    Dr. Slack is very thorough. I scheduled an earlier appointment due to a more immediate concern for an extreme back issue. He recommended I see a pain management specialist (which I am now scheduled to see). He also had me do back x-rays plus blood works. He is always listening and following through with treatment as needed.

  • About Shawn L. Slack, MD

    The relationship between the patient and physician is a partnership that is instituted to maximize the health of the patient. The tools the partnership uses to achieve this are effective medicines that are carefully monitored in addition to improving general health through a good diet and regular exercise.

    Philosophy of care

    I believe the physician acts as a teacher and advisor to the patient.
