Dr Slack is the best.

During this visit, she was dismissive and seemed irritated with my description of symptoms. Blood test results came back same day and two were flagged as "high", but no response from her for almost a week and she did not address the two flagged results. I'm looking for another primary care provider.

Dr Slack is excellent at her job, anyone would be extremely luck to have her as their pcp. My husband will be seeing her now as his pcp since his pcp is retiring and he so appreciates Dr Slack's bedside manner and her expert medical knowledge.

Check in person insisted that I fill out additional questionnaire with same questions already answered on-line. Later the assistant verified that these were already answered and was going to talk to receptionist.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I used to think Dr. Slack was thorough. Now she often starts with jokes. Probably thinks she's being friendly. She dismisses concerns about lab results and persistent symptoms, doesn't seem concerned with underlying cause. I'd switch providers, but can't find another taking new patients. VERY FRUSTRATING!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Slack did everything she could to help me with my injury and to help me understand what is going on with my knee, and what I can do to help it get better. She also showed great compassion, and I appreciate that she will laugh with me, which is how I deal with painful situations often.

All good

Dr Slack is a straight upfront doctor that knows and understands my medical needs. I have complete faith and trust in her.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
It is off putting to have a hand out on the clip board telling people that if they bring up new medical issues at their yearly physical they may be charged with an additional charge for the visit. A yearly physical is the exact time you should talk to providers about health concerns that are new. It is fine if the doctor wants to recommend that pts come back, but the note was very off putting and offensive to me.I really like and appreciate Dr Slack, but she was running 45 minutes late for my apt which was scheduled for 9:30am and no one apologized or gave reason for the delay.

Dr. Slack heard all of my concerns about my knees and provided me with the confirmation and referrals I need to correct the problem. She always listens to me and respects my opinion even when my first choice is to seek alternative/complementary approaches to an issue. Traditional medical solutions are usually my last resort.

The good the bad the ugly... Reality is challenging!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Slack used medical terms without defining them in simple language. She speculated on all the potential negative diagnoses. Was not reassuring. Did not explain why certain blood tests were ordered. Appeared 35 minutes after my scheduled appointment. .

After receiving test results of what I thought was concerning and serious for HPV. I only received a MyHeatlh message telling me not to worry and they would continue to monitor next year. Dr. Slack is great however the way the system is designed does not allow her the time for special attention, extra education or reassurance.

Dr Slack was great! She had read about why I was in to see someone and listened to me as I explained what was going on. Gave me a clear diagnosis and instructions for treatment and care for the next couple of weeks.

Only thing that threw me was the fact I had to read all the questions about possible exposure to COVID question I didn't have my readers with me and would of just liked them to ask the questions. It's harder for me to read as I'm aging. Thanks for asking for my input.
Always thorough.
