Best doctor visit I’ve ever had! Dr Slater took the time to deeply listen and help diagnose what was happening with a series of tests - while being absolutely hilarious and making sure everyone (staff and myself included) were in good spirits and aware of what was going on.
Have never had such a personable doctor. Could not reccomend more!

When I arrived, they did a CT scan and then told me a nurse practitioner would see me. I explained that I wanted to see the doctor I had originally made the appointment with, but they still sent the nurse practitioner first. I was then told that if I was willing to wait much longer, I could eventually see the doctor.
When I finally saw the doctor, he seemed focused only on scheduling procedures. I asked whether there was anything he could prescribe or recommend to help manage my symptoms while waiting for the procedures, and he responded that if I wanted medication, I should see a different doctor because he “only does procedures.”
Overall, I felt dismissed and frustrated by the experience. It seems like you are just suppose to agree to do procedures after 10 minute of consult or whatever.

The nurse practitioner who handled my appointment was so sweet and gentle. Very grateful for that because I was nervous in light of the pain in my left ear.
February 24, 2026Brittnie R.Verified patient
The staff was exceptional and really listened to my concerns! I did not feel like I was rushed in my appointment. Everyone was very kind and I felt like my needs were addressed.

Dr. Slater is wonderful!! He took me in as a last minute/urgent appointment on Christmas Eve, and was extremely kind and thorough with figuring out the best way to help me. I felt so bad about coming in knowing it was Christmas Eve, but he didn’t make me feel rushed, and made it apparent that he genuinely cared about taking care of my issues. He took his time to ask all the questions/run exams to help figure out how to best treat me. His staff was also very sweet, knowledgeable, patient, and supportive. I am normally apprehensive about meeting new doctors, but he and his staff totally surpassed my expectations. If I could give an infinite amount of stars I would!
