I have been in continuous practice in the Neurological Surgery Department at the University of South Florida College of Medicine for over 30 years. While I still provide general neurosurgical care, my focus areas include Deep Brain Stimulation for the management of movement disorders, the treatment of degenerative spinal conditions, and neurosurgical procedures for the relief of pain.

Dr. Donald Smith, is 1 in a million. One of the most AMAZING doctors ive ran across in a long tme. He's what I believe that doctors were years ago. And, what they should be today. A doctor that, cares, skilled, great compassion, kindness, and MOST OF ALL, HE LISTENS TO HIS PATIENTS. And, he's NOT, in a rush. He makes you feel, human, and not a number. That you matter. And, he wants to help you...
