“Excellent care for our child”
Dr. Spivak has worked with our child since he was two. He was always focused on our child's well being. Scheduled appointments at appropriate intervals and made sure that he was progressing in the right ways. He always kept us informed and took time to test all options before having our child go under for a procedure. He continued to follow-up on our child until he was clear and all issues were no longer present.

Dr. Spivak is one of the best doctors we've seen. Immediately diagnosed the problem and helped my daughter feel more comfortable. Great bedside manner and spends as much time as you need discussing things.

“Excellent Dr!”
Truly a top notch physician who cares about his patients. When my daughter was falling off the charts in weight and growth we didn't know who to turn to. Our pedi referred us to Dr. Spivak. He sat with us and came up with a plan and properly diagnosed her. We followed through with all of his recommendations and thank goodness our child is back on track! We couldn't be happier with her progress and were able to get her gerd under control. Thank you Dr. Spivak!

“very nice experience”
From the very warm welcome to the time dedicated to my son, the attention into details and the precision of the explanations. I really felt that all concerns or doubts on the diagnosis were covered and taking care of. Follow up were consistent and re-insuring.
Thank you Doctor
