Dr. Spears is a one n a million knowledgeable, very kind and patient and sincere in his caring about his patients. I have seen him for over 20 years and he has been here for me no matter what. He shows in his care of me that nobody could not be more concerned about giving u the best care possible. I know if it wasn’t for his sincere kind way of dealing with my bipolar I would have never survived the last twenty years. The other psychiatrists I saw before him mostly were not nearly the great person and human being not just doctor. I owe him my life and the help he gives me to want to keep trying to find happiness in life and peace. He has been a saint with me and I would feel lost without him.

Dr Spears is everything a good psychiatrist should be. Caring, knowledgable and professional. He has been an intergral part of my healing from addiction and depression.

Dr. Spears is a wonderful, kind, caring doctor. You will be very fortunate if you can get in to see him because I'm not sure if he is always able to accept new patients. I was lucky to get him as a Dr. He is always on time yet you do not feel rushed during your appointment time. Highly recommend!!

You would be quite lucky to be seen by this Dr. He has a warmth and compassion that I have yet to see in any Dr. in a similar capacity. His insights are extremely helpful and applicable as applied to daily life. He never makes you feel rushed or that you must hurry through your appointment. He is genuine, kind and caring, which give you such comfort and feel like he really understands your issues. I cannot recommend him highly enough. His staff is also friendly and wonderful.
