I told her ok how soon can the doctor see me and she said well hold on I am doing something else and placed me on hold. Do yourself a big favor and NEVER call or go to this office!!

My negative review of Cardiologist, Dr. Ali Valika (Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital) in Downers…read moreGrove, IL. comes on the heels of his office denying me clearance to do a knee replacement after they had initially faxed an approval letter to proceed just hours before. The back and forth with Dr. Valika's office over this knee replacement that was planned and on the books for almost a year and his approval of it is a sad joke, but I'm not laughing! My knee surgeon's office called me at around 4:45pm on Monday 1/6/25 to give me the time to come to the hospital and time of surgery. Not less than two minutes later, Dr. Valika's nurse calls me with the absolute worst possible excuse for cancellation of my surgery that was scheduled for the morning of 1/7/25. Here's why they cancelled my surgery... Last week, Dr. Valika's office didn't properly send an order for a specific CT Heart Scan test that he wanted done. I got tested for exactly what was on the order and now the nurse tells me that the test I had done was the wrong one, even though the test I had done came back clear with no issues. I tore into this clueless person on the other end of the line explaining how dumb and unfair this 11th hour reversal was, but it was to no avail. Now, because of their utter incompetence, I have to start all over again back at square one! I switched to this cardiologist because I wanted care closer to home. But as it turned out, going with the cardiology practice of Dr. Dominik Bufalino and Dr. Ali Valika was the worst decision that I've made in a long time. The staff doesn't seem to care about how their poor communication and lack of competence affects you and your needs. This doctor didn't even have the decency to get on the phone himself and talk to me personally about such a pivotal decision. I am a busy professional touring musician and teacher and the window of time that I carefully carved out for this knee surgery is now blown to bits! I am upset, I am angry, and I am telling everybody I know about this horrible medical practice! I'm going back back to my original cardiologists office no matter the distance. My former specialist treated me with respect and always talked TO me, not down to me. I will never set foot in the Bufalino/Valika cardiology office again in this life or the next!
