Robert Slater's Online Review Report Card

Horrible customer service from the girl at the front desk. Attitude and wants to argue. Not to mention Dr Slater is not nice at all. This whole office is terrible. No wonder so many bad reviews.

Bad experience with Dr Slater with the front desk.

Dr. Slater is very professional and to the point. He is very knowledgeable and his staff is great as well. The only reason why I am leaving 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the billing company he chose to work with. God! They are so difficult to get a hold of. I cannot for the life of me get anyone on the phone.

I highly recommend Dr. Slater and can’t thank him and his team enough for the amazing care they rendered to my son, who I bought in with a fractured wrist. We did come for a second opinion and I am so happy that we did because he immediately determined what my son’s needs were and placed him in a cast. He also provided very good advice and was extremely kind, professional, knowledgeable, and of course, skilled. I am one grateful mother! -Angelita

Dr. Slater was a great surgeon. I had Carpal tunnel in both hands and my left thumb he needed to repair, you can't see the scares. Dr. Slater explained everything in detail. He always smiles and asks how I'm doing.

I liked him right off. He was right to the point and I could see he was intelligent and professional. My son has a wrist tear injury from a slip and fall at work. My son is deaf and Dr. Slater was patient and kind with him plus giving me ample time to interpret for my son. His plan to fix my son's wrist was right on target and I have no doubt he will do a very good repair. My son and I both felt comfortable and relieved that his outcome with surgery will be a positive one. I give him 4 stars and would give him 5 if he lived in Redding(though not his fault) as we have to drive 2 1/2 hrs to see him but we feel it is worth it now. We also liked his office staff and they even gave us driving directions for our return home . Thank you Dr. Slater and we look forward to your professional help. John Arkeder and his Mom Janice.

Trust your hands to Dr. Slater! Both of my hands got to the point of non-functioning. I play guitar so when my left hand stopped working it was devastating. VERY happy to report that my guitar hand is better than ever after recovery. When my RH started failing I went back to Dr. Slater and and now almost over recover. I read some of the previous reviews and understand some have different options, but I would not trust my hands to any other Dr.

He is an emotional and condescending. Doesn’t really look you in the eye questions or concerns as we just don’t know any better and how to ask a question. Simple question I asked about recovery - if i did surgery-went to into a robotic answer. “ it depends on what you mean. You can walk the next day you can brush teeth two days later. Then do your soort 6 weeks later” I’m asking when I can get back to my activity. I’m sure he is highly educated and is extremely intelligent in his field. I am moving on to another doctor

AMAZING! When first explained the procedure (trapeziectomy) thought it sounded like elective back surgery… After a year and worsening pain, opted for the “fix” to elevate the problem. Very happy I did! Pain is gone from joint and feels better every day. Scars are almost nonexistent. A truly skilled surgeon who is a straight shooter! Forever grateful less than 4 months post op!

several trigger finger surgeries, carpel tunnel surgeries on both hands, cyst removed over the years. Very pleased with each surgery, What do you expect not all surgeons are wonderful personalities. What I expect is a positive outcome.
