Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

This is complicated for me to write.
On one hand I’m mostly happy with my results, on the other I feel nearly traumatized from my experience.
In short, Dr. Spivak is a good surgeon and horrible at running a business.
He often runs eight hours behind. He does two to three surgeries a day and the person set to go next is often waiting for… hours.
The reason he runs so far behind is because he leaves the surgery room multiple times throughout the procedure to do consultations for potential patients and to do follow ups.
So you are left alone in a room, drugged, calling for nurses to help you. You are awake the entire time and aware of what’s happening.
There is a heavy rotation of nurses. He can’t seem to keep them around. They speak rudely to you. One told me it was okay that she was rude, because I wouldn’t remember. I remember.
Dr Spivak continually cancels the day before and morning of. I’ve driven to the office to be told he wasn’t coming two different times.
I know several people who have used him. No one has bad results, but no one feels good about their experience
He also *forgot* to do a portion of my friend’s procedure. (Bra roll.) She has a bulge on her back worse than before the procedure from removing fat around it but leaving that spot. When she was set to meet with him to discuss next steps, he didn’t show up. She also said that during her procedure, Spivak couldn’t find a nurse to help him, so he had her boyfriend, who was in the room with her, hold up her arms with go gloves on, while Spivak did the liposuction/soft squlpt.
He’s just… a hot mess.
