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 doctor!
Dr. Sooo has successfully dealt with my knee pain for nearly 20 years. When it came time to replace it, that went just as smoothly. 18 months later and barely a scar. Wouldn’t trust my bones to anyone else!

Dr Spoo is a doctor does not have empathy towards his patients. He is cold and rude. He does not acknowledge, feel or respond to another's suffering. It’s better to drive a little to find better care.

Horrible bedside manner. Dr is very rude and nasty, shouted at me in the exam room. Also watched him being mean with the staff at the hospital. I don’t ever want to see him again.

I have seen so many ortho surgeons and all declined to do anything but injections. Dr. Spoo did surgery and I feel relief already. Love his Assistant Katlin.

Dr. Spoo has successfully replaced both of my knee joints. Surgery was very successful as was the follow up physical therapy. He has also treated two broken feet! He is terrific and I have recommended him to a number of my friends and acquaintences.

I like Dr. Spoo because he fixed my right knee and my daughter's broken ankle. He did a fine job on both. But I had a 9:30 appointment and didn't see Dr. Spoo until 10:50. The last 45 minutes of waiting was in an examining room with the door shut and no word from anyone about why it was taking so long. It felt a lot like solitary confinement.

If you want a McDr. This is your man. He only spent 11 min with me and even after i told him what didint work on me and that was exactly what he gave me. To make matters worse told me to come back in 6 weeks. If this is how he treats any more of his clients other then me he shouldnt be allowed to be a dr. or change his hame to McDr. Spoo
