My husband has had issues for years having difficulty swallowing and food getting stuck. He had…read moreseen doctors at Northwestern & they would just dilate him. It wasn't until he started seeing Dr Moxon that he was finally able to determine the cause. It was a joint effort between Dr Moxon & an allergist who were able to assist him. He has had several scopes and no issues! He has been able to stop both his omeprazole and his cholesterol RX! Inflammation is no joke or anything to dismiss. So grateful to this practice for their time, care, attention and ultimate resolution to his issue.

He did one test, a CT scan, then grossly missed diagnosed me as a drug seeker despite my constant pleas for a colonoscopy and even my doctors at University of Chicago said I needed a colonoscopy. He would not do it. Needless to say, a few weeks after discharge I finally got the scope at UofC and not to my surprise, there was a massive blockage.

Dr. Stinneford has been my gastroenterologist for well over 15 years now. He has a terrific bedside…read moremanner, I wish he could teach most Primary Care Doctors a thing or two! No question has ever been off limits even if it was about something outside of his pervue. I first started to see Dr. Stinneford for a preexisting ulcer. He has always stayed on top of my medical situation and when I was going through a hard time he tried to get me some samples of my medicines when I needed them. He has been very understanding and empathetic when I have needed tests and two surgeries. He has always returned my phone calls often into the evening after his appointments or after his days doing procedures at the hospital. I often tease him that if he ever gets tired being a gastroenterologist he can be my PCP any day. Dr. Stinneford is very personable and has a great sense of humor! He is in his 50's, is married and has a couple of grown kids. If he ever moves, I am too!

Dr. Caruso is a really pleasant doctor. She very nice and warm and friendly. I felt comfortable…read moretalking to her about my stomach issues. I had a very hard time trying to find a gastroenterologist that I liked and now i finally have! There is a bit of a wait to get in to she her but I actually look at that as a good thing. Would you want to see a specialist that can get you in right away? I for sure as heck dont! I want a doctor who has a good patient following. (I once had a docs office tell me they could get me in within the week and I looked him up and he had terrible reviews- no thank you) I really am glad I went to see her. Waiting room time is the same as any other specialist's office. Her office staff was courteous. Would recommend!

Horrible! Can't make an appointment or get a televisit for months. When I made a televisit with…read moreanother doctor in the practice duly called me THE DAY OF THE TELEVISIT TO CANCEL THE APPOINTMENT. Why? Because if you've seen any doctor in the practice in the last 3 years (even if you're sick and can't get into your own doctor) you can't make an appointment with any other doctors in the practice. You'd be better off to go to a back alley doctor because these are a group of greedy doctors that don't care what happens to their patients. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!

They offer great service, and have the most poliet staff I have ever seen in any kind of doctor's office! On my last visit I decided to come to see them even though I live over 45 minutes away now. TOTALLY worth it. They don't over charge, and they do great work! I never leave feeling a lot of pain or have to go back to get something re-done. I've had so much bad luck at other places, I don't want to risk it ever again!

My father, a 78-year-old patient, was brought to this ER following a fall at his rehab facility…read more His medical record clearly documented a tape allergy with a specific notation that tape causes skin tears. Despite this being visible in his chart, staff applied standard adhesive tape to his arm. When the bandage was later removed, it tore his skin open, leaving a wound that was still unhealed ten days later and caused him significant pain for several weeks. This was not an emergency situation. He was there for a head CT and was stable. There was no reason his allergy could not have been checked before tape was applied to his fragile, Prednisone-thinned skin. I filed a formal complaint and received a response acknowledging the issue and stating that staff had been educated on allergy documentation. An apology and a staff training do not undo the unnecessary pain this caused my father. Documented allergies exist for a reason. Patients and families should not have to fight to have them respected.

I am thankful for the healthcare professionals and care team at this location…read more From the registration staff, to technicians and medical professionals, even volunteers and security, I have typically had a positive experience. Only downside for me is the cost of care for tests, or things not covered by insurance. (Check out alternative places, like Bright Light Imaging for CT Scans or imaging). The halls and main spaces are kept clean and in order. I especially appreciate the staff in the Breast Care Center. They are very caring individuals. I also find it is a perk to have a nice Starbuck's in the lobby here too, so you can treat yourself to a hot or iced beverage after an appointment. And, this is your reminder ladies (and men) to practice self care and get checked regularly each year. You matter! And this is a nice place to go when care is needed.
