What do you like best about Spruce Health?

I love that there are so many options and the medical compliancy is not matched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

The user experience for the practitioner and the client is lacking. If you are a small business that is trying to learn so much including how to run taxes, an office, staff, etc, then Spruce is a headache. Unless you plan on using the most basic features and not learn much else, don't count on support to be excited to help you explore the rest of the capabilites that are available on the lower plan.

Instead, I was shuffled to about 10 different videos and articles,and told to attend their "Onboarding Session," which I was beyond. I was told I could spend time asking questions, which I did, but it wasn't enough to work out the kinks. They said I could attend another onboarding session to ask more questions after they lectured about the basics. Asked numerous times for additional one-on-one help, but was denied.

In a nutshell, there isn't a choice for practices who are not big but not small in their customer service world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Spruce Health solving and how is that benefiting you?

HIPAA compliant messaging. Ease, you can hop on your phone and it is done. Whereas going to a portal and logging in is not as user friendly. I can share documents easy. However, setting it up to use for my practice is messy, hard to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Spruce Health?

As a Mohs micrographic surgeon, the Spruce health app has empowered me to deliver top-tier care to all my patients effortlessly. The capability to review post-operative photos and monitor the healing process enables me to support my patients every step of the way. It's truly amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

It's frustrating that Spruce doesn't retain the date stamp of the photos when I download them to my computer. It's essential to have the option to download photos with the time stamp intact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Spruce Health solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a Mohs surgeon, it is crucial to carefully monitor patients at various post-operative time points to ensure that the surgical scar is minimal and aesthetically pleasing. However, this can be challenging during a busy clinic schedule and may pose a burden on patients who have to travel just to show their scar. Spruce provides a solution by enabling patients to send photos to me when requested or whenever they have concerns, making the process easier and more convenient for everyone involved.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Spruce Health?

Spruce has been key in keeping in communication with my clients. It is an app on my phone and desktop that allows me to filter business vs. personal when calls come in. Safe, secure and there is an app for even more security should my clients decided to download it on their end. Couldn't do this work without it as a small privately owned business. Also, love that I can fax through it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

There are no complaints to date. I've learned how to use it efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Spruce Health solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't need a second phone - my clients can reach me quickly and easily since so many prefer texting these days. Ease of faxing without need for a landline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Spruce Health?

HIPPA compliant communication, primarily text. Having my own phone and e-fax numbers. Having stable records of text conversations without bogging down my phone's memory. Accessible via App, Phone, or Internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

The connection can be slow, so I have to wait for conversations to be updated.

Program needs to add group capabilities.

Update 5-14-24: I've stopped using the video conferencing platform because it is such a bandwidth hog that my clients are unable to obtain enough bandwidth for it to function. And there is still no group capability, which I NEED. I've switched to ZOOM for video conferencing to get this feature, and for more stable connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Spruce Health:

Good product for a good price. If you need HIPPA compliant texting, this meets the need and is relatively easy to use. The refresh rate on some screens on my phone is a little slow, but the web version is generally timely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Spruce Health solving and how is that benefiting you?

Spruce solves the problem of HIPPA compliant texting for clients who prefer this method of communication. I particularly like having records of my calls/video chats in the same stream as the text, so they appear in context. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Spruce Health?

I can have my phone, fax, and text all in one platform, and can access it on my phone as well. I can get my messages wherever I am and know they are secure to protect patient information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

I honestly can't think of anything I dislike. It has been a very easy platform to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Spruce Health solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was already paying about $12 for my e-fax service and needed to upgrade my phone system as well. There was no easily accessible phone system for my small clinic (even buying a phone and cell phone plan) that would have been less than about $15, so it made sense to get both the fax and the phone together. I'm very glad I did. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Spruce Health?

I like that I was able to transfer a number I was already using, I have the ability to fax, I can do secure messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spruce Health?

I don't like that calls have to come through my phone number. I know people can't see my personal number but it makes it a little more complicated. It just shows my spruce number as an incoming call so I don't actually know who is calling me until I answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
