Dr. Wesley Lynn Spruill, MD

Dr Spruill was up front with me and didn’t beat around the bush. Treatment plan was great. But didn’t give much relieved my pain. So he ordered a MRI . That where we are today.

I was treated by Dr. Spruill in 2018 and regret ever ever seeing him or his staff. This dr. Is very unprofessional, dishonest and uncaring. I would not recommend him to treat anyone. He does not listen and treated me like I was stupid. It appears he is only interested in milking the health insurance for all he can get. Also the nurses basically act the same. I finally stopped seeing him after more than a month. I contacted another doctor that properly diagnosed my condition that was quickly properly treated. I don't see how anyone could recommend this man.

This physician refuses to treat you for pain during the diagnosis process, preferring instead to refer you back to your GP, which wastes considerable time. In our specific instance, he did not know what to do upon receiving the MRI results, and referred to yet another doctor, while doing nothing for pain management. Complete waste of three weeks while in intense pain.

Dr. Spruill takes time to explain your diagnosis and options to treat your pain. He doesn't push pills....he provides real options. The office staff is also the best....friendly and helpful. I would defenetly go back.

I love Dr. Spruill and then work that he does. I would go to NO ONE but him for my back pain!!

Friendly assistants, but Dr. Spruill spends about a minute max doing your spinal injection. I wonder if they actually turn on the fluoroscopic machine to guide the needle into your spine? First one didn't help; went back for second one the next week - this time caudal (and was told they'd probably have to do a third at over 5K per procedure!) and now am much worse off than when I started. I will never go back (no pun intended). I hope he didn't inject the medication into the wrong place and cause this problem. And I saw the review about the medications and pharmaceutical reps - he prescribed a friend this "new" long acting muscle relaxant - a new Flexeril - so instead of taking 1 pill 3 times a day that would cost pennies, my friend's prescription cost over $900 for a month's worth. He had a coupon and insurance so he didn't have to pay too much, but people wonder why healthcare is so high, it's because of practices such as this!!

Very good ,four star

Waited three weeks for an mri approval that didn't need an approval from my insurance company. Then when I asked for medication for pain while I waited for my procedure, which took three weeks, he denied me pain medicine because he didn't want to be liable. He wouldn't answer my questions during my consultation, and acted annoyed when I kept stopping him from leaving the room to answer questions, he never sat down. His daily free lunches provided by his pharmaceutical reps makes sure his patients are test subjects for expensive new meds instead of writing a normal pain med prescription. He obviously just is worried about getting as many patients in and out as possible and not about there pain or quality of care. I hope they remove him from spine care, the people of Tuscaloosa deserve better than the monopoly of spine care in Tuscaloosa since there the only spine clinic and they know it too and is reflected in their care.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. If I could have given zero stars I would have. No bedside manner, no follow ups. I have been going for about 8 months and in all that time, I have seen the doctor about a total of 10 min. Plus, be prepared to wait. I have never gotten outta that place in under 3-4 hours.

I was referred to him from a med center. I just lost my pain management doctor due to him retiring. I have seen him twice now and both times he made me feel very uncomfortable. The first time I was getting an injection in my back and he was a complete butt head!! I looked past that because I thought maybe he was just having a bad day, but then when I saw him today he made me feel like I was a drug seeker. After I paid 300.00 to see him he decided to change my meds that I've been taking for over a year now and prescribe something that also cost 300.00. When I asked the nurse what I'm supposed do for my pain she said that he wasn't going to prescribe that. She acted like I take some hard drugs. They made me feel like crap! When I left I just sat in my car crying for about 30 minutes. Needless to say I will never go see him again and I do not recommend them to anyone.
