Strong solvability and uniqueness in the Sobolev space W2, q(Ω), q > n, are proved for the oblique derivative problem

assuming the coefficients of the quasilinear elliptic operator to be Carathéodory functions, aijVMOL with respect to x, and b to grow at most quadratically with respect to the gradient.
