Dr. Spring and I discussed my progress with c pap therapy which has been excellent. I mentioned an ongoing bronchitis and a probable return to Dr. [Name] for another course of meds. Dr. Spring said he could save me the trip and trouble and so he did and I am immediately improved.

This whole office visit was very positive
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Dr Spring for the first time today. I'd been a patient of Dr [Name] for 35 years until his retirement in August, and his level of care and compassion was exemplary. If feared I'd not be able to have that reareassurance again. Being an asthmatic, it's so important to feel safe and Dr Spring immediately put me at ease. He's knowledgeable, caring, understanding and extremely approachable. I am beyond grateful for the privilege of his care.

Nothing to complain. This doctor shows all knowledge about my problem and I feel confident with him. The clinic must be proud to have him in their staff. All the rest of the staff are working very well and they are very professional.
