Meet Dr. Wendy L. Smith

In her free time, Dr. Smith enjoys her koi pond, gardening, knitting, writing stories and traveling. They have two adult children and one grandchild. Dr. Smith now calls Blairsville, Georgia home and is glad to finally be in one place long enough to see the trees and flowers grow.

Dr. Smith has an interest in general ENT, from newborns to adults as well as Allergy, Sinus and Sleep Apnea. She is very pleased to offer state of the art hearing aids and hearing testing through her very qualified and professional team of Audiologists.
