Patient Reviews
Jul 12, 2024
I would like to reflect on our experience with Dr Slenker over the past year plus. My daughter was referred to Orthopedics after a knee injury from soccer and Dr Slenker came highly recommended. She underwent this surgery on December 22, 2022. Over the following 9 months of treatment, Dr Slenker and his team, especially Maria, his Physician Assistant were beyond incredible. The service, care, empathy, compassion, interaction with a teenager nonetheless was above par. Every single time Dr Slenker and his staff went out of their way to make sure we were both comfortable with the plan and progression of her care and it truly felt that he and his staff cared about her success. She is now back to soccer and snowboarding and track. I cannot express how grateful I am for Dr Slenker and his team!!
