Dr. Spanik listens. She is engaged in conversation. I hope she never leaves this practice.
All was great.
i was very satisfied with everything and she answered all my questions
she is a very good doctor
Dr. Spanik is a very caring, thoughtful doctor. Listen to me when I talk and gives advice.
Dr. Spanik listens to my health questions and answers them, but she also listens to what is going on in my life and how that is affecting my mental and physical health.
I think she is one of the best Doctors on the Oswego area. She is very caring. and very supportive.
The provider is AMAZING! She always makes me feel good - she's a great listener and really takes my word into consideration when discussing medication, lifestyle, etc.
it's always a pleasure seeing Dr Spanik
Dr Spanik is awesome. she always checking my health. Even she messaged me on mothers day via mychart to check my health status after my surgery. So glad to have her as a our family doctor.
Dr Spanik is the best doctor that my wife and i have. we are so lucky to have her.
no bad rxperienced whatsoever Dr Spanik is a very respectful and caring perdon.
Provider was very kind, understanding, and helpful. Have never had any negative experiences.
Dr. Spanik is a very good listener and very thorough. When I ask a question she'll sometimes ask what I think and I like that.
I actually had a telephone appointment, the nurse called first, then the doctor. Is was actually nicer than having to come in.
Although Zoom didn't work (the system was overloaded), Dr. Spanik and I were able to have a phone visit that worked quite well. Dr. Spanik is always well prepared as she reviews my medical records before each visit. She is very knowledgeable about blood pressure medications and I feel very comfortable taking her advice.
They are are always a great team and get my whole family and concerns.
Dr. Spanik always treats me with her utmost concern. I can tell when I'm being "run through the mill" in doctor visits and I've never once felt that way with Dr. Spanik.
Even though I've moved to Downers Grove, I'll keep going to see Dr. Spanik. She's one of the only physicians I've worked with that trusted my own concerns and needs, especially with my annual bouts of seasonal bronchitis. Her concern for my mental health was also something that I never got from previous physicians.
This is the second time that I've seen Dr. Spanik. I choose her to be my primary doctor after the one I had moved. My second visit with Dr. Spanik was thru zoom due to covid-19. it was a very pleasant experience.
Dr. Spanik listens attentively to my overall health and concern. By far she is a compassionate and very good doctor for me.
Dr. Spanik is always professional and caring.
Dr. Spanik is fabulous, listens to your concerns and is very thorough.
Dr. Spanik is an excellent doctor! she is very easy to talk to. My whole family loves her. She is very dedicated and very thorough.
Very happy with Dr. Spanik and her associates, since this problem occurred during the COVID19 outbreak we did a telephone conference/visit and it worked very nicely.
Have always had a good experience with Dr.Spanik and her associates.
great telemedicine experience
Dr. Spanik is excellent. But I was left a message ahead of time that her "practice was closed". This confused me and I worried that she was no longer was at the office. She is the ONLY reason I and my other family members have stayed with Advocate after Dreyer changed. If she goes, all 4 family members will go too.
Advocate-Dreyer wasn't as good as Dreyer. Advocate Aurora Health is nearly unbearable. Dr. Spanik is the only reason we haven't all left.
dr spanik always takes the time I need.
I like Dr Spanik, but it can be hard to get in to see her.
I've been her patient for a long time, I wouldn't want to see anyone else! She's good.
Dr. Spanik spent all the time i needed to discuss my medical issues. I didnt feel rushed and she truly listened to me. Very rare this day and age.
Great visit.
As always Dr. Spanik was very professional and offered good advice. I am sincerely grateful that she has taken myself and my Family on as patients when we moved to this area. She has been great to work with.....THANK YOU Dr. Spanik.
Dr. Spanik and staff are very good and helpful.
All good.
Very polite and easy to talk with.
Always a pleasure to meet with everyone at this office.
A+++.
Doctor Spanik is the best! She really cares about her patients.
I always have good information and feel my health concerns are addressed
So far I have only had good experience and feel doctor Spanik is aware of my concerns and will follw up if anything out of the ordinary develops.
Dr. Spanik is always looking for ways of helping me with my headaches. Vastly improved since we found meds that work. She is always emphasizing good health through, diet, sleep & exercise.
This was my first visit with Dr. Spanik since our original meet and greet. I found her very professional, knowledgeable and willing to listen. I didn't feel rushed during my appointment and she provided the information that I requested. Overall a very good experience.
Dr. Spanik is an amazing family practitioner. She always asks about other family members in a caring manner, like she knows our family. It is a nice personal touch.
Doctor and staff were very nice!
Pleasant experience.
Dr. Spanik is very professional and very good at her profession. Very happy she is my primary care physician.
I find Dr. Spanik to be involved fully in my care. She is respectful and caring. She inquires about how I want to handle my care plan.
Excellent
very good
she always listens
Dr. Spanik is the best! I am extremely happy that she is my doctor and I always feel very safe and well cared for by her. She knows me so well and is a great support for me and my family. I cannot imagine having anyone else as my doctor!!!!!
All wonderful, experiences with Dr. Spanik!!!
This was my second visit with Dr Spanik. I feel blessed to have her as my PCP. She is very thorough when examining me and explaining things.I feel she sincerely cares about me, she is very knowledgeable and fun. I feel like I can talk to her about anything. Thank-you Dr Spanik!!! I really appreciate you!!!
My experience was great!!! All the staff were caring, friendly and efficient. Thank-you!!!
Very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly
Dr. Carli Spanik is one of the best. I would recommend all of my friends to use her as their provider.
Beyond good, l would say excellent.
Dr. Spanik took the time to listen to my concerns about taking certain medications. She made sure I was aware my concerns were heard. We worked together to come up with a medication and treatment plan that I was comfortable with. Dr. Spanik is a wonderful doctor.
I love Dr. Spanik! She is personable, caring and gives clear information. You can tell she truly cares about you and your health.
Dr. Spank is a great doctor.
Dr. Spanik is a wonderful physician. I am a new patient to her and I extremely happy with having her as my doctor.
She listened to my concerns and involved me in coming up with a plan of care. She was very supportive.
I always look forward to talking about my health issues and hearing the best ways to resolve them.
Great experience.
Dr Spanik is by far the most caring dr I know. She will listen to what you have to say and give you feedback. I have been to many specialists in the last 3 months and not one of them wants to listen or spend any amount of time with you.
Dr. Spanik is wonderful. Trying to get a specialist appointment, the wait was 6 months out. I had to go elsewhere.Dr Spanik is for my overall health. I do have a specialist not through advocate. Dr.Spanik is aware of everything. the last visit we went over everything. Thank you
Dr. Spanik is very thorough. Gives insights into my questions and offers suggestion for me besides that. I always feel that she listens and asks questions that I didn't even know to ask or didn't think of. I am very pleased to have her as my doctor.
My last visit with Dr. Spanik was very thorough and all my concerns and questions were addressed. She is very knowledgeable and took her time. Even though she didn't have any regular openings, she opened a time slot for me to be seen after my head injury. I walked away from that appointment with a care plan that I felt comfortable following. Her recommendation of what to do in the coming days after my appointment I think was very helpful in my healing process. I'm so glad that I had a follow up visit with her after my head injury. I left with an understanding of my symptoms, what to expect, and how to treat it. My visit with Dr. Spanik was way more informative and helpful than my ER visit at Rush prior to seeing her.
My visits with Dr. Spanik are always very great. The care she provides is excellent. If you don't understand something, she takes her time to explain medical issues and will make sure you leave understanding what is going on. She even drew me a picture to understand better what she saw that was going on in my nose. My visit with her again at this time was more helpful than the nose specialist Dr. that I saw. I found my follow up appointment with her more informative and helpful. Another visit I had with her, she did some tests on me to rule out the possibility of something serious when I was having some concerning pains around my chest. After the tests, she was able to diagnose what I had and I felt comfortable that she was so thorough running those tests. The questions she had asked were so helpful and got us down to what was going on. I appreciate the care Dr. Spanik provides for her patients, I can't imagine going to see any other doctor for primary care. I hear most people do not like their primary and that used to be me until I was recommended Dr. Spanik by a family member. I hope Advocate recognizes Dr. Spanik for her excellence!
always a good experience,listenes to me,explaines any new health concerns thoroughly and sees that all my questions and concerns are addressed . really cares
never a bad experience
I love Dr Spanik. I feel like she is partnered with me in all my healthcare needs. she takes time to listen and never seems rushed.
This as a post hospitalization check up. Dr Spanik is very caring & knowledgeable. She took the time to ask questions concerning health & medication issues. She asked my opinion regarding a medication I felt needed changing. She explained in detail what medication she felt would work best for me. Asked me to follow up with her should I experience any complications. She discussed why I was hospitalized & if I had followed the hospital drs instructions for self home care. I feel listened too & her caring manner.
She was very nice, respectful, kind and answered all my questions very well so I could understand. She informed me of some things so understandably that I never understood before. It was a very nice experience and it was the first time to see this (for me) primary care physician after Dr. X left the practice.
Very good experience.
Dr. Spanik is an excellent healthcare provider! She truly cares and tries to problem solve. She listens and is empathetic. Favorite family medicine doctor I've ever seen at Dryer.
I have always, and will continue, to recommended Dr. Spanik to anyone seeking a medical professional.
She was very thorough!! Amazing doctor!
good experience
Dr. Spanik is an amazing asset to your organization. She is kind, patient and caring. She also never makes my appointments feel rushed or me feel crazy for some of my questions and issues.
I love Dr. Spanick, she answers all my questions and is very thorough.

Excellent, as always!
Very good listener.
Dr. Spanik is always concerned about my health, making sure blood work is up to date, flu shots. She is always checking where I'm at with my chronic headaches. Seeing if meds are working or making adjustments.
Dr. Spanik is always helping & concerned with my chronic headaches, whether I'm headache free for awhile or struggling. I know I can always count on Dr. Spanik for help with my headaches.
