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.

Excellent Service from all
His staff from check in, prep, and post-op were great. He spoke with me before and afterwards and gave me great confidence that the procedure would go well--and it did!

Dr Spencer is an awesome doctor. I've seen him for a few years and he is the most caring person. He also fixed my problem that no other Dr could.

Dr. Spencer is one amazing GI doctor! Dr. Spencer gives you all the time in the world, he listens and answers any and all questions. He is very thorough and his approach is conservative when needed but also knows when and if there is an urgency. The clinic has a patients portal where you can find all your past treatments, notes and results and also a messaging center to write directly to the Doctor. Dr. Spencer reads all the messages and promptly gives an answer the same day (for the most part) Getting to see him is pretty easy and his staff are very well trained., Dr. Spencer really does care about his patients. I've seen many GI Doctors and Dr. Spencer is one of the best! I highly recommend without any hesitation.

This review has to do with scheduling and not Dr. Spencer per se. But because it reflects on his approach to patient care, it is still relevant. I tried but was told no to an office visit to discuss a sudden and severe stomach pain. The office's message was: do your upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in 1.5 months and we'll see you after. No procedure, no doctor. What happened to care patient care? Procedures must be more profitable than office visits.

A patient that never was in CA – Feb 20, 2019

Dr. Spencer followed up on my father’s conditions most consistently. My father felt great and was very thankful for Dr. Spencer. We totally trust Dr. Spencer and we thank God for having Dr. Spencer as my father’s gastroenterologist. Words alone cannot describe our gratitude to Dr. Spencer! Thank you, Dr. Spencer for giving us our dad back-healthier than before and of course polyps free.
