I saw Dr. Smoot after my injury and referred all my friends and coworkers to him and Texas Orthopedics, and will continue to do so.

I've been a patient of Dr. Smoot for 12 years and have always received top notch care. He replaced my ankle, dealt with unforeseen complications, performed foot surgery and treated my knee problems. I have also had excellent results with Drs. Onan, Mukai, Martinez and Laverty for various arthritic and orthopedic issues. I'm still walking upright at 76, and am relatively pain free. Today's visit was for pain arising from my prosthetic ankle and knee.. CT scan results are pending.

He's very knowledgeable, but fully engaged *with* a patient - totally avoiding the anachronistic authoritarian stance to which many physicians fall prey. Empathic without losing pragmatic focus. Truly cares about outcomes.

Dr. Smoot is very nice and thorough. I was a little concerned at first how quickly he jumped to recommending surgery but after doing research on my own, the recommendation makes sense. The office staff is somewhat inefficient. I was two minutes late checking in to my appt because I couldn’t find parking in their very small parking lot. Two of his patients who checked in after me were taken back before me and I had to wait an hour and 20 minutes before I saw the doctor.

Dr Smoot was amazing! He worked me into his schedule between surgeries to evaluate my foot injury! He was kind and knowledgeable! As a health care provider myself, I really appreciated his ability to see me on an emergency basis! I would highly recommend Dr Smoot.

I had Subtalar fusion surgery on my ankle in September 2018. One year I walked around with the bone not fusing. My daughter who is a physical therapist recommended Dr. Smoot. And I am happy to say that the bone graft he used from my hip is working!

Only few weeks into recovery from surgery too early to know results and overall effectiveness of corrective surgery. So far all is good no issues time will tell and I am satisfied as of now.

After over 2 yrs of surgery my right foot is still swollen and nerves are sensitive. Dr. Smoot can not tell me why he would not come into the exam room on my last visit. Too bad statue of limitations have expired.

Dr. Smoot was great. He got my son in early after an injury, treated him quickly and we were on our way with clear instructions about restrictions and how/when to rehab the high ankle sprain.

I was referred to Dr SMOOT by a family practice doctor. My left foot and ankle has been swollen for 10 days but there was no injury and the cause of the swelling is still a mystery. Dr SMOOT did X-rays and spent a fair amount of time asking questions and trying to explain the cause of the swelling. He told me to elevate it, wear compression socks when possible and we will hope it resolves. A friend had this condition recently and the unexplained swelling lasted a month. Dr SMOOT was very professional but also friendly and he put me at ease. The whole team at Texas Orthpedics was very welcoming, friendly and professional. Thank you
