Dr. Sloan was very capable, caring, and thoughtful.

Dr.Sloan operated on me in 1969 for an Atrial Septal Defect. I was 36 years old at the time. I was at the U of M Hospital for 39 days. There were a few complications. However, I have had a very good life. I am 81 years old and have been able to raise my children and enjoy my grandchildren and great grandchildren. Many thanks to Dr. Sloan for giving me such a wonderful life. Dr. Sloan was a wonderful surgeon and a very caring man. My condolences to the family.

Dr. Sloan will always be very special to me. He performed the first infant lobectomy at UM on me in 1952. My parents were young and scared. Dr. Sloan, with confidence and expertise, saved the life of their daughter. Thank you Dr. Sloan! I will never forget you. My deepest condolences to your family and friends.

A a friend of John and Robert, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I offer my condolences to the Sloan family.

Dr. Sloan operated on me in 1961 as a one year old infant on my birthday (quite a present). He saved my life and I will be forever indebted to him. God Bless you, Dr. Sloan. Your life has changed/saved the lives of so many others. May you rest in eternal peace.

Dr. Sloan operated on me in early 1970 repairing my Tetralogy of Fallot. I am now 48, a pilot, a scouter and a father. Thank you to him, I am here today.

Dr Sloan was a superb surgeon and teacher. He taught me that understanding the limitations of an operative intervention was equally important as the potential successes.
