Meet Jim — an active, community-minded gentleman who spends his time volunteering, staying busy, and giving back whenever he can. Slowing down has never really been his style.

When Jim learned he needed gallbladder surgery, he did what most people do first — he went through his in-network providers. That’s when the frustration set in. The earliest available surgery date was months away, and even then, the total cost was unclear. Meanwhile, the pain continued to limit his energy, his sleep, and his ability to stay involved in the volunteer work he loves.

Looking for another option, Jim found Smith Medical—where surgery was scheduled sooner, pricing was clear, and care was focused on getting him back to living, not waiting.

He chose a faster, more affordable path to gallbladder surgery—without insurance delays or surprise bills.

Healthcare shouldn’t feel complicated or unpredictable.

That’s why our partnership with Pinnacle Advanced Primary Care makes so much sense.

Both of our teams are committed to:
• Transparent, upfront pricing
• Clear communication
• Empowering patients with real information
• Removing surprises from the healthcare experience

When a patient is referred from Pinnacle to Smith Medical Direct Specialty Care, they can expect continuity, clarity, and confidence every step of the way.

This is what healthcare should look like.

We’re grateful for the partnership and excited about what we’re building together.

Dr. Ciocchetti became a surgeon to improve quality of life—especially on patients’ hardest days.

“The ability to fix life-threatening problems and help people return to their daily routine is what I love most,” she says. “If I can make the world a little better by the end of the day, that matters.”

Trained in all areas of general surgery, her clinical interests include acute care surgery, venous insufficiency, breast disease, and complex hernia repair. A Colorado native, Dr. Ciocchetti earned her medical degree at Weill Cornell and completed residency at Saint Joseph Hospital before returning home to serve her community.

Outside the OR, she enjoys time with her family and dog, Bruno C—and she’s known for baking a mean cherry pie.

From the moment a referral comes in, we move fast. Patients are contacted within 24 hours, priorities are discussed, and options are presented—because one-size-fits-all care isn’t care at all.

From imaging to surgeon selection to an upfront price before surgery, every step is designed to eliminate back-and-forth, delays, and financial uncertainty.

This is how Smith Medical makes surgical care simpler, faster, and clearer.
