Dr. Sherman Sprik, MD

I won't go back to the office. Waited almost an hour late appt. They were swamped. His nurse was rude/rushed. I tried to tell her what led me to the office she blew me off. Said I could tell her later. Never had a chance. Dr. was nice but rushed. No in-depth history. Ran tests (negative) then ordered cat scan. Yearly, in winter I get sinus infections and fluid/pain in the ear. Fluid in ear 3 weeks before appt. had no fluid in ear, but, symptomatic for about 8 months. I asked why the cat scan. He said he was looking for infection. That is all he said. Results were negative but nurse told me to go dentist as he talked to me about TMJ at appt. He didn't talk to me at all about that. When I said that she said its in his notes (although he was going between me and other patient during my appt). Then she said "well I'm telling you now!" That was it. I had questions about what I saw in the CT report, but, I will not go back there again. Going elsewhere.

Not impressed, Dr. Seemed preoccupied with anything but what was right in front of him. Then I was supposed to get a prescription, it never went through. Called Dr. Office, they couldn't give me a straight answer. Then they called me the next day, said it was electronically sent. Go to pick it up and it isn't there. Called Dr. Office again, got an answering machine, still waiting for my prescription!

He was wonderful! I needed urgent help with and ear problem that an urgent care clinic completely botched. I couldn't hear and was in intense pain. Dr. Sprich squeezed me into his schedule as a new patient and I walked out of his office pain free and with my hearing restored.

As a patient of several years, I've received very bad news and good news from Dr. Sprik. I like his straightforward, frank, and honest approach to medicine. His care is second to none. If you desire wonderful care, surgery, and honest prognoses, this is the professional you want.

I wouldn't trust this doctor to do anything! Just a warning, he is a nice guy but very old and out of date with his skills. Used antiquated techniques on my daughter and several times appeared quite confused on what he was doing and what the next step was in the procedure. At one point he also had a discussion with his old nurse about what to do next because he didn't know. Very scary. Like I said, he is a nice guy, but he should have retired years ago.

I had my surgery on Monday, Dr. Sprik was so kind and reassuring that everything was going to be all right. Afterward he told me it was one of the worst obstructions he had seen with severe congestion. I had the packing removed yesterday, that is a very very painful procedure. For the next 45 mins I almost fainted 3 times. Dr. Sprik took me back himself in a wheelchair and made sure that I was back to normal before letting me leave his office. I had very minimal bleeding, no black eyes
