Extremely professional
I needed to see a Doctor right away due to Covid 19. I'm an not from CT and he saw me right away even though it was my first visit. He was very patient, took his time and did not rush to conclusions when I told him my health history. I am very satisfied with the service I received.
Verified patient
He’s awesome. Very thorough.
Dr. Slutsky was extremely kind. Probably the nicest doctor I've met in a while. He was very thorough and helped me to get a better understanding of what I needed. He made feel as though he is a very personable professional and always willing to help whenever possible. I highly recommend him.
Excellent Doctor. He is the only doctor in two years to realize that my arm was too big for normal blood pressure wraps and I needed the bigger size, not because I'm fat, but because I lift. I have to go to the doctor a lot for health issues and over ten doctors and nurses over a two year period of time all said I had to go to a heart doctor for my high blood pressure. My first day seeing Dr. S. he realized the issue right away and my blood pressure was perfect. Needless to say, I got to make fun of all my other doctors and nurses!
Verified patient
Excellent, caring and thorough.
