I’m a stroke survivor dealing with this complex condition. Dr. Spiveck is caring, meticulous in treatment and has a positive uplifting contagious personality. I left his office today uplifted and positive about my future including travel plans to Norway and Russia. I am so very pleased I am his patient

Does not do follow up, does not follow protocol in asking for blood tests to determine the medication levels or side effects I almost lost my liver due to his careless attitude

Dr Spivack makes me feel that he is aware of my medical issue, and by his questions and testing is giving me the best care possible based on my current medical condition. He has a wonderful sense of humor that leaves me with not only confidence in his care, but a smile when I leave his office! We all need that kind of connection with our fellow man!

Very moody and doesn't like to answer questions if I question his opinion about your medicine or treatment. In that regard arrogant .

Dr. Spivack was my neurologist for many years, until he moved to NV. I followed him several times as he changed offices. I'm devastated he isn't here in WI anymore b/e I seriously don't trust any other neurologist. I have the utmost respect for him and his practice. He helped me with seizures and migraines and took the time to make sure my meds were working and I was in good health. He is by far the best neurologist available. Patients in NV are so lucky to have him.

I had a botched epidural during the delivery of my son, and had spinal headaches for months. I saw Dr. Spivack in the hospital- by the way, he's had to switch hospitals often because his patients and co-workers hate him. Now he's in Nevada misdiagnosing other people I'm sure like he misdiagnosed me. I was having horrible headaches. I called his office and they told me I could see him in a month. I developed a rash from a medication he gave me, and I called his office and never got a call back. I work in a hospital and he is by far the worst physician I've ever seen.

He gave me wrong diagnosis, wanted to put me on medication for life. Luckily I went for a second opinion and I was told that Dr. Spivack's diagnosis was wrong and I do not need any medication. Avoid this doctor, and if you already went to him, get a 2nd opinion.

Dr Spivak took the time to really listen and he has figured out how to manage my migranes. I almost never get them anymore and when I do, now thanks to Dr. Spivak I can control the pain. The only problem is now I can't find Dr. Spivak. Where are you doctor? I need you! I really don't want to see anyone else.

Dr. Spivack is a wonderful doctor that I have had for over 10 years. He has helped me a great deal, where others have not. The only problem is Dr. Spivack where have you gone??
