Dr. Smith was thorough in explaining the procedure, our options and even referred us to another physician who would be able to treat my daughter if we decided against the procedure. My daughter said Dr. Smith was the nicest doctor she's ever seen. Because her concerns were validated and she was personally given the opportunity to decide, she felt like she could go ahead and agree to the procedure.

This was my first time to see Dr. Marshall Smith but I had seen Julia Ellerston prior for voice therapy. Dr. Smith's quiet mannerisms put you at ease the minute he spoke to you. I had had the larynx scope done previously but at a different location, so knew what to expect. Things were explained to me as the test was being taken and then upon leaving the room other tests were performed. I was pleased with the visit and would recommend this office to others.

I felt a little overwhelmed with the 3 people in the room. I didn't really understand that I was meeting with 2 doctors and the assistant (or whoever he was). I actually had many questions afterwards, when I had processed the whole visit. They talked to each other a lot, but were polite as they would then explain to me separately. And then I was swept away to the Speech Drs room. It was odd how she seemed to purposely make me cough?? that's how it seemed. Overall it was a good experience. I was just thrown off as it unfolded and I felt unaware of exactly what all was happening. Perhaps because I was thrown off, I didn't really have questions until it was all over. I did ask a few of the questions to the scheduling girls who were very nice and tried to find he answers for me.

My first time in the office, I left very frustrated. I waited for a while, and saw Dr. Smith for only a few minutes. I had waited several months for my appointment, and it was frustrating that I felt as though he didn't have time to me and my voice problem wasn't at all important to him, and I left with a short assessment and no proper diagnosis. My second experience IN the office was fantastic! Dr. Smith was very attentive and patient and helpful. He took time to explain what was happening in terms we could understand, using analogies and terms we could relate to. He helped me feel hopeful about my diagnosis, and like he cared about my specific case and that I was worth his time. I was very grateful for Dr. Smith's time and attention.

We came in to have the wax cleaned out of her ears. The Dr. ended up pulling her ear tube out while we were there. They were tubes that were supposed to be removed surgically. He said that her eardrums pushed them out and they were just sitting in the wax in her ear canal. However my daughters screaming and crying made me believe that it was very painful. The Dr. didn't tell us what he was doing and wasn't the least worried that she was screaming and crying.

Dr Marshall Smith is an excellent surgeon. He is extremely knowledgeable and also very compassionate and caring. My laryngeal nerve was severed during a serious operation for a tumor in my chest. After this surgery (in Colorado), I was told by the oral surgeons in Colorado that nothing could be done for my voice. My voice limitations affected almost all areas of my life-- employment, my socialization and my confidence. Dr Smith was confident he could "repair" my laryngeal nerve and improve my voice. I am thrilled to say that after several months, my normal voice has almost completely returned.My wife and I highly recommend Dr Smith and cannot thank him enough for giving me back my life!

UofU Patient
December 28, 2015
I felt a bit rushed. The nurse hadn't even completed her paperwork before the care provider came in to do the treatment. I was a little concerned when someone else's slip about the condition of their voice was in my file. I felt that a little more time should be taken to be sure the paperwork was correct before the treatment was started. This is the first time anything like this has ever happened, but it did seem like patients were being rushed through the process.

UofU Patient
July 31, 2015
the dr. was kind, and I did not feel rushed. I understand that we needed further tests to understand the problem, but why did I have to pay to have him look at my son for very literally 30 seconds and tell me to come back in 2 months for a test. I had to tell at least 4 different people "why" I was in there. The people scheduling, the front desk people, the nurse, and the Dr. When I go to my primary care physician, he walks in and says, "I saw that you were here for a broken arm; I already looked at the x-rays, and here's the plan." I didn't expect a specialist to walk in totally unprepared, especially when I had given the same information 3 times before. I feel like my concerns weren't fully understood or listened to. Highly disappointing visit.

The doctor himself was squeezed for time due to a funeral he had to attend and said he would review my records and the results of the exam later. However, the rest of the team (three people) were outstanding and I felt I was extremely well cared for, examined, and diagnosed. I was very pleased with the team. The doctor's situation was unfortunate but understandable and I have no issue with that.

Due to the wait time and my frustrations, this caused me to neglect to ask some of the questions I wanted to. In addition to him being so far behind he spent minimal time with me and my child. I am not confident that we even addressed what we went there for.
UofU Patient
April 20, 2015
Their experience and educational backgrounds surely made my visit to both the speech pathologist and the doctor one on which I can place my trust.

I travel to SLC to see Dr. Marshall Smith because I think he is a wonderful caring doctor. He is very responsive and attentive to my needs and takes the time to answer my questions in a professional responsible manner. I like that. He is better for me than what I have in Saint George. I like him a lot. I'm also happy that I got to meet Dr. Noah Kolb during this appointment/meeting. He assisted Dr. Smith with my LEMG and I liked the fact that both doctors paid attention to my needs as a team. It is all good from my point of view. I feel that I'm in good hands.

Very efficient at getting the job done...It is unbelieveable that someone can feel the larynx and give shots from the outside... That is why he is so amazing to me...He makes sure I have enough anesthetic before he gives shots...Thus no pain...I told him my problems and why I got so nervous, and he has fixed every one of them...He has found the perfect dose for me to almost always have a voice...It is kind of rumbly for a week, and sometimes gets to a whisper, but since he found the proper dose it is better and better...

The only criticism I have is that the procedure I had was far more painful than explained by anyone associated with my treatment. I was actually in shock during and immediately following the neck injections. I think doctors should ensure that patients are given the truth about pain levels they can expect rather than being told its "a little painful".

I wish I could have asked more question or everything was explained more thoroughly. At the time I just didn't think things through and now have more questions I would like to ask.

Marshall Smith is an excellent physician in all ways.
UofU Patient
May 08, 2013
From the time he walked into the room, he was cold and short. He told us that my daughter has to get strep 2 more times this year before he would take her tonsils out, which is fine except to my 5 year old that means that she has to get her throat swabbed and be on medicine 2 more times before the doctor will help her feel better. My child has had strep so many times in the past 2 years that she can tell me when she has it. I understand his hesitation and caution on this matter, but he could have been a little more caring about a 5 year old. He was very unapproachable.

I have been seen by Dr. Marshall Smith for many years, and have complete confidence in his ability to help me with my voice issues. If I ever had to relocate to another part of the country I would be very concerned about finding someone I trusted as much! I'd probably just fly back to SLC for treatment.

I would highly recommend Dr. Smith, but I would tell my friend to bring a long novel to read and to not make any other plans for the next several hours in case the wait is as long as mine was.

The current treatments/medications have been in use for close to 20-years. It seems that newer medications/treatments should be available.

Would have liked the doctors to ask if you have any questions and explain what was seen on the computer a little more throughly.

Dr. Smith mentioned an alternative procedure shortly before I went in for surgery. This was the first time the alternative was mentioned, and I would have liked having the information earlier, perhaps during the exam the previous day. I don't think it would have changed the course of treatment, but I did not feel that there was adequate time to make an informed decision. Again, I think the course of treatment was appropriate, but it was a little bit of a shock to hear that there was another option as I was headed into surgery.

I would appreciate not only a diagnosis, but better explanations of the process at how the diagnosis was determined. Also, I would have appreciated being presented with more options from non-traditional, alternative medicine. I feel that Dr. Smith is very closed-minded to anything but big-pharma-funded approaches.

Dr. Smith removed the tonsils and adenoids for my other child, and the experience was good. In the exam room, he is somewhat clinical and dry, and goes a little fast in providing information to someone who isn't as familiar with it as he is, but he is willing to repeat it if needed. I believe his speed is a result of being proficient.

My mother had a long medical history to explain but I felt the doctor listened intently and grasped everything the first time without needing any further explanation. He was very kind and compassionate and very smart.
