It has been 1 year since my right knee surgery and I couldn't be happier with the results and all the staff at Ortho Georgia. So grateful to have wonderful Doctors like Dr Slappey and Karen to be there for me when I need them now and in the future.
Very personable, knowledgeable and put me at ease about diagnosis and next steps.
He did a great job explaining my issue and spent all the time I needed for him to answer my questions.

Dr. Slappey has improved my quality of life 100%. Jan2019 left hip and Dec2019 right hip. He is patient and has GREAT bedside manners. Karen his PA and Tina is nurse are Great also. The office staff is always pleasant and helpful. It was a bitter sweet moment to be released from his care today.
I was seen in a reasonable time and Dr. Slappey took time to address all of my questions. Very easy to talk to.
He has a comfortable, gentle manner that puts patients at ease. He is straight-forward, but always encouraging.
