Doctor Spinelli's staff is always warm and courteous. There is no doctor more professional than Doctor Spinelli. When I see Doctor Spinelli for different procedures he has always come up with a plan and executed it perfectly exceeding all expectations. I would highly recommend Doctor Spinelli.

He was an excellent surgeon and physician. His office staff was also great. This review is late due to my having issues with my health. Thanks so much to Dr. Spinelli for all he did to handle my condition and make me feel comfortable when I was truly scared out of my mind!

I went to see Dr. Henry Spinelli today and his staff was so incredibly friendly and warm. He was very professional, truthful and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him for any issues you may be having with your appearance. He will take the time to explain all your options and let you think about them before you make a decision. Most importantly he will explain all side affects if any. Which is extremely helpful. I was really nervous when I went and within minutes I felt very comfortable. Most of all he fixed my eye and made me feel and look beautiful. I am so happy I went

This doctor is dangerous because he does extra procedures that he should not be doing in the first place. This has then led to further complications which could've been avoided and him benefiting and collecting your money. There are several formal complaints on Dr. Spinelli, including on Ripoffreport.com-which he strategically tries to hide from the public on the Internet. Save yourself the hassle, and just avoid this doctor at all costs.

I have been disfigured and paralyzed on the left side of my face since undergoing surgery under Henry M. Spinelli. I have strabismus and have permanent double vision. Paid plenty, received nothing worthwhile. 2008 horror has continued to plague my life.

Terrible job on my husbands eyes. He had to go to another plastic surgeon who said his eyes could never be corrected perfectly. His eyes are scared and crooked.
