5 /5 K M: Dr. Dean Smith and Channel Islands Medical group are great caregivers. Have seen Dr. Dean and his nurse, Dana, for years and they both provide top-notch care. His front desk staff always manage to squeeze me into their schedule quickly when Im ill. Have had extensive discussions with both Dr. Dean and Dana about my condition over the years, which requires regular treatment. Both are eager to learn about their patients experiences and it shows. Dr. Dean has had student doctors come into my exam room a number of times over the years so they can learn as well. Hes always super respectful about it and always asks me if Im comfortable with them joining him during my exam. 10/10, he is one of the two best medical providers Ive encountered all across the US over the years.
