Patient Comments
I like Dr. Harvey Spector DO. He's honest and to the point. He will help you and he listens to your concerns. If he feels there is something a miss he'll either figure it out or find the answers or suggest that it's irrelevant and nothing to worry about. I trust his judgement and his expertise. It's why I return each time. He's very good at what he does. He is compassionate and fair and impartial. He doesn't judge and he treats me like I'm almost family or a friend. I recommend him and Temple Health to everyone I speak to.
Dr Spector is excellent. He listens and I feel comfortable talking with him and confident in the decisions he makes for my healthcare
He is a wonderful caring physician. He takes time to explain everything, and I highly recommend him
Dr Spector provided a layman's explanation of my health condition which allows me to make corrections to my diet with understanding.
Dr. Spector is the most competent, compassionate, and professional GP I have ever had
