As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, I have the time and resources that allow me to formulate a wellness plan that will help you achieve your health goals. Whether you are dealing with acute or chronic conditions, we will carefully and proactively individualize your treatment providing clear explanation of your options.
In my practice, we create a stronger doctor-patient relationship which enhances your personalized medical care and allows you to achieve optimal health.

My interests include patient education, healthy nutrition and exercise, as well as risk assessments/treatments for diabetes, coronary disease and stroke prevention.

Thank you Dr. Spedlel for always being there! It is a comfort knowing that you are within a phone away. This is rare these days.
I can't say enough good things about my experience with DR Spedale. He is a dedicated, caring doctor and his staff is also wonderful.
Having a Doctor who cares about me and my health encourages me to care more as well.
Dr. Spedale is always patient, kind and helpful. I always have the feeling that he honestly cares about the welfare of his patients. My daughter, the nurse, told her dad and me that we needed to become patients of his because she recognized his caring, patient attitude. She was right!
Dr. Spedale has promoted good health and happiness to my family for quite sometime.

He has been just a phone call away for both small and large health events!
He treated them as if they were equal! Respect and good care go a very long way!
