About Richard C. Smith, MD

I became a physician because I have a curiosity for life and the human body. Caring for patients matters very much to me. It is very rewarding to use my knowledge to improve a patient’s medical condition. My practice combines compassionate care with top-of-the-line medical practice. Outside of work, I am a dad of a beautiful 8-year-old girl. I play music (drums), surf, snowboard and mountain bike.
