Dr. Smithback is the BEST doctor I've ever had! Her care, empathy, knowledge, relatability and enthusiasm is unmatched. She really takes the time to listen to her patients and never makes you feel rushed or silly for going into detail or asking questions. You can tell from the first meeting you have with her that she truly has such a passion for helping others and cares so deeply about her patients. Dr. Smithback listened intently to my medical history, never made me feel silly for stating my concerns (which so many other doctors have), and came up with a treatment plan tailored just for me. She has worked with me to adjust my treatment plan multiple times, and has never doubted what I'm telling her my body is experiencing. She has always made me feel like I have an ally, which I've learned is SO important to have in your doctor. Dr. Smithback is the absolute best and I will forever be grateful to her for how much she has helped me over the past year. Cannot recommend her enough!!
I have multiple health issues related to toxin exposure. Dr Smith back listens intently and gave me a very detailed program. I can't say enough about her.

I recently had the pleasure of having Dr. Chelsea Smithback as my doctor for a PRP (platelet-rich plasma) procedure. From the moment I walked into Nature and Science Medicine I felt so welcomed, their front desk are wonderful and made scheduling a breeze. Dr. Smithback is extremely competent and knowledgeable about the procedure, and she took the time to thoroughly explain the process to me and answered all of my questions. She made sure I was comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process, and I felt very confident in her. Even the blood draw Sera did, was effortlessly easy. Dr. Smithback thoroughly assessed my injury, made the procedure seamless, and gave me additional treatments for my injury to increase my recovery and healing. I had torn my ACL and had surgery and we did PRP for recovery and my knee felt so much better after. I was able to be back skiing so much earlier! I would highly recommend Dr. Smithback to anyone in need of a PRP procedure.
Dr. Smithback is gentle, attentive, and professional. I got sick with mononucleosis early in college but didn't know it, and went to urgent care time and time again. They tested me for all of the common viruses, at one point told me I might have an allergic reaction, and said that they really did not know what I had. I had no energy, had the hardest time waking up, had dizziness, temperature changes, brain fog… I kept searching for answers but no place could tell me with certainty that I had mono since most people test positive for antibodies. Most doctors told me there was no treatment. Then I heard about Nature & Science from a friend. With the supplements Dr. Smithback prescribed, I am now back to normal in just 6 months. She is a God-send! She listened to every health concern I had and explained to me their causes. I have energy now, am able to exercise, focus well, and have better moods! Thank you Dr. Smithback!
Just finished my first PRP back appointment and in disbelief how easy that was. She’s very gentle and spends the time talking to you to ensure all questions are answered before starting. Go see her!

She is very passionate about her job and it shows through her words and actions. Dr.Smithback recommended specific herbs and vitamins tailored to my symptoms that I have been dealing with for quite a while and they changed my life very quickly. The rest of the staff that I have encountered have been nothing but kind and supportive. If you want to change your life and feel your best I truly recommend seeing Dr. Smithback! She has been a lifesaver and I am starting to feel the best I have ever felt in my life!
I’ve had 3 visits with Dr. Smithback and if you saw me basically crawling in here on my first visit vs now a couple months later, I look like a different person. She has helped me figure out some bizarre health issues and I’m so grateful.

FAQs

I am currently in the process of becoming covered by insurance companies. In the meantime, I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for potential coverage. While I cannot guarantee that your insurance will cover the cost of the visit, there is a possibility that they will. I also accept HSA and FSA cards.
Making healthcare affordable is important to me, so I am happy to work with patients to create affordable treatment plans. Additionally, I collaborate with patients' primary care providers (PCPs) to utilize insurance whenever possible, in order to reduce the overall cost for the patient.
Through my residency, I treated hundreds of patients with varying conditions. After residency, I chose to specialize in a few particular areas to become as knowledgeable about those conditions as I can be and have great outcomes for my patients. I still treat conditions outside of those specialties as well. Please message me if you would like to know if I can treat your condition.
