The reviews contain very few criticisms of Shannon Smothers specifically. Two reviewers independently noted that she can be soft-spoken and tends to mumble, making it difficult to hear her clearly at times, and one of those reviewers also mentioned she could improve eye contact during appointments. One review suggested she could ask more questions to better learn about a patient's health background. These represent isolated observations rather than recurring themes.
