Every since I was diagnosed with breast cancer Dr. Slam has treated me like I was the only patient she has. She explains everything to you so that you know what to expect and makes sure you are very comfortable with the decisions that you and your family are making. I Love her and really appreciate what she does and wish that there were more doctors like her. Her staff is very friendly and they also make sure that they help you as much as they can with any questions or concerns. The office is inviting an I don't mind waiting to be seen by my doctor. I just Love Dr. Slam
