“I moved my mother to Cairo about three years ago and needed to find a doctor. She has many medical issues but also has a long history of a mental health problem as well. Together we discussed her options and she chose Dr. Nesmith. Well one night her mental health issue caused her to start acting rather unusual. I contacted Dr. Nesmith and he assisted me in getting her in to see someone at a mental health clinic. This may sound so simple but the truth is that it is hard to get in at the last minute and if her medication is not regulated, she spirals out of control. In the past she has lost everything as a result. Not only has he done this, every time he sees my mother, he always hugs her. She is excited to go see him and follow up. A hug may not mean much to some, but for those who have always been treated different, a hug goes a long way!”

“Dr. Nesmith is my mother's doctor and every time she goes for a visit the first thing he does is give her a hug. You should see the smile on her face and the way she listens to him intensely. Because of this kind gesture, she follows his directions better than she has with any other doctor and always recommends him to her friends. Recently she had mental health crisis. He answered all of my questions and assisted me, her daughter, with getting her back on track. Afterwards he continued to follow-up and make sure she was doing better. He always has been kind and compassionate to my mother. Many doctors in the past were not because of her mental illness and ignored her true medical issues. For the first time, she is being treated as a whole person not just a person with a mental illness. Many thanks to him!”
