Clinical Interests

Enhanc­ing void­ing and con­ti­nence, through ther­a­pies and inter­ven­tions that improve patients’ qual­i­ty of life. For uri­nary incon­ti­nence, I spe­cial­ize in neu­ro­mod­u­la­tion which refines your own nerve con­duc­tion path­ways boost­ing uri­nary con­trol. For BPH, I spe­cial­ize in fash­ion­ing the most effec­tive pro­sta­t­ic chan­nel by the least intru­sive means to increase uri­nary flow and con­trol. I pro­vide a vari­ety of stones treat­ments and pre­ven­tion strate­gies and per­form vasectomies.

Personal Interests

Hik­ing, sports, med­ical mis­sions and church.

"Dr. Smith and his staff, as well as the staff at the ASC in Lombard, worked diligently and with great care and compassion to add me on to an already crowded day to take care of me in an emergent basis thanks to Dr. Smith. I did not expect them to move heaven and earth for me to get me to have a procedure when all I was looking for was a way to somehow get an office appointment quicker. My follow up office visit was scheduled right away as well, which was a blessing and the staff could not have been more caring, professional, and supportive at this follow up visit that I am evaluating."
