How likely are you to recommend Dr. Spitler?
The most wonderful Dr. ever! In July 2015, I fell off a 30+ft cliff on the Pearl River, landed standing up and broke my right ankle. Was rushed to UMMC in Jackson MS. I had surgery by Dr Clay Spitler. I have 11 screws and 2 metal plates and I was walking again 4 months later, after going through therapy. Dr. Spitler is the best doctor ever, and a very wonderful and kind Doctor! Miss him here in MS. God Bless him and his family and keep them safe!!!! Kathy Carter Covington
