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.

Great visit with Dr. Spomar
Today was the first time I have been in to see Dr Spomar, and I have nothing but good things to say. Front office was good, didn't have to wait - but the most important thing was that Doc was very interested and attentive and wasn't trying to talk me in to getting surgery. In fact, he was very honest and straightforward and said that if he was me that would not do surgery at this point. So I appreciated him putting my health before his profits. He was super friendly, took the time to thoroughly review my situation. I would highly recommend him

My appointment from start to finish was done in a timely manner. The office staff was all friendly and the building was really clean. Dr Spomar and his P.A. Dr Sullenberg are both very nice and they took the time to thoroughly answer every question I asked and both have a great bed side manner...aka they look you in the eye when talking to you and never try to rush you out the door.

Dr. Spomar is the best! I had been in pain for years, could hardly walk or stand upright, and was scared to have surgery. He said I'd walk out of the hospital after surgery and he didn't lie!

Before: Dr. Spomar, I could hardly sit, stand, walk, rest, lay down, get up! Everyday ins and outs were a painful challenge! The things I took for granted! I could barely take care of myself! After: Dr. Spomar, I can sit, walk, stand, rest lay down and get up! His team is phenomenal! I can’t thank God enough, for Dr. Spomar!

I was greeted with polite office staff. I was taken to the examining room before my appt time the MA was very friendly. Dr. Shomar was very friendly and explained what was going on with my neck and I feel confident he will be able to help.

Truly words cannot express what a wonderful surgeon Dr. Spomar is. This man knows his stuff he has completed 2 neck fusion surgeries on me C3- C4 and C5-C6 and getting ready to complete a 3rd one on my back. Had back pain for years no Dr. could tell me what was wrong asked to be referred to Dr Spomar since he did such an wonderful job on my neck surgery he did test and found I have pars defect with Spondylolysis with slippage. There is no other surgeon I want working on me other than Dr. Spomar.

A great, kind & compassionate doctor and a wonderful staff! I had worsening spinal stenosis with sciatica limiting my functioning in day to day living. I could only gather enough strength to make it through my work day. I felt like I was in a corner with no way out. He explained how he could help with a minimally invasive surgery (laminotomy), L4L5. This was accomplished as an outpatient and I went home the same day. Thank you Dr. Spomar for giving me my life back!

This Doctor has fixed me twice. Once after 25 years of firefighting and emergency medical services. Lifting large people and carrying them down stairs or fighting fires will beat your body up. By the time he took care of me I could barley walk. After he did his magic I was walking without difficulty. The second time was due to a car accident. This time was MUCH worse. The pain and problems walking were unbearable.He again worked his magic. 5 weeks out of surgery and I'm feeling much better.

1 year and 7 months of terrible pain, and the 7th doctor I had visited and he sets down and says "you have a pinched nerve there" something every single doctor had either refused to recognize so they could sell their "pain therapy" BS or such 1.5 months later I can use my leg again. So many thanks to you

I am currently seeing Dr Spomar. (Post opt) He did surgery on me for a pinched nerve. I was having so much pain in my arm and numbness in my arm and hand. After my surgery it is gone and was gone as soon as I woke from my surgery. My recovery has been great. Dr Spomar is a very caring doctor that explains everything to you. Everyone in his office is very nice. I had to give him a hug before leaving the hospital. It felt do good to be pain free. Thank you Dr Spomar for your excellent care.
