    Spencer uses Medtronic implants for spinal fusion surgeries. The thing is, these implants are temporary and not designed to be left in the body after fusion -- but he didn’t tell us that.
    He did a major, aggressive fusion on me when I was 14. I developed serious chronic pain and fatigue and Spencer denied there was anything wrong with me.
    In the end, I was forced to have another major surgery to have the implants removed and it turned out because these TEMPORARY implants had been left in my body, I was having a severe necrotic reaction -- my flesh had rotted and died inside of me! The implants that I was told would last a lifetime were corroded and bent.
    I have serious concerns about Spencer’s motivations and competency.
    Please, do not send loved ones to this man and always seek a second opinion.
