I have already recommended Dr. Spann to others. He's very kind and informative. Doesn't make you feel like he's in a rush to get you out of the room.

Dr. Spann has a very calm spirit which puts a patient and family at ease. He is not pushy. Dr. Spann did not rush though the appointment - he happily answered all of our questions and didn't act like any of them were silly
