Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Excellent Experience
I don’t normally do reviews but in the case of Dr Spivack I feel I have to. My experience with him was outstanding and left me feeling that I am truly getting the best care possible. He is professional, considerate, knowledgeable, explains everything very well and genuinely works to ensure that the reasons for care options are understood and any question answered clearly.

Being a Nurse of 35yrs I am extremely judgmental of Dr’s. Dr Spivack rates 110%! The most important thing a Dr. can do is listen and don’t “talk down” to the Patients! He is VERY Respectful and EXTREMELY Knowledgeable!!! OMG!- HE LISTENS!!! Because of his “Down to Earth” Attitude I have chosen to continue services!!! ????????????????

I have been seeing Dr. Spivak for some years now,and I find him to be a caring and professional Cardiologist. Some drs. will be snappy and rush you,etc.. Not my dr.-he takes the time to listen to you and tells you when you're doing things right so you'll feel encouraged to take better care of yourself.

Dr. Spivack is very friendly. He takes the time that is needed to explain and will answer any questions you have. His staff takes the time needed and won't rush you through your appointment. From the time you enter the office He and his staff greets you with a smile. A completely professional practice.

The positive reviews on here about this doctor are shocking. He is the worst doctor my mother has ever received treatment from. He is extremely rude. He had no compassion, no patience, and didn’t try to help her at all. My mother left the office in tears and now is trying to search for a new doctor. The staff in the office did not call to follow up or apologize, nor did he for the the treatment she received. Worst place ever, do not waste your time.
