I'd been trying to get diagnosed for my thyroid problem for some 12+ YEARS. No joke…read more I am all for becoming your own health advocate, but it sucks when you have to become your own doctor. In that time I saw few good docs and many, many very bad ones who tried to put me on everything from the o blood type diet (and I could buy the book through them for $29.95, yes, seriously) to others who tried to sell me anti-aging supplements and give me scary, unproven "hormone" shots of god knows what, to one who wanted me to drive down to Mexico so he could give me "stem cell treatments" to one DO who wanted to align my chakras and do energy work. Siiiiigh. Yeah, I've been through the wringer. And Dr. Suh (I reviewed her on yelp) was on the right track with noticing how over time, when she looked at all my thyroid levels through years and years of testing, my thyroid overall was low and declining. So she put me on natural thyroid. She even, when armor thyroid became impossible to find on backorder for nearly a year, worked with me to go on natural thyroid from Canada. But something was still off. Felt off. And I went through several bizarre miscarriages which left even my reproductive endocrinologist scratching his head with no answers because he felt my levels were "fine" but had no idea what could be causing it. My ob/gyn at the time did a full work up and shrugged at me with no answers other than feeling my thyroid and saying it was normal to her. So I needed an expert and came across Dr. Pick. I was at the point of oh great, another doctor, but really you can't live sick like that so I sucked it up and went. Glad I did. Dr. Pick took a long time going over everything with me. Almost two hours of my history and tests and besides more current bloodwork (I tested positive for thyroid antibodies in 2003 with the o blood type diet witch doctor, but they ignored those very important results), when he felt my thyroid he said he was sure I did indeed have Hashimoto's. It's an auto-immune thyroid disease. Which btw, was my own self-diagnosis that for years no other doctor listened to. Dr. Pick doubled my thyroid dose on our next visit which has made a huge difference. His next visit he also took a long time to answer many questions my husband had (he wasn't able to be there for the first appointment). He has been very generous with his time if I have questions and his agreeing to work with me if for example I want my iron levels checked or vitamin D levels or something else in my monthly blood tests. Monthly? Oh yeah. Because after about 6 weeks of going on the right thyroid dosage? I'm pregnant again. Only this time, I didn't miscarry. I'm 28 weeks atm and we're having a girl. And everything's going well. :) I will warn that even with my very good insurance, Dr. Pick is expensive compared to some other endos I've been to, but well worth it. He's very warm, very focused, and very funny which is a nice bonus. If you're one of those patients like me who was falling through the medical community cracks without a solid diagnosis, he's well worth a shot. I wish you well. :)

I was a long-time patient at this office and have watched firsthand the cliff this practice has jumped off. If you're searching for a reliable primary care doctor near Libertyville or Gurnee, avoid Dr. Peter Puthenveetil at Greenleaf Medical Associates. He no longer prioritizes patient care--just Ozempic, Botox, and the cash flow. The medical staff is robotic, unhelpful, and disengaged. Communication is nonexistent, with exception of a termination letter from their practice. There's no real support or follow-through. It's a disorganized, reactive office that leaves patients chasing basic care. There is no longer any partnership in your health here--just profits over people. Stay far away.

I get a call from her that she can no longer see me because I'm too healthy and I won't be a good fit for her because she believes in and pills have you ever heard of a doctor turning down a patient that turned their health around his healthy and is no longer needing all of those ? My advice is to run as fast as you can from this doctor or maybe you should question all of your drugs that she has you on if they are really truly necessary this needs to be brought to everybody's attention because she does not deserve her 4.3 stars because the truth of the matter is, she wants sick patients to push fill her pockets with money. Please get a second opinion and never trust somebody that doesn't see their patience get healthy. Our system is rotten to the core.

I'll agree the long wait to see Dr Reilly can be frustrating but once you work with him you'll…read moreunderstand why there can sometimes to a wait and it won't bother you much. Dr Reilly is the most thorough doctor I have ever worked with. He runs a lot of blood tests to get a complete understanding of your overall health and underlying conditions. He takes the time he needs to properly diagnose your conditions and develop your treatment plan and explain it in terms that are easy to understand . I appreciate that he takes a diet and lifestyle approach to address the cause of issues and prescribes medicines when needed not as a quick fix because he knows all medicines have side effects. Dr Reilly was great about responding to calls and text messages. My wife and I continued to use him as our primary care physical for more than a year after we moved from the area and often wish we didn't change to a local doctor near our current home. I feel the 5+ hour drive once a year would be well worth the time to continue with the quality care Dr Reilly provided us for many years. Every doctor I've seen since moving falls well short of delivering the level of care Dr Reilly provided.
