About Stephanie D Smith
About the Provider
I’ve been interested in health care ever since I was in elementary school. In second grade, I learned about Florence Nightingale and that inspired me to think about nursing as a career. In high school, I worked in a nursing home and developed an interest in caring for older adults, especially those with memory disorders.
After graduating from high school and pursuing my nursing degree, I spent 12 years in geriatric primary care making house calls — a time that deepened my passion for this patient population. Over time, I realized I wanted to specialize in cognitive disorders and provide more targeted care for patients experiencing these types of issues.
In my practice today, I take a practical, patient-centered approach. Because my background is in primary care, I think about the whole person and how everything fits together in their day-to-day life. I also have an interest in palliative care, which means I focus on quality of life and what matters most to each person I treat. I truly enjoy building relationships and supporting patients and their families through what can be a challenging and emotional journey.

I was pleased with my first appointment with Mrs. Stephanie Smith. She immediately put me at by giving her complete and, total attention . She explained everything completely and, asked questions about the issues i was concerned with and then fully explained anything I showed concern with. She completely put me at ease with her and, I left the appointment feeling that we had definitely covered the issues i was concerned with and she had got the same back from me. I look forward to seeing her again at my next scheduled appointment! I also felt as that should questions arise before our next visit that i or my support people should feel free to reach out to her with any additional concerns.
