About Kenneth G. Smith, MD

Care Philosophy The aspect of my work that I'm most excited about is that it allows me to continue to learn and find new ways to help my patients - new ways to address old problems, which allows my patients to recover more quickly, with less pain and suffering and the ability to continue on with their lives.

        I waited almost 2weeks to see the surgeon. He agreed my issue needed immediate surgery. Had surgery scheduled, but was told by scheduler unless I paid for charges $1260(amount they estimated was my responsibility after my insurance coverage) today, Dr Smith would not perform the surgery. I asked why they wouldn't just bill my insurance/United Healthcare, but received no explanation. But, if I couldn't afford $1260, they would accept $750. Then was asked what can I pay today. What's the point of having insurance? This office should tell patients before making an appointment they're expecting payment prior to any procedure so they don't waist 2 weeks and $50 copay. Planning to inform my insurance, my employer HR department and anyone else as needed.
