Had to get a memory screen and medication review for my dad. Dr Shasti Smith explained things in plain language and we left with a clear plan. The team at Calvary Adelaide Hospital was respectful, and I appreciated how he checked the fall risk as well. 5
From the moment we walked into Level 5, the service was first-rate. Dr Smith listened to mum’s concerns about chronic condition management and adjusted her meds with care. I felt confident taking his guidance back to our GP in Adelaide. Highly recommended for seniors in the city. 5
As a carer for my grandmother in North Adelaide, I found Dr Smith’s memory screening really reassuring. He gave practical tips on day-to-day care and explained how to monitor medications safely. Very thorough and respectful. 4
Great experience at Calvary Adelaide Hospital. Dr Smith took time to discuss fall risk and the best strategies to keep mum steady at home. His Malay and English mix helped us feel at ease since she sometimes forgets. Would recommend to others in the Torrensville area. 5
Very impressed with the level of care. The appointment covered medication management for my father and a clear plan for chronic disease monitoring. Felt confident staying in Adelaide with his expert guidance. 5
I’m relieved we found Dr Smith. He explained the memory screening results in plain terms and suggested sensible next steps. The whole staff made the visit to 120 Angas Street smooth and friendly. 4
Dr Smith is thorough and patient. He reviewed my mother’s meds carefully and flagged potential interactions, then tailored a plan we could follow at home in Adelaide CBD. Also spoke Tamil which helped mum feel connected. 5
