Dr. Sleder is one of the best doctors! We’ve been going to him for 10 years and I couldn’t imagine taking my kids anywhere else. I recently had my 5th child and there was no question who would be his doctor! He’s the most kind and positive doctor I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.

We have been with Dr. Sleder for almost 14 years, and have always had a great experience. Dr. Sleder knows my son, and remembers and asks about the activities my son does. Dr. Sleder is excellent at listening attentively to my son, who can ramble on sometimes. Dr. Sleder is also great at explaining things to me (the parent), and also to directly to my son in a way we can understand. Best pediatrician around!!

Dr. Sleder and Hannah are an amazing team! My son freaks out at shots and Hannah was so calming with him! Dr. Sleder is (as always) an amazing doctor and always makes us feel like my son is his only patient. I really appreciate both of them and this amazing office!

The physician was thorough and friendly. One concern was the bedside manner doing the genital check. Please maintain professionalism and avoid using the words “tickle, tickle” when performing annual exam especially in the genital area. This is unacceptable.

He is very patient and kind. He always listens. He is never in a rush. He takes care all of our needs.

I’m loyal to Dr Sleder. If he told me tomorrow he was leaving Community to join IU or St. Vees I would probably follow him over there.

Dr. Sleder is an amazing doctor for my daughter, he is caring, kind, and really interacts with my 5 year old. He was the doctor on call when I had my daughter and we were originally going to go with a different doctor in the practice, but when he came in when she was 1 day old to see her, I immediately switched to him as her primary and do not regret that choice at all. He, and his staff, are so amazing with my child, interacting with her, and respectful during the exam, and discuss consent and such that I truly appreciate them.

Great doctor
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/21/2021
He is knowledgeable, caring and great with children. When we were in the hospital after my daughter was born, he was the pediatrician that came by from the practice to see my daughter. I was not originally planning on seeing him, as I was going to have her just see Dr. Gelatt (whom we deeply respect and appreciate as well), but after meeting with Dr. Sleder and talking to him the day after my daughter was born I felt like switching her to his care was the best decision for us.

Appointment started on time, even though it was a 3pm appointment. Usually with medical offices appointments at this time of day don't start on time, I was VERY PLEASED that was not the case. Dr. SLEDER spent a nice amount of time chatting with us, asking valid questions about covid and Naomi's experience.
