Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

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

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

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

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

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Spence?
Cold, calloused, rude, cruel bedside manner, completely uninformed. Accused my mother of "faking" when she presented with severe dystonia from a well-documented reaction to an FDS black-boxed medication. Isolated her in a separate room without contact with nurses, when she could not walk without assistance. Lied on medical reports. Never conducted physical exam. My mother's condition was diagnosed by a real doctor after she was released by the hospital (without treatment) and she was put on a basic rehydration and magnesium regimen that would have cancelled out the reaction if given by Spence. If you are DYING, you are better off staying home than seeing Spence. She is qualified to so much as put a band-aid on an elbow, if you're even lucky enough for her to believe that you're bleeding.
