Sheldon Spector, MD

I spend several days trying to get information regarding my testing through their office. Finally gave up and moved on. Horrible customer service.

I started seeing Dr. Spector in 2012 for CIU (Chronic Idiopathic Urticaria) that I had been suffering from for 3 years at that point. For those who have or have had CIU, you know how debilitating and miserable it is… Literally hell on earth. By the time I saw Dr. Spector, I had tried just about every possible treatment including prednisone, cyclosporine, every combination of anti-​histamine possible, xolair, etc. Despite his vast knowledge of allergy/​immunology and his distinguished reputation, he was very humble and open to suggestions and feedback and worked with me diligently and tirelessly to find a long-​term treatment. Finally, in January of this year, he suggested an anti-​inflammatory, colchicine, which has thus far been successful. I don’t know whether I will relapse, but if I do, I am confident Dr. Spector will help me through it and having that confidence and trust in your doctor is priceless. Additionally, his staff is very friendly and accommodating.

I actually called for Dr. Spector, but was given an appointment with Dr. Tan regarding shots for my cat allergies. Dr. Tan was friendly and helpful. But this review is mostly regarding the practice and staff, as I’m now regularly dealing with nurses for my routine allergy shots.
I am so impressed. Sharon is the nurse who I usually see, and I’m just so grateful that my regular walk in appointments are so quick and convenient. I usually don’t even wait 2 minutes, coming in without an appointment. Sharon, in particular is incredibly helpful and accommodating, and goes out of her way to answer any questions I might have.
I’ve become grateful because I was initially getting my allergy shots at a practice of another allergy doctor, but I felt that the nurses and staff there were rude and unhelpful, so much so that I was actually offended and never went back. I found Dr. Spector nearby from searching Unilocal (I wish I had done this in the first place), transferred my records, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Thank you Dr. Tan and Sharon for restoring my faith in the medical profession after I was very disappointed with a different practice.
And thank you Unilocal for helping me find great doctors and practices like this!

Dr. Spector is my allergist and my primary care physician. He is super thorough and always has my best interest in mind.

Dr. Sheldon is a great doctor. His staff are very nice and always smiling.
