Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Patients consistently praise Shannon Smothers for her exceptional listening skills, with this being by far the most frequently mentioned strength across reviews. Patients feel genuinely heard and never rushed during appointments, and many highlight her calm, warm demeanor that puts them at ease. She is widely described as knowledgeable, thorough, and professional, with numerous reviewers noting that she takes the time to answer all questions clearly and involves patients in their own healthcare decisions. Her ability to provide actionable guidance, follow up after visits, and respond promptly through the patient portal are also frequently appreciated. Several long-term patients — some spanning 10 to 24 years — cite her consistency and trustworthiness as key reasons they continue to see her and recommend her to friends and family.

Patients also share

The reviews contain very few criticisms. Two separate reviewers noted that Shannon can be soft-spoken and tends to mumble, making it difficult to hear her clearly at times, particularly for patients with any degree of hearing difficulty. One reviewer mentioned she could improve eye contact by looking up from her notes more during appointments. These are the only recurring concerns noted, and both relate to communication style rather than the quality of care provided.
