This was the third time that the good Dr. has worked on my back, and every time I got the best of care. If you need a good Dr. put your trust in him. He has so many people to care for, you might have a small wait time for an appointment, but worth it.

Everything about my surgery went smoothly. It's obvious that Dr. Slotkin really cares about his patient's outcomes! I'd highly recommend him to anyone needing spinal surgery.

Dr. Slotkin is the best. He did surgery on my neck, and relieved all pain. Other Dr.'s wanted to do different disc's, and this would not have relieved the pain. Have no doubt in what he wants to do. I have total trust in him, and you should too.
