Dr. Stephen Spadafore provided excellent care, a steroid injection, and described potential alternative procedures for future treatment.

05/12/2025

I had a wonderful experience with this provider. He listened, examined, explained, cared, and made sure I was comfortable. He expressed a need for follow up and said if I needed anything at all, to call him.

05/09/2025

I felt very comfortable immediately. The provider and his staff asked questions and actively listened to my responses. He lived up to my expectations and I appreciated his frank diagnosis.

05/04/2025

Very good. He takes the time to explain just what your follow up care is going to be.

04/23/2025

04/17/2025

The doctor was very knowledgeable and seemed concerned about my shoulder. He has ordered additional tests, which I have never seen a doctor do this before. He did not push me off. He took time with me and made sure I understood everything.

04/10/2025

Very good.

04/03/2025

Really appreciate Dr. Spadafore and his ability to effectively communicate with me regarding my situation. He and his team are exceptional!

03/22/2025

Experience (each time) has been very good. First visit, I think he and I both jumped to a diagnosis that wasn't complete. When PT and exercise didn't alleviate the pain and I came back asking for an MRI, he was very responsive, MRI diagnosed the full problem with right knee and treatment for both knees has progressed from there.

03/21/2025

Very Friendly

03/20/2025

Great listener & communicator. Understand where pain originates from - injection is exactly where it needs to be. Always a great experience. So happy to be pain free.

03/06/2025

Only been to provider 1x. I would say excellent if I had more experience w/them to say so. I have had family report Dr. Spadafore was great with the procedure & care.

02/28/2025

He was very empathetic and reassuring that my running career is not over. He looked at options and made a plan to make sure I could continue my active lifestyle. Very impressed. Thank you.

02/21/2025

Though he's never operated on me, based on the interaction I had with him, I'd trust his judgement. There was an opportunity for him to schedule a surgery that would have made him more money, but he gave me his honest opinion, and recommended treatment that didn't require surgery or recovery time. This is the same ethical standard I use with my customers. He has my respect.

02/13/2025

Very good. I went for a second opinion.

02/13/2025

Dr. Spadafore was excellent. I was referred from ER and expected to have a battery of tests ordered then consultation etc before anything was done. Dr. Spadafore ordered x-rays then did an ultrasound! Satisfied there were no broken bones, he began treatment right away! The pain in my knee dissipated almost Immediately. Today I have been able to walk with very little pain. Fantastic service!
