Dr Spencer is excellent. All the Receptionists are friendly and very helpful with appointments and paper work. The waiting area is kept clean and there is a short wait time. He keeps you informed about available procedures and techniques.

Doctor and PA were knowledgeable, professional and helpful. The receptionists seem unhappy. Seriously, not a warm reception in sight. Pronounced my name incorrectly several times, even after being corrected, and even spelling it wrong.

Drs. Lent and Spencer are the BEST! They've repaired two rotator cuffs, replaced a hip and a knee. Years of pain are gone. They patiently explained all procedures and followed up thoroughly. Office was very professional and I never had to wait -- all appointments were on time. Highly recommended!
