Patient Reviews
Jan 30, 2021
Believe all of the rave reviews! If I could give Dr. Spence 10 stars I would! I called Stanford after being diagnosed with breast cancer and was assigned to meet with Dr. Spence. The first thing I did was go online to see what I could find out about her. I only found 5-star reviews. I was skeptical, thinking surely someone has something bad to say about her because no one is perfect. Well, I am here to say that the day I was assigned Dr. Spence is the day I won the lottery! Her medical expertise, knowledge, and credentials certainly place her at the top of her profession. But her ability to communicate medical information in an understandable and compassionate manner with a steadying and easy confidence places her head and shoulders above the rest. She is truly caring and takes an interest in your well being, beyond your medical issues. Dr. Spence is a treasure and if you're fortunate to be her patient consider yourself blessed.
