After earning his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degree from the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1984, Dr. Smith went on to complete his internship and residency in Neurological Surgery at Doctors Hospitals in Columbus, Ohio. 

Before long, he became board-certified through the American Osteopathic Board of Surgery, which is an organization that provides board certification to qualified DOs who specialize in the use of surgery to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of Neurological disease.

In practice since 1990, Dr. Smith is affiliated with several hospitals that are a part of the Texas Health network, including Texas Health Midtown, Texas Health HEB, and primarily Texas Health Fort Worth.

In addition to being a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and a Fellow of the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons (FACOS), the doctor is a member of the American Osteopathic Association, the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, the Texas Association of Neurological Surgeons, and the North American Spine Society.

Neurosurgery is the medical specialty concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, surgical treatment, and rehabilitation of disorders which affect any portion of the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and extra-cranial cerebrovascular system. Neurosurgeons are doctors who diagnose and treat problems with the nervous system, often by performing surgery on the brain or spine. They treat strokes, tumors, certain types of birth defects, infections, and head or spinal cord injuries.
