Additional Information
I have been practicing for 53 years.
I have known Dr. Spector for many, many years and he is the best for quick ACCURATE diagnosis of any physical ailments.
great doctor
Dr. Spector is one of the primary physicians I have encountered in my adult life. ( informative , caring and easy to talk to)
Dr. Spector is a very dedicated person to his profession. My husband did have a problem when he contacted the office because his big toe had swelled up. He was told by the receptionist to go to [...] as they couldn't give him an appointment. He called back because the problem reoccurred within 2 weeks and they never responded for over three days. Dr. Spector told us when we explained this to him on our visit [...] to never accept that from a receptionist. He said we must insist that they put us through to him. He said he would never tell a patient to go somewhere else as that is why he is here to take care of his patients.
Only good experiences or I would not have followed him from one practice to another.
I've been with Dr Spector for about 30 years, he's a great doctor however the wait time is not exceptable.
Dr. Spector is one of those old-school doctors that are hard to find these days. He takes the time to explain how diseases and the body works in laymen's terms and you never feel rushed or like you are taking up too much of his time with silly questions.
Have been with this provider for 25 years and always have confidence in him.
I left another hospital to continue my care with Dr. Spector at Temple. He treats his patients with great care and I did not find that with the physician that had replaced him at his last facility.
Dr.Harvey Spector is one of the Kindest, Most caring, Helpful, Loyal, Man I know!!!!! HE's been my family Doctor nearly 30 years!!!!! His Best guess... Is Waaaaaaaaay more on point then Most Doctors fact. I'd take his guess over most anytime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE has Helped me and my family through some very, very tough times in way of Medical Issues. My Sister would be dead today if it weren't for Dr.Spector. HE Has Helped me more times than I can count, I trust him COMPLETELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry I have never had any bad experience with this office
dr spector is the best!
Good experience.
Dr. Spector saw me in Dr. [...]'s absence. I was very pleased @ his care & follow up
