Fantastic experience: Cynthia Boswell, NP is great. She has helped me more than anyone ever has. She listens to me and answers my questions.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shiffman is a wonderful and caring doctor who listens to her patients and partners with them for the best outcomes. She stays current in integrative medicine practices, gives sound advice but allows her patients to try different approaches if that’s what they choose. Highly recommend her!

She also checked my hormones and made it so easy to be preventative as well with checking labs and such. 10/10 I highly recommend this office and staff!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shiffman has been an incredible advocate for my health and wellbeing. I’ve been seeing her since March of 2022 when she diagnosed me with SIBO and SIFO. Since then, she’s helped me deal with hormonal changes due to perimenopause and identify ways to manage my thyroid and weight. I’m so grateful for the Spruce MD practice.

Fantastic experience: Living in Cashiers, NC , it is very helpful that Spruce is able to advise us here as well as in office visits . The care has been very individualized , listening to our concerns and implementing plans to resolve them .

Fantastic experience: After starting sessions with Katherine Taylor, RD I was immediately impressed with how engaged she was in determining a strategy for my unique UC situation and not reading from a script or some guided process. Her expertise and care shines through and the improvements to my day to day life are already showing! My dietary changes are positively supporting my medical treatments, I’m losing weight but not starving, and suddenly my joints feel amazing! Looking forward to continued improvements! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had such a wonderful experience with Spruce MD and Dr. Shiffman. From the very first visit, Dr. Shiffman was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and collaborative. She took the time to truly listen and worked with me to create a care plan that felt both comprehensive and personalized—something I’ve never experienced at this level before. The entire team has been phenomenal. Rebecca and the front office staff are always so prompt, kind, and responsive to calls and messages. I always feel supported and heard, which has made such a difference in my healthcare experience. Thanks to the care and guidance I’ve received here, I feel empowered and finally on the right path in my health journey. I can’t recommend Dr. Shiffman and the Spruce MD team highly enough—they’ve helped me get to where I want to be, and I’m so grateful to them for that!

Fantastic experience: I love my monthly facials with Megan. It’s the most relaxing experience and I feel good knowing that she uses products that are non toxic and actually good for my skin. She also takes the time to educate me on things regarding my skin ( and so much more too - but that’s just a bonus).

Fantastic experience: I felt as though the traditional medical system was failing. Going to Spruce MD is a breath of fresh air. Dr. Shiffman took time to sit down and listen to every aspect of my medical concerns. At Spruce MD the look at the body as a whole and work along side other specialties - like nutritionist- to achieve optical health goals. 10/10 would recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Katherine has helped me navigate a nutritional plan that has been life changing. The Spruce team is amazing!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Taylor has helped me so much! I have only had a few appointments with her and I already have so many answers and have improved a ton! If I could give her 10 stars I would!

Fantastic experience: Spruce MD delivers the most comprehensive and compassionate wellness care I’ve ever experienced. Dr. Blankenship and her entire team are dedicated to uncovering the root cause of health issues - not just treating symptoms. Their work is truly life-changing.

Fantastic experience: SpruceMD is such a gift to Greenville! Dr. Mary Brittain Blankenship is incredibly knowledgeable and has encouraged me in every way in my health journey. From fertility to postpartum, joint pain, emotional support, diet and exercise goals - she has been there for me. She has the unique ability to push me outside of my comfort zone while at the same time meets me where I am so that anything I'm working toward feels achievable. Dr. B has an awesome practice with an amazing team and I hope anyone considering digging deeper into their health will check out SpruceMD!

Fantastic experience: Spruce MD is a wonderful place, and I can't say enough good things about Cynthia Boswell. From my very first visit, she made me feel completely at ease. Cynthia is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but she also takes the time to listen to her clients. I never feel rushed or dismissed—she listens attentively to the symptoms I describe and answers my questions without judgment. It's a great comfort to have a provider who fosters a supportive and trusting environment.

Fantastic experience: Our family loves Dr. Shiffman. She has taken the very best care of us the past 7 years in both Virginia and North Carolina (she is licensed to see virtual patients in these states, as well as South Carolina). We truly appreciate her active listening skills, holistic approach to wellness, and knowledgeable treatment recommendations. Last year, I was experiencing annoying pulsatile tinnitus that affected my sleep every night. After a few unhelpful visits to an ENT doctor, Dr. Shiffman made the connection to low iron. She suggested an over-the-counter iron supplement and a few weeks later, the pulsing stopped and has never returned. Thinking outside of the box and partnering with her patients for their optimal health, Dr. Shiffman is a truly a gifted and personable physician!

Fantastic experience: I came to Spruce MD frustrated, tired and defeated. Dr Blankenship took me in, found the source of issues, turned over every stone, and slowly brought me back to health. She is still turning over stones and wants me to live my best in my best health. Highly recommend you give her a call.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient at Spruce MD for 9 months, and working with Cynthia Boswell has been transformative. When I first came to Cynthia, I was struggling with sleep, stress, digestion, and hormone issues. Cynthia’s expertise in hormone and thyroid health, along with her functional medicine approach, meant she truly listened and focused on finding the root causes—not just masking symptoms. She provided the one-on-one care and support I needed, and now I feel like myself again. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable provider who is dedicated to helping you feel your best.

Fantastic experience: Cynthia and the team at spruce MD is amazing ! They helped me and my family get into a great healthy state

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Spruce MD for the past two years. Cynthia Bosewell is the most compassionate and amazing nurse practitioner I have ever seen. Her knowledge is above all other physicians I’ve seen. She makes herself available and takes her time to come up with appropriate care. I am grateful for her support.

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Cynthia last year and she is definitely one of the best Nurse Practioners EVER! I am a nurse who is very picky and have been very unhappy with many NPs in the past because I felt they did not have a good understanding of what they needed to do or sufficient experience. Cynthia thoroughly explains everything and has referred me out when needed unlike my previous provider who told me I was tired because I was old. I highly recommend SpruceMD- the providers and staff are there to take care of patients and it shows.

Fantastic experience: I had a three month follow up with Cynthia Boswell today. In the year that I have been in this practice, I’ve learned to really love Cynthia for her calm and gentle manner. She’s an amazing listener. I always feel heard.

Fantastic experience: Cynthia is both experienced and smart. She helped untangle a difficult diagnosis and devised a therapeutic regimen that was mostly non-pharmacological. Other doctors took my BCBS, but spruce was well worth the cash payment.

Fantastic experience: Cynthia Boswell has been so helpful in learning about my autoimmune diseases and helping me make lifestyle changes to improve my overall health. She is knowledgeable, empathetic, and proactive in care.

Fantastic experience: Love this office! Cynthia has really helped me get my hormones and issues regulated. My energy levels are up and I had a massive skin issue that is cleared up completely. Super easy to work with and really cares about helping you.

Fantastic experience: Cynthia is the Best! She carefully listens to all your concerns ands needs while also offering advice and help in all areas. I definitely recommend her to all my friends!

Fantastic experience: Cynthia makes you feel like you’re in great hands, and helped me work through things my gastro couldn’t!

Fantastic experience: Cynthia Boswell goes above and beyond when dealing with my health. I have had a lot of bad experiences with other doctors because they don’t listen to my concerns or they are rude. Cynthia listens to my concerns and offers me different opinions and investigates with me to find a root cause. She always remembers and asks follow up questions on how my health is going. Cynthia does a great job

Fantastic experience: Great staff !! Amazing Providers

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Cynthia Boswell highly enough. She brings together the rare combination of deep clinical knowledge, thoughtful listening, and a genuine sense of care. Every appointment feels like a collaboration, not a transaction. I never feel rushed, dismissed, or reduced to a checklist. What makes her practice especially valuable is that it’s outside the constraints of insurance-based medicine. Without the red tape and rushed appointments typical of traditional healthcare, she’s able to focus on real root-cause healing. I’ve experienced more insight, attention, and progress in a few visits here than in years of bouncing around conventional offices. Kind. Considerate. Incredibly sharp. If you’re looking for a provider who treats the whole person and not just the symptoms, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: Cynthia is hands down the best medical professional I’ve had the opportunity to experience. She genuinely cares about your overall health and well being. I never feel rushed when we meet, and always leave with great recommendations and health plans.

Fantastic experience: Katherine has been my dietitian for the past 4 years and she has completely changed my knowledge and lifestyle related to food. She has helped me make decisions that have improved my overall health and understanding of how food/supplements affect your body. She offers wonderful motivation and encouragement and I look forward to every appointment!

Fantastic experience: Megan is great! Very knowledgeable and really tailors your facial to exactly what your skin needs.

Fantastic experience: Megan @ Spruce MD is the most amazing mix of professional, sweet and knowledgeable! She has made me feel so at ease every visit and that has been so helpful. I’ll keep going to SMD and Megan is one of the reasons why! The entire practice is amazing!

Fantastic experience: I started with Spruce MD when my husband & I retired to Greenville in 2020, right in the middle of Covid. We had no physician & I wanted a fresh start with someone who looked at the body from a holistic viewpoint. I was thrilled to find Spruce MD & Dr. Mary Brittain Blankenship. While our first appointment was virtual, it was extremely thorough. I was impressed & signed on for the long haul. I've now been going to Dr. Blankenship now for 5 years. My labs are WAY better. Cholesterol is down, blood pressure is under control, inflammation markers low. I've lost weight. I feel much better! Dr. Blankenship is smart, is up-to-date on the latest information & cares about you as a person. Besides Dr. Blankenship being a wonderful physician, Spruce MD has a great support staff. I can't say enough about their nutritionist Katherine Taylor, as well as their patient coordinator (right-hand woman) Rebecca Milling. Highly recommend Spruce MD Integrative Medicine.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Megan for almost a year! She has helped transform my skin from red, angry, and congested to clear and happy! Would highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: My facial expert Megan was so calming, caring and knowledgeable of her talents. She was informative as well as very professional. I highly recommend asking for Megan when looking to get your next facial. Thanks a million Megan for you kindness, it made my day.

Fantastic experience: Megan is great at what she does! Very knowledgeable and cares about the health of your skin. I trust her judgment and the treatment room is very comfortable!! It’s definitely a monthly treat!

Fantastic experience: Met with Megan today for a Resting Metabolic Rate test. A wonderful tool as part of an overall healthy lifestyle! She is very knowledgeable and has the ability to explain everything in an easy to understand way. Her warm and funny personality is an added bonus! Want to understand your body more, give Megan a call today!

Fantastic experience: It’s always a delight to have Megan utilize her expertise for my skincare needs. She has quite a vast resume of experience. She is a joy to chat with, makes you feel comfortable. She is very gentle and it’s beyond a treat to partake in her services.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place. Staff is welcoming and so kind. My facial with Megan was top notch. She is so knowledgeable and thoughtful. She made me feel so comfortable from the moment she greeted me in the reception area. From start to finish my experience was so relaxing and wonderful.

Fantastic experience: Love that Megan is super knowledgeable about skin and all the things! Even through different phases of life, such as pregnancy, Megan always had useful recommendations for improving skin complexity.

Fantastic experience: As a patient for 5+ years, I would encourage anyone that wants a truly proactive versus reactive healthcare approach to go to SpruceMD. Dr. B is kind and thoughtful and thorough. Investing in your health is hard/costly with many mountains and valleys, and I feel so lucky to have found a practitioner that walks beside you on the journey, never making you feel less than or not enough as you figure it out together.

Fantastic experience: Love the entire team at Spruce! So grateful for a smart and thoughtful health team :)

Fantastic experience: I was able to become a patient with Spruce MD because Dr. Schiffman is licensed in Virginia. The virtual appointments are very easy to do. She’s a doctor that takes the time to listen and is always looking for ways to improve my overall health. The support staff is so nice as well!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shiffman rocks! She's so kind and attentive. The office is a great environment!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Schiffman knows her stuff and takes her time with you. She’s very thorough, and you can tell she cares about her patients. I saw her for menopause related issues, and she was able to help me with many symptoms, including an irregular heart rate that was hormone related.

Fantastic experience: I saw Katherine, for my diet needs. After the stomach bug, I have been in complete confusion on what I should be eating to rebuild my gut health. Katherine was very knowledgeable and was thorough when explaining everything. I feel so good about starting this journey. I look forward to my check ups. I absolutely recommend anyone who wants to take control of their gut health so you can start to feel a better version of you to see Katherine.

Fantastic experience: I appreciated that Cynthia carefully listened to my health concerns and provided valuable feedback and a plan for improvement. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Both of the practitioners I have seen so far have been kind, thorough, and curious in working with me to improve my health. Curiosity is so important because it means that they listen, are willing to think outside the box, and work collaboratively as opposed to a cookie cutter approach. The front desk staff are super helpful, all appointments start on time, and the communication between appointments is top notch. I would highly recommend Spruce Health if you're looking to take a more functional / holistic approach to your health in addition to (or instead of) a conventional medicine approach.

Fantastic experience: The RD is wonderful in many ways! Her encouragement has been key in helping me with my complex gut issues. Of the many things I have done to get better, this office is the best!

Fantastic experience: SpruceMD has been such a huge blessing to my life and health journey. Cynthia Boswell is the best doctor I have ever encountered on my autoimmune journey. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient, kind, understanding, and has been a huge help in navigating and understanding the various components of my health. I highly recommend Cynthia as well as this practice. The front desk staff is awesome as well and the office itself is beautiful and relaxing... it looks and feels like you're at a spa. Overall I have had a fabulous experience at Spruce.

Fantastic experience: I’ve only had a few sessions with Cynthia Boswell so far, however, I can confidently say that she is personable, truly cares, and is a great listener. I feel very supported by her in my wellness journey. She is knowledgeable, pleasant and easy to interact with. She focuses on running necessary tests so as not to turn my care into a financial burden given my current life circumstances. I appreciate her very much and highly recommend :) excited to incorporate the protocols she has recommended to help me feel better and improve my quality of life. May God bless Cynthia always.

Positive experience: Getting healthy is a personal responsibility. You have to do your own research as well as get diagnosis and advice from a practice like Spruce. It has been a long journey... initially working through perceived food sensitivities, to possible histamine overload, to gastritis and now to pancreatic enzyme insufficiency. I would have liked to get through these diagnosis faster, because all the data was there, but I am thankful I'm making progress. I never would have gotten this far with my standard doctor. They were helpless & clueless diagnosing my issues. But as I said, do your research, ask questions and FOLLOW THE PROTOCOLS to get healthy. A practice like Spruce can help you feel good again.

Fantastic experience: After becoming bedridden post long covid, Dr. Blankenship and the staff at Spruce helped me recover and eventually become the healthiest I’ve ever been. They didn’t just improve my quality of life, in many ways they saved my life. I’ll be forever grateful for the care from Spruce

Fantastic experience: The people at Spruce MD are kind and considerate. I’ve been with Katherine Taylor for over a year and she’s been a great help to me

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Katherine for 4 months and she has changed my life for the better. She is the best in the business and knows her stuff. New diet and her knowledge of health and nutrition has changed the way I feel for the better. She is great and I am truly grateful!

Fantastic experience: Dr B. Is always attentive and caring. She listens respectfully and addresses my concerns completely. I highly recommend this practice!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shiffman and staff are welcoming, kind, knowledgeable, professional, and thorough. They listen well and work with you. So happy to have found excellent care!

Fantastic experience: I came to Spruce MD for weight loss assistance, and I am so glad that I did. The staff is warm, welcoming, and supportive. I learned so much about myself from the very first visit and I can’t wait to see how my journey progresses. Don’t wait, just call them! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Spruce MD! I see both Dr Shiffman and Katherine Taylor. I am happy to be more aware of the root of my problems and not just treating my symptoms. I am working on my way to a healthier me and I feel confident in both of these providers! The whole office from the time you check in to the time you check out always makes you feel so welcome and I know that I am not “just another patient”. Any time I have a question or concern they promptly respond and take care of any need. Healthcare has really taken a nosedive with the big companies taking over the private practices. This makes having such a patient centered practice that takes the time to get to know you and actually spend the time to do so a huge sigh of relief. I never feel rushed or feeling like I didn’t get my answers to my healthcare questions. I can’t say enough about this whole team!

Fantastic experience: Cynthia Boswell is awesome! She is very bright and a great listener, I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for personalized care, this is the place to go. I've been quite impressed with the care and concern from everyone at Spruce. I see Jeanne Shiffman for my healthcare and can't say enough about how much she listens and responds to my concerns and questions. I've also started seeing Megan for skincare and look forward to starting monthly treatments with her. Next is my dietician appointment with Katherine. I have no doubt I will see the same great results as with all the other providers in the office.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shiffman is outstanding. She's professional, yet very personable and listens to all your concerns. She's helped me tremendously in my health journey with HRT, gut health, and overall health needs. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to take a functional, holistic and traditional medical approach to health.

Fantastic experience: Dr Shiffman is wonderful. She paid close attention to the details of my medical history, gives generous time for appointments, and made me feel like a person and not a medical file.

Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Dr. Blankenship now for 4 years. Her comprehensive evaluation standards helped identify my hemochromatosis and HBP. She's thorough, thinks outside the box, and takes a holistic approach to medicine. I'd highly recommend Dr. Blankenship and the team at SpruceMD.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Blankenship is extremely thorough and genuinely wants to find the root cause of my health issues. I am thankful to have Spruce MD as part of my healthcare team.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Spruce (Dr.Shiffman) for a couple of years now. I can honestly say that this is one of the best mid-life decisions I have made. I know that my health has improved tremendously from what it was. Dr. Shiffman is very approachable, attentive and kind. She can really “think outside the box” to help reclaim your health. You need to follow through with the treatment plan of course, but it’ll be worth it!

Fantastic experience: I am a very pleased patient of Dr. Mary Brittain Blankenship! She is very thorough in assessing my health. She is encouraging and helpful, and she never seems to be aggravated with my questions. She cares about my well-being, as well as my health. I am grateful to have her in my life. - Marti Richardson

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Spruce MD enough!! After 10 months of suffering with gastrointestinal and hormonal issues following my first bout with COVID-19, I gave up on trying to find a doctor in the traditional medical system here who could actually help. I found Spruce MD and I've been with them ever since because I have never before felt so cared for by a medical practice. Their front desk staff are always so kind and attentive - I mean they will truly go the extra mile to make sure you have what you need. Dr. Shiffman saw me surprisingly fast (no waiting MONTHS for appointments!) and was quick to find the culprits of my symptoms. Not only did she listen intently to my concerns, but she validated the difficult symptoms I was dealing with AND she was really up-to-date in the latest research on gut & hormone health, so she knew how to treat me. My health condition has been consistently improving in working with her and Katherine Taylor (dietician). Together they have not only saved my digestion - but have given me back a quality of life I hadn't seen in a LONG time. I am so incredibly grateful to have found this medical practice and cannot recommend them enough!

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Dr. Blankenship since 2020. She has always been great, listened to my needs and helped try to get to the root cause of my health issues. Highly recommend if you want a more natural way of healing

Fantastic experience: My wife and I are both members at Spruce MD, and Dr. Shiffman has been fantastic for both of us! I appreciate being able to speak directly to the doctor, and not jumping through hoops with insurance. I have, and will continue, to recommend Dr. Shiffman to anyone in search of a primary care physician.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Blankenship is truly one of the most knowledgeable providers I have ever been to, especially when it comes to chronic illness or misdiagnoses. After being dismissed from multiple doctors, I am grateful she not only is treating properly, but actually takes the time to hear the full story and tackle the root cause. Everyone at Spruce is intentional, kind, and are problem-solvers.

Fantastic experience: I had the best facial with Megan! She is very knowledgeable, non-judgmental, and amazing at what she does. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Dr Blankenship is awesome. I switched after another doctor wanted me to go in statins. Dr Blankenship worked with me to get my labs down to normal levels across the board without being on prescriptions. Also never feel rushed at the appointments. She’s willing to spend as much time as we need to work through everything. I’ve recommended her to several friends and they love her too.

Fantastic experience: I cannot express how grateful I am for the Spruce MD team and Dr. Shiffman. Dr. Shiffman has changed my life for the better and the staff always go above and beyond. So glad I found this place!

Fantastic experience: SpruceMD goes above and beyond for their patients and I can not recommend them enough! They show that they care about their patients and I've had multiple encounters where I feel as if I would not get the same level of care anywhere else. Rebecca, Kim and Dr. Shiffman have been absolutely amazing!

Fantastic experience: I have had such a positive experience with the providers at Spruce MD! I have never experienced such a personalized, caring, and comprehensive approach to healthcare.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Spruce and Dr. Blankenship for about 6 months now. She is wonderful. I enjoy collaborating with her about what mybest health decisions should be. She has really assisted me with the best transitions into menopause and wellbeing in my mid-50s.

Negative experience: $625 initial new patient visit and doesn't accept any insurance

Fantastic experience: I have had two visits with Katherine and I have been very impressed with her knowledge, compassion, and desire to help. Patrice

Can’t say enough good things about this practice, and everyone involved. So grateful to be under their care!

Fantastic experience: Love the whole team! I’ve been with them for 2 years. I appreciate the multi-faceted approach to healing my body, the ability to reach them when I need help, the fact that they value my opinion, the way they look at all the parts of my body together, the alternative testing and treatment options, so many things!

Fantastic experience: Really pleased to see Dr. Blankenship's comprehensive approach to wellness. I'm a big believer in proactive and preventative care and she lives what she shares with her patients. So grateful to have her provide this approach in Greenville.

Fantastic experience: I am just in the beginning stages of my health journey with Spruce MD, but I already feel comfortable asking questions knowing they will answer my questions with patience and concern. Madia and the office staff are always super helpful, Katherine is guiding me in my nutrition journey, and Dr. Blankenship is taking me through the steps to finding out the root cause of my symptoms. I look forward to seeing positive changes in my health with Spruce MD!

Fantastic experience: I’ve heard integrative medicine described as “thinking and linking,” the medicine of why, restoring normal function. For over 8 years I’ve been searching for answers to my gut issues, and I am finally getting answers at Spruce MD from this wonderful, powerful integrative medicine team. Dr. Blankenship, Katherine the dietician, and Madia have been so knowledgeable and helpful every step of the way to healing and living better AND making better choices! I am so grateful for them! Please keep doing what you’re doing! You make a huge difference!

Fantastic experience: I joined last fall seeking medical professionals that would help me address the root issues of my hypertension and pre-diabetes. My primary concern was avoiding any additional medications and getting off the ones currently prescribed for me. I could not be more pleased with the results I saw immediately. Dr. Blankenship and I discussed my lifestyle practices and she recommend several adjustments along with key supplements. As I integrated those changes into my daily practices my blood pressure dropped drastically. It’s been within normal ranges most days for months now. I look forward to working with her to start the process of moving away from current hypertension meds. On. A parallel track I’ve been meeting with Katherine to work on refining my diet and water consumption. She has helped me identify changes that are putting me on a path towards eating better, more mindfully, without dieting. The result of this work has been a loss of 13 lbs over the past couple of months. I’m learning how to master healthy eating for the rest of my life. Katherine also has a magic machine that provides a wealth of data on my physical status that I’ve grown very fond of I very highly recommend Spruce MD for those looking to get to the root of chronic issues quickly and permanently! This is one of the best investments I’ve ever made!!!

Fantastic experience: LOVE SPRUCE! So thankful for a proactive place to have multi-faceted integrative care...that’s actually effective! Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Spruce MD is a wonderful new system of health care. Dr. Mary Brittain Blankenship is accomplished MD with an eye towards wholistic medicine.
