Patients appreciate

Shannon Smothers, PA is consistently praised by patients for her exceptional listening skills and ability to make patients feel heard and respected. Reviewers frequently highlight her thoroughness, professionalism, and warm bedside manner, with many noting that she never makes them feel rushed during appointments. Patients appreciate her deep knowledge and her ability to clearly explain diagnoses, test results, and treatment options in an understandable way. Her responsiveness — both during visits and through the patient portal — is frequently commended, and many patients describe her as collaborative, involving them in their own healthcare decisions. Long-term patients in particular express strong loyalty and trust, with several noting they have seen her for a decade or more and would not choose anyone else.

Patients also share

The reviews contain very few criticisms. Two separate reviewers noted that Shannon can be soft-spoken or prone to mumbling, making it occasionally difficult to hear her clearly, particularly for patients with hearing difficulties. One reviewer suggested she could improve eye contact during visits rather than looking down at her notes. These were isolated observations and did not significantly detract from those patients' overall positive impressions of her care.
