I couldn't be more pleased with my progress since my rotator cuff repair. Dr Smalley knocked it out of the park. Very thankful for his skill and his care!

Thank God I found a Great Caring Dr. Chad Samlley. I fell and tore my mincuis in right knee had server pain and limit amount of range of motion as well. I was very nervous about the surgery that I didn't want to go through with it so I prayed and asked God to guide me in which direction to take. So God put it in my heart to have the surgery so I did. And Dr. Chad Smalley is a wonderful surgeon thank you so much for all your help I will be forever grateful for the surgery you done for me when I needed it so much. I'm on the the long road of recovery ahead of me but no matter what happens weather I get completely recover or not he did his best and that's all I could have asked for. So I thank you so much for all you have done for me and most of all thank God for putting you in my life. May God Bless you and your family .

Dr. Smalley provided excellent care exceeding all expectations for my shoulder replacement. The office staff was skilled , polite and always ahead of schedule. The rehab at Parkridge was also seamless , compassionate and helpful. My recovery has been much faster and less painful than expected. If you need shoulder surgery call Dr Smalley.

Waited 45 min to be called back, another 35 to see dr. He entered with the express intent of leaving asap. He spoke as fast as was humanly possible, almost like the speed talker at the end if an ad. He had no interest in being there and every remark was said dismissively as if it were the last. I squeezed in about 4 questions and got the shortest answers possible. At no time did he show any interest in anything but getting out of the room. I was not treated, I was very fastly tolerated. I had set my phone when he came in the door, and it was 4 and 1/2 min till he left. Must have seemed much longer to him as he was squirmingly anxious to get out. I have seen many doctors and he was almost comically fast and rude. Maybe he had somewhere else to go, but so did I....and I was paying for his time and information. I will not be back. Maybe he is better with earlier appts. Certainly not worth paying for late in the day. Hugely disappointing.
