• I am a big fan of Dr. Smith. He's an excellent surgeon and I appreciate his telecom follow-ups. I would highly recommend him to anyone. After my carotid endarterectomy, I was disappointed with the Peak System. It was difficult to impossible to contact anyone to help me with my BP and other post-op issues. I also think the communications between the staff with the patients could be improved.

• After my referral, Peak made an appointment with me very fast. Everyone in the office are polite and well informed. I look forward to receiving treatment from Dr. Smith and his staff. I had my stint put in my right Iliac vein and everything went great. My after surgery care is fantastic. I was really scared the morning of my surgery and before I knew it, it was over. I am recommending Peak to my family and friends. I went in for my six months check up. My surgery is great. I am having issues somewhere else now. They have set me up to make sure that I don't have any blockages anywhere else and told me to get a referral from my general practitioner for a Heart specialist. I am going to ask on Monday at my doctor appointment to give me a referral for Peak Heart and Vascular. Dr. Smith in Vascular is very thorough and the staff are knowledgeable and professional.
