I like Dr Spatz very much, she is very knowledgeable and personable. Wait time was a bit too long, but I understand sometimes a patient needs more time than allotted and that backs up the whole day

I was not pleased to be told by the doctor (not the nurse) that it would "take too long" to do it correctly, and they did not have time for me.

[...] educated me on my situation. He truly knows his stuff. And Dr. Spatz explained my MRI and provided the best advice. The both were very concerned about my wellbeing.

I would NEVER recommend Dr Spatz she is cold and uncaring. You can see the dread in her face.

I always speak very highly of Dr. Spatz at the orthopedic office or at the hospital where she performed surgery each of my hands for carpal tunnel. I have come back to doctor's beds because the issues I'm having with my spine
