Dr. Smith performed hip revision surgery, and discovered cobalt and chromium in my blood. The surgery was successful. He not only got rid of my pain, but he possibly saved me from liver damage and going blind. Great to communicate with and listened to my concerns. Knows his stuff!!~ Verified Patient~
