What patients have to say

*****
It was so extremely nice to be treated with kindness and true concern. Every single person on the staff carried this attitude, from the receptionist, the medical assistant and Dr Spenceri. I had already experienced another Dermatologist office previously and there wasn't even close as to how I was treated there. Dr Spenceri gave me much more detailed information by far. She made me feel like I was now in the best hands.

Skin cancer is a serious matter but Dr. Spenceri and her staff made dealing with this a calm, competent, and caring situation. Everyone was so cheerful, and made me feel heard and seen. After the Mohs surgery, my wound was not healing as fast as I had expected. They stuck with me and helped explain why this could be, and what we could do together to move things along. Finally, mother nature has taken hold and I am happy to be nearly healed - and, more importantly, cancer free.

I've seen Dr Spenceri twice now. Each visit went very well considering the reason why I was there. Her and her staff are very professional and knowledgeable and make you feel at ease. Dr Spenceri has a great bedside manner and explains what she is doing as she is doing it, no surprises!! Would highly recommend Dr Spenceri and her staff to anyone that is in need of their services!!
