Dr Spatola is an excellent caregiver. He is compassionate and focused on you when you visit, his listening skills are great and he takes time to have open and what I consider objective discussions with you about your health and well-being. I especially like chatting with him on a number of topics and just catching up . He makes you feel relaxed and truly cared for. His emotional intelligence is far advanced in comparison to a lot of doctors I have visited with over the years. A true asset to Cleveland Clinic. In truth if he leaves I may not visit Cleveland Clinic anymore as the service and care in the past has been somewhat spotty.

My goal was to find a primary physician that was respectfully of my time. Wait time was a minimum of 2 hours and all he did was sit behind his laptop and rarely made eye contact. I called Cleveland Clinic in Wellington to see if they could serve as my primary. The answer was an enthusiastic yes. The very next day I had an appointment for 3:20 pm. By 4 pm I'm on the way home with a new primary Dr with an actual personality.

Care provider somewhat dismissed my secondary concern because he only had 20 min to discuss whatever i needed to discuss, so I needed to decide which of my concerns was more important than the other. Thought this was not professional
