Anthony Spruell, PA

This man sent me home from the emergency department with active appendicitis two times. I came in one day and he told me nothing is wrong, same story the second day. I could barely walk- my appendix was rupturing. It took my OBGYN to call the surgeon and send me back to the hospital to get my appendix removed STAT. When I came back the next month with a non functioning gallbladder after having multiple gallbladder attacks, he had the AUDACITY to tell me that I was seeking another surgery and he believes nothing is wrong and surgery was my end goal. Who would want another surgery just for fun? My surgeon then admitted me and ran another test and my gallbladder was not functioning and I was sent to emergency surgery. Shame on this man for gaslighting me and the other patients in the emergency room. Go anywhere else but abrazo arrowhead where he is located.

Worst PA I have ever come across and I’m an RN.In school you learn to believe what the pt says her pain level is and to look for nonverbal pain cues. Anthony missed it all. He really needs to go back to school and learn better bedside manners. Not every pain pt is a drug seeker!
