Dr. Paul Sponseller, MD

Dr Sponseller was very nice and professional. He was efficient and did a good job explaining. We were thrilled to get into him-best in the industry!

My 17 year old son recently fell and broke his wrist. Dr. Sponseller was personable, and we felt like we were in good hands the entire time. They were able to do a waterproof cast-making the start of summer a bit easier. Thank you for the great care.

You listened carefully and gave great guidance and advice to us. Answered all our questions. Highly recommended!

Dr. Sponseller is very thorough and always complete my son’s surgery with care. Very pleased.

Excellent MD! Gave our kid a new lease on life - a nice-looking straight leg, with minimally invasive treatment. Highly recommend!

Dr. Sponseller has been seeing my grand daughter since she was 15 months old. She is now 5 years old and he has been amazing. I’m very grateful that he took on her case.

Dr. Sponseller has followed my daughter from 4 months old. He is very caring and honest with us about what would be best for her. I trust him completely and wouldn’t have anyone else looking after her.

Before meeting Dr. Sponseller my son was apprehensive about his health condition, yet after meeting the Dr. he assured him that all be be well after the surgery. And yes my son feels better and does not stop mentioning the name of the good Dr. Sponseller, for helping him.

Again BIG THANK YOU FROM DIVINE!!!!!!

Dr. Sponseller is very kind with my 3yo granddaughter. And carefully explains things to us.

He was willing to see our 29 yr old special needs done even though his specialty is pediatric orthopedics. Then immediately upon coming in the room get he went to our son and checked his physical condition. So many times in our experience Drs. are not willing to see our son even though he is very small like a child....and often the Dr. won't even look at or touch our son.

Dr Sponseller has been taking care of my son with special needs and has been patient and caring... I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Sponseller was great! He was direct, thorough and very knowledgeable about our issue. He saw us immediately! Highly recommend him.

Very informative and kind.

We went to Dr. Sponseller after my child’s initial provider failed to intiate treatment, leading to a worsening of the scoliosis. Dr. Sponseller succeeded in stabilizing the curve and preventing what was a rapid road to surgery.

His staff gave me and my husband two different addresses and times for surgery. When you call his office no one answers, the message says they will return your call in 48 hours. They don’t, I called several times. For days and I only got one call back. We arrived on time and had to wait 5 hours for his surgery cause someone else showed up late. My sons surgery only took 15 minutes. They have made sure this is a memory for my son. Don’t go to this clown.

My daughter was scheduled to be a new patient of Dr. Sponseller. We made the appointment for 9/24/2018 at 12:45pm via phone, but when we arrived at the hospital, we were turned around because they said our appointment was on 9/27. However, we were asked if we wanted to wait until after 4pm because he was running 2 hours behind. Obviously, we were upset because I called out of work, and we drove 45 minutes to Johns Hopkins for this appointment. We decided to call and complain about it from the nu

I would NOT recommend Dr. Sponseller. We hold him responsible for our daughter's condition becoming much more severe. His approach was "let's observe" and he suggested this during her growth which is when scoliosis and kyphosis worsens.. Her condition did get much worse and when we returned I was surprised at his limited view on treatment and appalled by his poor communication lack and total lack of empathy for a teen struggling with a his diagnosis and limited options. Terrible.

My sons scoliosis was severe 111/85 and he has other complicated health problems. All his unique special needs were taken into consideration to make the surgery safe and successful. His correction is Amazing. Dr. Sponseller is the best of the best and he is very confident yet humble! Even other drs. at other hospitals we consulted with recommended him & expressed what a skilled surgeon he is.

Dr, Sponseller did an amazing job helping our son with Kyphosis surgergy - We would highly recommend him to anyone with a child dealing with a spinal deformity.

Dr. Sponseller was amazing with our 8-year old son who broke his elbow. He has such a calm, focused demeanor and answered all of our questions. We felt very comfortable working with him.
