Dr Slack is a straight upfront doctor that knows and understands my medical needs. I have complete faith and trust in her.

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.

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.

Dr Slack is thorough, caring, knowledgeable, and amazing. I would change insurance plans before changing providers. I always come away feeling that all of my healthcare needs have been addressed. She is a 20 out of 10 in my book!

Dr Slack is knowledgeable and personable; plus, always professional with me she seems genuinely interested in me and my health. I don't want to share her; so, I wouldn't want to recommend her to just anybody. I would only refer the people I like a lot to Dr Slack; because, she deserves to have good people for clients in my opinion.The Receptionist that was most kind to me in the past was not there on this last visit of mine on the 19th; so, I felt not as warmly received as I have been when she was always there. The Receptionist did nothing wrong, just business as usual, no personal recognition; and, I missed that warm element of my usual visits.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Neutral. It would be helpful if the doctor had more curiosity about my symptoms and medical needs.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Slack is excellent! I am always blown away by her. Her right-hand-person, Alison is fabulous, and even the front desk person put her call on hold to check me in, although that process always takes longer than I'd like. Thank you!

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.
