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.

Spare yourself some heartache. Don't go to Dr. Spoerke. For a medical professional, he seemed immature, and he was impatient and rude when I asked questions.

One of the worst experiences I've ever had with a doctor. Dr. Spoerke is unprofessional, aggressive, and insensitive. He didn't answer my questions and made me feel unimportant. He is arrogant and needs a serious personality adjustment. After witnessing his behavior, I now question his medical skills. I believe he's in the wrong business!

Dr Spoerke failed to remove an organ. When symptoms continued after surgery he was dismissive and ordered no further tests. He refused me pain medicine after surgery. He was upset that my family doctor ordered more tests. Months after the initial procedure a medical emergency arose due to the organ still being in place. During my second surgery a large post surgical hernia was discovered from the first procedure. I was billed for everything...
