Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Spellman is an outstanding psychiatrist who is patient, kind and goal oriented,. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a physician for themself or their client's.

I was helped tremendously by Dr. Spellman and that is why I feel it is a moral imperative for me to say so. Dr. Spellman helped me tremendously with her Focusing therapy and also with a minimum amount of medicine. She truly cares.

I started seeing Dr Spellman around the summer of 2014. I began searching for a therapist, particularly a psychiatrist, shortly after marrying my wife. I knew there were areas in my life that I needed to address, in order to give our marriage the best chance of success. I found Dr Spellman, called her, left a message, and soon after she called me back. Talking with her on the phone, even, reassured something in me that my decision to call Dr. Spellman, was a very good decision. A real blessing.

Dr. Spellman is an excellent psychiatrist. I was greatly helped and received a lot of insight into my condition. Dr. Spellman"s insight into adjuvant ot alternative treatments is very encouraging and proved helpful indeed. In the years since my sessions at her office, I find that what I learned there is still useful and I do use the information and insight Dr Spellman gave me. If you have the opportunity, go there

Really a smart Doctor who helped me a great deal. I had a horrible time with mood before I saw Dr. Spellman and she used her knowledge of medicine and genetics to find the right Rx for me, and she also was very supportive in therapy.

I've have been a patient of Dr. Spellman for nine months. The positive impact she has had in my life is truly remarkable. Dr. Spellman is a caring and compassionate person. She is truly dedicated to her profession and also to my well-being. She makes herself available anytime, night or day. Her expert knowledge of medications, their interaction with other medications, and how the body metabolizes them has been instrumental in my treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Spellman to anyone in need.
