“How lucky for the people of Albuquerque and Santa Fe to have immediate access to the expertise of Dr. Robert Smith. His care and the methods with which he chooses to administer it are as professional and first rate as you could expect. While filming in New Mexico for most of 2012 I am beyond grateful to have experienced this care first hand. He is a gentleman and a friend.”

“Ive been going to Southwest Pain Management for the last 2 years now and Dr. Smith has always gone out of his way to make sure I was taken care of. Thanks to his treatments I’ve remained pain and injury free! Thanks Doc!”
I am a retired US Marine after 26 years in the Marine Corps. I have had pain and discomfort in my back for some time now. I am on my seventh tour in Afghanistan and I flew into Albuquerque to visit my wife for my R&R period back in December 2012. I was in a lot of pain and had every intention of visiting a chiropractor several times while visiting Albuquerque. Dr. Smith came HIGHLY recommended by a good friend of ours and she was right. Dr. Smith was kind, spent over an hour with me explaining in full detail what my injuries were and then preceded to treat the area so well with various therapeutic techniques that within a day or two my pain subsided considerably.
He was very knowledgeable about the anatomy of the head neck and spine and knew exactly what to do to relieve my pain.
After the series treatments he kindly recommended several products to use then provided a very detailed regimen to help decrease the pain when I return to Afghanistan.
And that’s not all… My wife was waiting in the office during my last treatment and she too has suffered back pain, so he then examined her treated her on the spot and was the first health practitioner to successfully adjust and align her back. She felt so much better after one treatment.
Dr. Smith sincerely cares about is patients. He spends a lot of time to assess each problem carefully. I am happy to report that I have been back in Afghanistan since January and have had zero back pain.
Thank you again for taking such great care of my wife and myself. We are truly grateful.
