As a nurse practitioner, Smits assists general surgery and orthopedic physicians in offering a complete range of care including orthopedic concerns (total joint replacement, sports medicine, pediatric orthopedics, trauma and fractures) and general surgery issues (advanced laparoscopic procedures, varicose veins and colonoscopies).

“I work collaboratively with my patients and partner with them to effectively diagnose and treat their specific health concern,” Smits says. “Being able to serve the community I live and grew up in is extremely rewarding for me.”
