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.

Apparently due to computer issues Dr Sphall thought I was in for annual physical when I had my last one [omitted] with Dr Sphall. If I was actally having an annual physical, I would expect to get out of my chair and onto the patient table. I came in specifically for uninary/bladder issue and was not prepared to bring up other issues. It wasn't until I ask about scheduling my next annual for [omitted] that he informed me we had just done a physical. If the insurance EOB declines payment because not 12 months since last physical, I will only pay $40 co-pay. I like Dr Sphall but apparently we were on different pages due to computer glitch.

Dr. Shpall only works a couple days/week, so recommending to others might have a caveat on how easy and quick he would be able to see them.
