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.

Highly recommended & totally satisfied
When we moved to the City of St. Louis, we were looking to change positions and were recommended to Dr. Spewak from teachers and the principal of our children’s school. He’s been our Children’s physician for several years. We have never had a problem getting in, he’s always been attentive and kind. He’s taken time to explain his observations & diagnoses. No complaints.

Dr. Spewak saved my son's life 36 years ago when he was born premie and very, very ill. He continued his phenomenal care of both my children for many, many years later and now takes care of both my grandchildren. I cannot thank him enough.

Dr. Spewak has been our family's pediatrician for many years. He is a kind, gentle man. He listens to your concerns, always takes an appropriate amount of time with you and knows his patients well. His manner with kids is amazing.

Dr. Spewak has been caring for our four children since their births starting in 2002. He and his partners have done a phenomenal job in the care of our autistic first born, our 24-week micro-preemie and our 37.5 week identical twins. His staff is friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We feel comfortable calling them with any medical issue that may arise, small or large. He has a friendly, empathetic bedside manner and my shy kids love him. I highly recommend Dr. Spewak and his partners.
