They also have another building, located right across the street. I absolutely adore the doctors here. Been coming here for 5+ years, and each time I am treated with nothing but respect. I always get a call the day before ,confirming my appointment. I never have to wait, sometimes I would come way to early, and if they were not busy I would get seen right away. And i have been seen by more than one doctor here in both buildings. They have valet parking available. Not sure how much it costs since i park on the street being a cheapass. It is a huge building with many doctors, so of course people will have different experiences, depending on which doctor you see.

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.

Heather didn't even examine my back and spent less than 5 minutes with me. All she could do was send me for an MRI and nothing more even after I already told her my back conditions. Their is a reason I never ever want to see nurse practioners or physician assistants and this visit with Heather just solidified that. They do not hold MD degrees or have the proper knowledge or training to see patients. I am also switching practices because of this terrible experience and her rude demeanor. I might even dispute it with insurance as I was not supposed to see her.

My insurance suggested i see Dr. Brull…read more Im changing insurances. Walked in, was given paperwork and handed my ID and Insurance card. Standard for a doctors office. I was filling out paperwork when Dr. Brull comes and starts yelling and screaming at the front office staff and one of the nurses. I make eye contact with Dr. Brull she closes the main door; were patients walk through to go to the exam rooms and tells the gentleman to close the glass window. She continues to scream. About spelling errors someone texted her and using too much paper. What? I felt very uncomfortable. I turned in my paperwork and was given back my information. The girls were sweet. I was called to the back, the nurse (that was screamed at) brought me to be weighed and check my height. She was sweet, i felt bad so i started a conversation with her, as we walked back to the exam room. Dr. Brull comes out, all red in the face, angry, gave me a half smile. Saying "good help is hard to come by"......im sorry what? You speak that way to your staff? and verbally attack them IN FRONT OF PATIENTS ALSO?? Waited for Dr. Brull to come in, she apologized how her staff is under staff, a nurse left recently because of a death in her family. We talked about my concerns, i started to bring up another symptom/issue i was having She held her palm up to my face. And said one problem, one visit at a time. Schedule a follow up to discuss another symptom/issue. (obviously she would like to get paid for a separate diagnosis) What In the World for the 3rd time. Seriously? I told her why do you feel you can speak to anyone that way? Why?Do you actually have patients who come back? whom are happy with your service? your caring understanding compassion as a physician? She looked at me, smiled, with her annoying bob hair cut. And told me shes more than welcome to have another physician to see me. Then Comes Dr. Deborah Geismar. I liked her. She seems very smart, knows her diagnosis. But the 30 min i waited. Im 150% sure Dr. Brull conversed with Dr. Geismar about what happened from the waiting room to the exam room. Dr. Geismar answered all my questions, asked me if i needed anything else. Comforting. But i felt she was putting on a "nice mask". The forced smile was unbearable. It was very uncomfortable, myself and i felt extremely bad those nurses and front desk staff were spoken like that, all for a paycheck. Not worth it. No one should speak to anyone like that. I understand its hard to deal with patients from 8am to 6pm, but thats your job. To be there for the health of your patients. Dont bite the staff who take care of you and your patients.

When my Mom choose her doctor and began her chemotherapy everyone was very nice, couldn't be more helpful. She completed that phase Aug. 2009. In Oct she began radiation but at a different hospital. Tomorrow we have the scan to see if the tumors are gone. Needless to say there is much anticipation. Though quite robust at the start my Mom is no longer strong enough to walk on her own, it has actually come on rather suddenly after the radiation and she is also now dependent on oxygen. When we called the office today to alert them to the need for a wheel chair, (this is only the second time she's been out of the house since Dec. 31st). We were told that no accommodations could be made by anyone at Haematology-Oncology. She was further told by the phone receptionist, "We do not provide any service like that". I am stunned at the lack of consideration shown her! The receptionist offered no suggestions at all! We have no idea how we will transport her from a taxi arriving at the curb (parking facility is too far away from the 676 building) through the long lobby to the 21st floor offices of Haematology-Oncology. And then she must go to another floor for her scan and then arrive back on the 21st floor for the results, all in the same day. I hope that other families will not have to be treated with such rudeness. Though this group is affiliated with Northwestern, a renowned hospital, the lack of respect for the feelings of patients is unacceptable. It was the most inhospitable treatment we've received through this horrific ordeal.

I didn't see any other patients in wheelchairs or with oxygen, although there was a wheelchair parked in the corner of the waiting room with a big note on it that said "IN USE, PLEASE DO NOT DISTURB." Maybe it was one that a patient came in. I had my first appointment with HOA, and it went really well. I just wanted to write a review to share my experience with Dr. Claudia Tellez, and the staff. Their office seems very well organized. The front desk greeted me right away, answered questions, and asked if I'd had a chance to fill out the paperwork they'd emailed to me in advance. I had, so I handed it over. They validated my parking, so it only cost $10 to park in the garage at Northwestern hospital (instead of $26). The $10 rate for parking is good for 7 hours. The waiting area is very clean and bright, and they have water and coffee available. I waited about 15 minutes to be called in for a vital signs check. Then I waited another 10 minutes in the exam room. Dr. Tellez was a very good listener, and very thorough. I didn't feel rushed, and she gives off a very warm, friendly vibe. She was professional, asked me a lot of questions about my health history and lifestyle habits, explained things in detail, showed me the test results my doctor had sent over to the office, and explained what everything meant. When I mentioned tummy issues that I have already yelped about, she recommended probiotics to help heal the lingering symptoms, and I was happy to hear that. I feel like a lot of doctors don't give probiotics the credit they deserve. So on that count, she struck me as pretty forward-thinking. She explained what she proposed we do about my situation, which made a lot of sense to me. She was very balanced, but cautious. I gave up some more blood for testing right across the hall at the lab, and the woman drawing my blood was very nice and professional, too. So I have an appt with Dr. Tellez again in 2 weeks. I know it's just one experience so far, but it was a good one.
