Hadar Spivak M.D. Bariatrics Bariatric Center
I have gone to 2 of Dr. Spivak's seminars, and both times he took the time to personaly speak with anyone that need to ask him questions. He answered all my questions for me and was very caring and has a wonderful smile making you feel at ease. The second time I met him I was even more at ease.
His staff has been very nice and helpful in all questions I have been asking of them. I call everyweek asking about the insurance company, if they have heard from them they know me well now. She is very helpful and caring.
They have aftercare program.
They were honest about the risk of surgery I had looked it up on the computer and he explained the samething.
I have not had surgery yet still waiting for my insurance company to let us know.But I have faith in God and Dr. Spivak.
I know that competence and bedside manners are both very very important. May God be with each and everyone of us and the Doctors.
This is a surgeon like no other, he is amazing. through the time having not only getting to know him in the siminar he was very informative and caring. I first went to him about 9 months ago having Cigna Health Care and was denied. His staff not only help me through the appeal process but was very caring even though it didn't go through. So then 8 months later I came back to see Him with United Health care and a week later i was APPROVED and a great feeling that was knowing I was on my way to a New life and this great staff of his made it happen..2 days counting and I am nervous and ready thanks to Dr. Spivak and his staff..I will inform you all of the out come.
My first impression of Dr. Spivak was that he is a very knowledgable man with a good bedside manner and the more I learn/ see/ hear about him that impression just grows. The office staff is wonderful, Shirley has been especially helpful and patient with any questions or concerns I have had. I have yet to see anything that I don't like about him. From what I have heard and read he has a good aftercare in place. He was very open about the risk of the surgery and was very responsive to any questions or concerns I had. I thank God for Dr. Spivak. Through God using him and guiding his hands Dr. Spivak has gave me a new and improved life here on earth. I pray that God continues to bless and guide Dr. Spivak.
Dr. SPivak is the best! He is very patient and kind. I was referred to him by previous surgery patients and I would highly recommend him to anyone.
The office staff is very nice and very knowledgeable. He has a nurse who has been through the surgery so she is a wealth of knowledge as well.
Dr. Spivak's fees include 1 year post op care. He highly recommends post op care and group support meetings.
He has a wonderful bedside manner and is very involved in your care at the hospital. His surgery competence is first rate and he was a pleasure to work with!
My initial impression of Dr. Spivak was positive and has remained so. His office staff have been very professional and caring.
Patients must know that Dr. Spivak requires future patients to attend one time the monthly orientation he holds, prior to an initial appointment.
I am a Medical Social Worker by profession. I would rate Dr, Spivak's approach both prior to, during surgery and post-op as excellent.
His bedside manner was very caring, cordial and informative. He is one of the most competent surgeons I have met in my life.
Liked him very much
his staff is wonderfull,
I have done a lot of research and Dr. Spivak seems to be doing everything that is recommended by the "experts"
The office staff seem to be nice. I have not had enough experience to say whether I recommend Dr. Spivak and his staff. I might be wrong but there does not seem to be dietician on his staff. I will be able to share more once I have the sugery for the Lap band.
Dr. Spivak is awesome, both surgical competence, and bedside manner are terrific. Staff is very helpful. I would recommend Dr. Spivak to anyone considering WLS.
Dr.Spivac is friendly, informative, and profesional my impression of him has not changed overtime, his office staff is efficient, profesional.
He is from Israel & studied at Tel-Aviv University which was important to me for personal reasons. He covered the risks of surgery in the lecture he offers that is required before he will operate on you. He also did a brief overview of the procedure at our initial consultation.
Overall Dr. Spivac has been a good Dr. I would rate him to be a 7 out of 10. But he is the only Dr. I have had any experience with, so my judgement is limited.
