This was my annual visit. The visit was very business like with no real conversation about how I am doing. The exam although thorough was done in a cursory manner She was excellent in pointing out a couple of appointments that I had not kept

Dr. Spencer is an amazing doctor. She makes you feel seen and heard as an actual person and not just as the next task to get through (like my last PCP did). She asked about my life overall and not just medical issues and she is very easy to talk to, never felt judgmental.

Dr. Spencer is EXCELLENT and she is exactly the type of provider MGB should be doing everything in their power to retain. It's very discouraging seeing the rate at which primary care providers are fleeing the system for concierge medicine. The brand of primary care at MGB is flailing as a result.

I've been very happy with Dr. Spencer. As the time has gone on that I've been seeing her, she's become very aware of the different aspects. And she's even great when I ask a question that doesn't apply to her field. She tells me what to do and then encourages me to contact different doctors. So she's excellent. Thank you.

Dr Spencer has been my PCP since she joined and created the Bullfinch practice. I have been extremely happy with all of her care and recommendations of whatever testing she has ordered. I was happy to see that Dr. Spencer has become the Director of this ever growing practice and she continues to recruit excellent doctors into this group. In cases where Dr. Spencer is not available on short notice I have been assigned to other doctors in the practice who have been excellent.

Hi. Dr. Spencer, who I saw, is not my normal provider. It was an urgent visit, and she asked all the questions and got down to things, ordered an X-ray and blood work, and then got back to us right away to say we needed to go to an emergency room. And she really worked hard to reach us, and she was just really great. So I just wanted to say that.
