About Me

Dr. Smiley specializes in Gynecologic Oncology, treating cervical, ovarian, vulvar and uterine cancers. She chose this field because it enabled her to be with her patients throughout every step of their cancer journey. From diagnosis, to surgery (if necessary), through treatment and on to recovery, Dr. Smiley provides exceptional medical care and emotional support. Additionally, she sees women with pre-invasive diseases, such as vulvar dysplasia, and non-malignant diseases that require surgery like severe endometriosis.

Extremely dedicated to her profession, Dr. Smiley extends the reach of her medical expertise to underserved populations through medical mission trips sponsored by her church. She is involved in several medical associations and serves on the Board of Directors for the Tennessee Chapter of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. To the surprise of many, beneath this consummate professional exists a bona fide cowgirl who loves riding her horses and showing competitively.
