thing he had to explain when I saw it printed on my lab.He didnt listen to one word I said; I wanted to point out how Doctors ignore patients who advocate for themselves (almost all of my current diagnoses including Hoshimotos and my thyroid which required biopsying, went unbelieved by Dr.s for years... this is worse if you are female, young, fat - got forbig that you are female and fat). And that even now, when it wasnt me who wanted this referral or said anything about tryptase - it is literally being assumed that I would - to the extent that he felt comfort in laughing while comenting about why I thought would have that when there is no way I have it. My only other guess about why he would come up with soemthing like that is that he looked at how many Dr.s i see in Epic (all of them I have legitimate diagnoses for) and decided I must be a hypochondriac.I showed him the photos that I hadnt... these are personal photos of my head and face with lighting so that you can witness any and every change - like I said serious enough to be getting a referral to craniofacial specialist, pending mri results from my tmj mri I got last friday. He literally interrupts me as Im showing him these pictures, these highly personal photos Ive chosen for him to have access to that showcase pathology that is lifechanging to say the least, if not life ending. my skull is literally changing rapidly and there may be nothing to do about it. He literally puts a hand up and tells me he doesnt do... I interrupt him back and reassure him whwt i know the only interruption ever is - that I know he doesnt do anything with this, Im showing him in case there is any recognizable hint of some pathology that is within his jurisdiction. I dont have time to write everything but he clearly didnt near a word I said bc he continues to tell me how he doesnt do anything with autoimmune disorders (not addressing how he knows its autoimmune) an dalso assuming htat I wouldnt take his word for it, if he didnt treat something we deteremined to be autoimmune (no one determined anything I have no diagnoses for that yet). I later caught him and tried to tell him how that insults the persons intelligence that youre doing it too - bc youre showing htem you dont think they would believe you - you shutting them down shows them that, on top of just refusing to hear them or have a desire to know whats going on - it shows he thinks the patient is stupid, since hes confident any further sharing of our narrative will be some attempt at getting him to help (again, not believing him bc were too stupid to understand) and he goes on to tell me rheumatology addressed over active immune systems, immunology addresses immunodeficiencies. This by the way, on top of not having anything to do with anything I was talking about, has nothing to do with me sharing something profoundly serious, which you can acknowledge and acknowledge how hard it was to share, literally thank the person for trusting you enough to do so, and express hope that they get help - you can do thta while telling htem you think its likely autoimmune related and taht rheumatology is who you should consult.. He already knows I see rheum since Dr. Meator referred me here. I tried to express a couple more times bc he kept interrputing me... that I showed him those photos in case he thought they could be due to immunodeficiencies and he kept speaking over me telling me what I already knew, bc he assumes Im an idiot. he literally says the same thing over and over that rheum deals with over active immune system, he deals with under active... I also pointed out that my tryptase was elevated I know bc he himself had told me ata the last appointmnt - Dr. meators lab had shown it.

Continued review from Rose and Joannhe off the top of his head informs me that you need to have consistently high tryptase to have mast cell activation - again not anything I was wondering about - my point was that indeed I had high level tryptase and again did not take it upon myself to get tested for it, as he accused me of today. and I doubt thats all accurate, since he was treating me like hypochondriac despite me informing with much anger that it was him who had to tell me waht that even was, and Dr. meator who told me he wanted Dr. Smith to follow up on that (along with other things dr. smith conveniently forgot like gluten allergy - which he condescendingly asked me why I thought i had that despite it saying on the referral taht i was positive for both pairs of the celiac genes (as I said this he interrupted me and said antibodies ok and went out hte door....I had to later correct him when I got him back in the room).So he waved off the photos, showing him he wasnt interested in my health let alone me as a person, let alone that he thought I could share my own experiences or that they mattered... infuriated that I came here for that abuse and likely poor medical care, since it was basesd on his incorrect bias that this was all my idea - I asked him to check me for athsma related allergies. To get me off my back he gives me a standard function breathing test instead of an allergen test in relation to lung obstruction.Its then I remember that I needed to tell him just how the vaccine had made it harder to breathe - had made the chronic moistness and difficulty breahting that I usually have, worse.... he lazily points to the basic function test we just did and I looked him in the eye like you loser really? and as if Im dumb enough to think thats all there could possibly be to testing that.... this guy thinks Im a real idiot. and with autoimmune disorders you have difficulty remembering or cognating sometimes ()brain fog they say in my hoshimotos support group, and with the changing of my skull Ive been having increased difficulty (which is especially difficult for me to deal with considering that my intellect has always been part of my identity, and how I enjoy existing) - on top of this I just had taken albuterol which makes it me extremely sleepy.... I didnt do a lot of justice in demonstrating that I am not idiot he assumed I was (based on what I do not know. I have to assume appearance, being fat and having the deformity, despite him seeing i didnt always have it.... he clearly assumes I must not be capable of cognating at all). I made him do some kind of gluten test (he chose basic bloodwork) and on his way back I asked to speak w him.... tried to articulate that hed brushed me off under some bias.... which I didnt deserve. He just stands there as if hes being scolded by his mother (Im sitting down and being sincere) and tells me he is sorry about that, while clearly still not appreicating me or anything Ive articulated.
