I'm extremely satisfied and thankful for my Dr Al Muradi at Joliet Duly. His professionalism and…read moreknowledge is comforting. Never have a problem getting an appointment or much of a wait at Duly.

It is hard to review Heartland Cardiovascular since it is a practice with two dozen doctors and…read moreroughly a dozen locations. At this location I had a Holter monitor put on, and the process was seamless. I had an appointment which was right on, and I was in and out in a jiffy. I am not sure which doctors practice out of this location-which is a professional building attached to St. Joseph's hospital-but the activity for what I needed was excellent. Don't know about everyone else but my experience was tip top.

I personally had Dr. Tuchek as my surgeon. He has a bedside manner that is rarely seen anymore. He…read moreis a straight shooter, is very honest, and makes sure that you understand the condition he is treating. Dr. Tuchek goes over and above to make sure his patients are taken care of, long after his duties of a Cardiovascular surgeon are over. Believe me, when it comes to your heart, it's a matter of life and death. He saved my life! He is an awesome surgeon, and I feel very lucky to have him as part of my medical team. Also, Dr. Altergot is in the same practice and is a great Dr. as well. Check out their website at http://openheart.net You will find that Dr. Tuchek practices at several other facilities such as Loyola, Good Samaritan, and Carle, just to name a few. I have recommended Cardiac Surgery Associates to everyone I know, and in a few events that friends have had to see Dr. Tuchek, they had nothing but good things to say.

I couldn't be more pleased with Dr. Mary Gordon and her staff. She never ceases to amaze me. She…read morehas an excellent bedside manner, never makes you feel like she is rushing through your visit so she can see her next patient, is extremely knowledgeable and has impressed me to no end with her follow up and communication regarding test results, etc... after each of my appointments! If only every doctor were like her!!!! Her nurse, April is just as wonderful!

The majority of doctors are fine at this practice. The biggest hurdle is to overcome the abysmal…read morenurses such as ANGIE at this practice. Failure to return calls, disrespectful tone, inaccurate information are just three of her hallmarks. I used to wait until she was not in the office to call about the care for my elderly parents. It is surprising to me that she has continued employment. Stay away from this practice if ANGIE in Joliet, IL is the nurse assigned to your doctor or find another doctor in this practice. If you are experiencing heart issues, encounters with her will probably only exacerbate any issues you may have or lead to incorrect information being given. I know this firsthand. Follow-up: After over 20 years with Dr. K at this practice, we are switching doctors due to ANGIE's choices in behavior toward patients. Same practice, just different doctor solely due to ANGIE's lack of professionalism. Nurses can make or break a doctor's practice as they are the lifeline between the doctor and the patient. Dr. K's prior nurse was epic!!! We would wait for her to be in the office to call for assistance.

I've had a long history of coronary artery disease. 5 heart attacks, 11 stents, cabg and more. I've…read morebeen through Loyola's cardiovascular department where I felt insignificant and belittled when I complained of chest pains. Even after a heart attack. When I had my second MI 3 months after a stress test I moved to Heart care cardiologists in Mokena. At first they seemed as if they cared. Once again my complaints of chest pain were ignored and once again I had another heart attack. My 3rd. I was stented at Silver Cross Hospital in New Lenox by the Heartland Cardiology team. I switched to their team and Dr. Jain. Here I found a caring team. I've had more cardiac events but most were because of my stubbornness. When I finally did tell them I wasn't feeling well, they instantly put an effective plan to deal with it. After all my issues, I still have a strong heart. I'm still able to do the things in life I want to do. They take me seriously. Never belittle me. They are my cardiologists for life.

I have referred several family and friends to him over the years and they have all been very pleased with their care and compassion Dr. Shaik has. He is very personable and professional all in one. I have worked in health care since 1992 myself and these qualities are sometimes hard to find. I highly recommend Dr. Shaik for your medical needs and he has no problem referring you to a specialist if needed. I've had several health issues over the last 20 years as his patient and he has ALWAYS given me great advice on medical decisions I have had to make for myself.
