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.

Saved my fater's life
An excellent heart surgeon. Dr. Schlidt performed a tripple bypass on my 86-year-old father, and he is up and running like new.The care Dr. Schlidt showed what you would expect from a family member. I think he is one of the most underappreciated doctors in Milwaukee, considering that he can perform a bypass without stopping the heart, unlike many others.If I ever need heart surgery, I will not hesitate to come to him.

December 27, 2007, Dr. Schlidt performed an OPCAB (Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass), surgery on me. The fact I have had no issues for the past 12 plus years speaks to his work. His post surgery follow up was great and detailed. This surgery was at St Mary's hospital. I believe his beating heart surgery technique allowed me recover quickly with no after effects. I was back at work in NYC on January 14th 2008.
