Dr. Spivak has actually been one of my best advocates he's like a superhero he knows of my current circumstances coming out of homelessness and dealing with in State matter dealing with a Social Security matter that regards that and so he's been phenomena when he always has been as long as I've known him
Just a great doctor feels like a friend and always listen to my concerns and my life care needs
Adam is what I would call a patient's doctor as opposed to a doctor's doctor. He listens to what you are saying and provides usable feedback. He talks with you - not at you. Because of this I trust he actually cares about me as a person.

Dr. Spivak was exceptional. He took extra time to listen and explain. I felt very comfortable and confident with him.
Dr. Spivak is thorough and easy to talk with.
I have already recommended the provider multiple times. They make access very easy, and still spend the time to answer questions. Unlike several doctored that you feel like a dollar sign I feel like my care is about me and not money.
