Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Can't HEAR the message from a hearing expert.
I waited 4 weeks for an appt, which was cancelled day of because of a flat tire. I received 2 phone messages, where the speaker could barely be heard. I returned the call today and had to inform the receptionist that her speech was unintelligible. She fixed it immediately. I cancelled any upcoming/rescheduled appt since Dr. Slomka works only half day. My 3 yrs. of visits were marginal at best and there seemed to be little involvement of the resident audiologist.

Frustation
Dr Slomka has assisted me for almost 10 years for different issues with my ears and nose, always been pollite and very skilled. Always was pleased with his care but today I had an unpleasent visit. Lets start telling that I live 50 miles away from his office and I have to travel one hour on heavy traffic on highway I95 to be there on time. My today appointment was scheduled for 4PM, I arrived 25 minutes earlier at 3:35PM, signed the patients book and had a sit. BY 4:20PM his assistance came out to call another patient and I asked her when I was going in that I have been waiting, I had no answer from her, just a "Hi". Kept waiting in that very cold room and by 4:40 I said no more wait and walked away. I decided to run because i don't like to wait that long when my appointment was delayed by 40 minutes, Probably he was not awared that I was waiting that long but no more long trips to be frustated again. I think he should address this issue with his staff.

Stay away!
Staff is in a trance. Sitting here an hour and nobody updating. Already decided this would be my last appt with this Slomka clown after my initial. Just need follow up done. He is an idiot medical technician with old school ( outdated) methods and less than zero personality.

I have been a patient at Dr Slomka for two years. He is very thorough and very knowledgeable, he listen carefully to the patient and take his time to explain his diagnosis. When I called once the office asking about an issue I had in my nose , he came to talk to me and then asked me to come to check me though the situation with the Corona virus is very tight so I went and I was very pleased how he treated that spot. I highly recommend Dr Slomka he is great.

I went to Dr. Slomka for removal of impacted ear wax. He must have skipped that class in med school. He took forever and I now have increasing discomfort and ringing in one ear. On the other hand I have high praise for his audiologist and regret they work in tandem.

He was extremely thorough in his examination, clearly a very well versed doctor, and really heard what I told him. I’ll go back to him any time the need arises.

I needed a follow-up appt with an ENT after a trip to the ER. My primary doctor had previously recommended Dr. Slomka to my husband. However, my husband has not gone to him yet. I instantly felt comfortable as soon as I walked into Dr. Slomka's office. The office staff was very nice & friendly. Dr. Slomka was great! He took the time with me to explain everything; he did his utmost to make me feel comfortable. He was very gentle. He has a good dry sense of humor. He's a keeper!

This doctor and his office staff rate negative stars! Extremely poor bedside manner. Incorrect diagnosis. He diagnosed me with a sinus infection and perscribed an antibiotic based upon a clinical exam and two CT Scans. In fact no sinus infection was present and no medication was warrented. The CT Scans were negative. Old school ENT with mirrors and no scoping. Extremely dry personality.

The doctor was extremely rude. He wanted me to read to him the diagnosis with all the medical words. I felt like a kid in school. He treated me like I was wasting his time by not be sick enough. He has the bed manner of a snake. I would recommend him at all.

Dr Slomka has a very poor bedside manner. He is abrupt and doesn't like to answer questions about his procedures. My questions were only because I was seeking information. Dr Slomka seemed to act as though I was questioning his ability. I was not. He also told me that my concerns about my vocal cords were not relevant since I no longer sang professionally but rather just in the car or shower. I wonder if the doctor would think it was irrelevant if his hands started to shake later in life.
