In fact, I can guarantee you, the words " I am sorry to tell you, but it the tests revealed you have..." will do more than just rock your world...Life will never be the same, but, you can get past it--way past it. Once you begin to process, I suggest that you check and see if you can get into Dr. Frim. If you, or someone you love finds themselves in this situation, check and see if Dr. Frim will accept your case. Your doctor needs to refer you to him. He is fantastic. Kind, generous, works with you, but is extremely exacting. His standard of care is amazing, he works to ensure that you are taken care of and receiving the highest level of medical attention possible. Sherri his nurse is fantastic, his office staff is unbelievable. I was late for one appointment- harried and worried, I shared this with the receptionist. Her comment was, "honey, you know Dr. Frim. Even if he would have gone home already, and he would come back happily to see you. " This sort of treatment is the norm for this fantastic surgeon and his staff. Oh- also a funny story- My father had a minor back surgery and ask one of Dr. Frims residents if they had heard of his surgeon at Northwestern- Of course- Dr. Frim had trained him! I have trusted him with my life and still do. The fact that I still have it is due in a big way to him!

Dr. Bruneau is someone who listens and takes care of you. I went through 5 years of being told…read moreeverything from having a third world parasite to being told I had nerve damage until this doctor talked to me for 10 minutes and gave me options for the pain. I went with surgery and she found the issue and resolved it. This doctor really is a doctor in all senses. She listens, she understands and most of all she only does what needs to be done and no more. She is conservative, intelligent and very well mannered. Her attention to family members understanding the issue is amazing. Glad I found her and will gladly travel far to let her treat me.

Dr. Wonais has been my general doctor for 15 years. He is very easy going, great bedside manner,…read moreand his office is set up to offer discounts to self-pay clients. A regular office visit is $65, not bad considering out patient visits at the Edward Hospital Locals run $399 now. Doesn't willy nilly prescribe medicine, or needless tests. If you do need bloodwork, he gets back to you personally the next day, first thing. Always willing to discuss any problems you have, never makes you feel rushed or uncomfortable. A great doctor, my whole family goes to him.

This guy is horrible and needs to work on his bedside manner. I came to see him for a sudden droopy…read moreeye and he actually told me "sometimes eyes droop and you need to learn to live with it". It took two visits before he would refer me out. I wanted to see an opthamologist, but he wanted me to see a neurologist. I did see a neurologist, but was forced to argue with him to see an opthamologist. He insisted that a opthamologist could not help me and told me to "stop acting like a baby and grow up". In the end I saw an opthamologist who did diagnose me with 2 conditions which require surgery. This guy does not care about his patients and is a quack!

While I lived in Oak Park for the first three years of my time in Chicagoland, I went to Dr. Hutton…read morefor my annual check-up and couldn't believe that I had stumbled upon her. At the time she was off of North Avenue, but she moved to a more convenient Oak Park off of Lake St. I have to tell you that she is NOT the type of doctor that keeps you waiting in the reception area for 30+ minutes and then spends 5 minutes w/ you before flushing you out of the room. She comes in, sits down and starts a dialogue of how you're doing/feeling and if there were any questions for her. Her bedside manner, as it were, is perfection. She's very welcoming and you feel immediately at ease talking with her. She is amazing. In a time when doctors rush through their appointments, I feel lucky that I didn't have that experience. Too bad she's now out of my network. Blah...

Dr. Regina Stein is one of the finest doctors I worked with since being diagnosed with chronic…read morelymphocytic leukemia. She gave me her cell phone number for emergencies when I was at my sickest and did not bat an eye when I called at 3:00 am Thanksgiving for help (she was not on call). Regina is compassionate, hardworking and gets to know you first to make sure you are comfortable with her and the practice.She needs to know you and your needs to make sure that the course of treatment fits in with your personality, diagnosis and lifestyle. You are not just a medical file and diagnosis, you are a person first, then a patient. I am in remission and she and the chemo nurses made this possible. When I worked at a company with very iffy medical coverage, she knew I was outlaying more than I was making. She went to her partners and the insurance administrator and worked out an arrangement beneficial to me (and I'm sure to her detriment). Thankfully, I have much better insurance coverage now. Also, the health insurance administrator suggested we work together to see if I would be eligible for grants from the drug companies and other cancer charities and foundations if I had trouble meeting the deductible portion. There is a lot of help out there, you just need to be willing to do the paperwork. Regina's called me at odd hours when I have a question- you just need to be patient because she has hospital visits to make, patient appointments. transcription and return calls to make.She is also entitled to a personal life, but I swear I don't know where she finds the time. But she does call me back and I don't care if it's 9 at nite- she called because she knew I was worried. I thank God that I could find a doctor that not only put me into remission (knock on wood) me, but cared about me as a human being.

First off, if I could rate Dr. Capone and her office as 0/5 stars, I would. DO NOT waste your time…read moreand money at this place. The general office staff is mildly courteous; however, Dr. Capone is completely burnt out! She did not explain any procedures to me, and was utterly condescending. Then, they had the nerve to schedule appointments I never made, nor wanted; not once, but on two occasions, with the last accompanied by a cancellation fee. Also, when confirming my initial appointment, the staff never informed me that I would have to park in a parking garage. I arrived almost 45 mins early to my appointment, and was still a few minutes late because I was trying to find the correct building. A little bit of customer service goes a long way. I warn you against places like this.

My three children were patients at Dr.Henry, and we decided to switch doctors. On a recent visit to…read moretheir pediatrician, the doctor did not record a polio vaccination that my ten-year-old daughter should have taken. He asked us to call the previous doctor to find out if she took it. When we called, we got the run around for days without an answer. They claimed that they updated their software and would not be able to provide us this information. I decided to email the medical board, and after two months, I received a copy of my daughter's medical record with a very unprofessional letter from Dr. Henry himself. He went as far as to tell me in the message that I am an unfit parent and unintelligent for not keeping a copy of her medical records...Side note, we did not ask for the medical records as we have them. We wondered if she took a vaccination that she should have but is not listed on the medical records.....Either way, really classy from a doctor and professional to insult me because I wanted to make sure my child had the proper vaccinations. I would not bring my children back to this place if he treated them for free! I am appalled at the letter he wrote and the accusations he made.
