He was our family physician until we noticed how unprofessional and inconsiderate he was. Did you…read moreever meet a doctor that makes derogatory comments towards you regarding your spousal relationship? I was apalled. Especially when his partner denied my husband samples that were in plain eyesight. The same partner that misdiagnosed my husbands strep throat. My husband could not swallow and was drooling with a raging fever. I had to call an ambulance because he was at risk of choking. Nonetheless, he was hospitalized for 2 days on IV antibiotics. Worst practice and most pompis doctors I have ever encountered. We switched doctors office immediately.

I was a patient and "fan" of Dr. Grinblatt for 20 years. Sadly, things change. The quality of…read morecommunication with his office has gradually deteriorated. His receptionist concedes that they receive far more letters and faxes than they have time to read, and messages sent via email or North Shore Connect are completely ignored. She advised that the best way of contacting the office was by telephone. But for me, that was equally problematic. It typically took an average of 3 attempts to get through because the voicemail message would keep repeating, and then when someone finally did answer, they would put me on hold and either forget I was there or else disconnect me. When I was finally able to get through and leave a message for the doctor, he would return my call in 3 days ... 3 weeks ... or not at all. Equally frustrating, whenever I came in for an appointment, the doctor would typically be running 30 ... 60 ... or even 90 minutes behind schedule. The final straw was when I needed Dr. Grinblatt's signature on a medical form. To expedite things, I hand-delivered it to his office. He was busy with a patient but the receptionist assured me it would be taken care of. It was not. "I never saw the form!" he insisted. So, I made a special trip to his office to deliver the paperwork and a postpaid envelope a SECOND time. Once again the doctor was busy, so I handed it to his nurse and explained the situation. But the second set of forms mysteriously vanished, too. This is no way to run a medical practice.

My first visit to Dr. Grinblatt went very well. He seemed to have good bedside manner. The more…read moreexperiences I had with him and his office were progressively worse. He and his staff are unresponsive. A recent blood test result was very concerning. I sent a message to his office through Northshore Connect. It's been over a month; still no response. I did some research and made an appointment myself. This is no way for a physician to run his practice.

Whatever negative reviews you see on him I don't believe. He is the ONLY doctor I've seen who takes the time, gives the patients many many tests to make sure he rules out certain diseases and causes and explains things thoroughly. I have seen plenty of doctors in my life time including Northwestern and he beats them all. There is no comparison. He does refer his patients to specialists if need be and they are all good referrals, not as caring as him though. He has a "human touch" which a lot of doctors lack. I probably in my lifetime have been to 30 doctors and there is no comparison. Dr. Geohas does research as well and this enhances his practice. He is brilliant and studies all the time about the newest methods and medicines. You will be lucky to have a doctor like Dr. Geohas. My whole family went to him but because of location some had to switch to closer locations.

I was referred to Dr. Khorsand for a hernia. When he came into the examination room where I was…read morewaiting, he was very curt. When I began to explain my issue, he rudely cut me off and said "I don't want to hear any history. You have a hernia." Dr. Khorsand proceeded to check me and verified that I needed surgery. When I began to ask about the surgery, he told me to make another appointment. He spent a total of 4-1/2 minutes with me that day. I made a second appointment but then began to search out the subject. Almost every doctor now does the surgery laproscopically, a minimally invasive way without any major incisions or scarring. I call back Dr. Khorsand's office and asked if he did the surgery laproscopically. The assistant told me that she would ask the doctor and call me back. She did, but her answer was that he would talk about it at our next meeting, a very vague un-answer that should have only been a simple 'yes' or 'no'. I cancelled the next appointment. As a further note, Dr. Khorsand's bio indicates that he has been practicing for 51 years. That makes him around 80 years old. While I don't have an issue with age (I am 77), perhaps he might not be up to newer technology and procedures and is more comfortable with the old ways. Follow-up: I found another doctor at another local hospital that has great reviews for hernia surgery. I visited him and he was friendly and caring, and he spent all the time that I needed, asking me if I had questions. A wonderful change. In addition, this new doctor discovered that I also had a smaller hernia on my other side, something that Dr. Khorsand didn't even check for. I agreed to the suggestion to repair both at the same time, and his assistants sat with me to explain everything, giving me papers with the follow-up. They were also very pleasant. The surgery is scheduled and I'm ready to go with just one visit and a feeling of confidence in my new doctor.

Ever since Dr Ninan left the practice, Dr Joel Kragt is up to being a money hungry not caring…read moredoctor. He was my primary care physician for more than 10 years. I switched to Dr Ninan ever since Dr Kragt wanted to see me before he would prescribe an antibiotic for Cellulitis. I was out of town and since I am a diabetic, attention needed to be about my cellulitis, not seeing him first. Remember i am out of town. So i called my endocrinologist, she took care of this immediately. After a hip replacement, Dr Kragt treated me for a UTI. He never followed up and which caused my hip to get infected and having to be removed. I was without a hip for almost 6 months. When asking Dr Kragt about this he denied that he even treated me. WOW, I guess Walgreens was lying about the medicate you prescribed. Sorry Dr Kragt, time to take care of your patients and the not the almighty $$$.
