Very understanding, compassionate and thoughtful.
I was very pleased with my appointment with Dr Spruiell. He was thorough and took his time to make sure I knew exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. I have been in pain for weeks and he was sympathetic and helpful. Thank you.
Excellent Physician, Very concerned about his patients well being.
Three and a half months since my robot assisted lumbar fusion. I am doing great. At times I experience a level 2 or 3 discomfort...not pain...on a scale of 1 to 10. That's because of standing too long, riding, or getting in and out of car. As a preventative, I take 2 tylenol 2 times a day. Most times, I am not aware or thinking about my bac.
He did a wonderful job in correcting my back problem. Her realigned two vertebrae and my severe pain left me on the surgery table and I have not had a pain since. He is the best surgeon and he is kind, considerate, straight with you.
It’s nice to know that your in good hands with Dr Spruell
Very thorough! Done an excellent job at explaining my issue and reassuring me.
Dr. Spruiell is a very nice doctor. He doesn't push surgery. He takes it step by step 1st. He really cares about what is best for you, the patient.
Very thankful he will be doing my surgeries. Grateful that he saw me so quickly.
