She gave me a Pap smear while I was having my period, which I knew would skew my results. At the time, I questioned her, she told me my fears were unfounded & not to worry. It was perfectly fine to do a Pap smear while I was having my period period. She then called me saying that based on my Pap smear results, I needed a uterus biopsy. I went to my OB/GYN, who told me she never should have done a Pap smear while I was having my period. Thousand of dollars later after a very painful biopsy of my uterus, I found out that I was fine and it was all unnecessary because of the Pap smear during my period. I went back to Dr Wallner and told her what my OB/GYN said & the results of my uterus biopsy, and she bristled and was very irritated. She does not like to be questioned. I also went in for a physical and didn't even undress. It was a 10 minute procedure and she was very cold and short with me. I did not feel like it was thorough physical compared to others I have had previously,. No breast exam, etc. She also referred me to a terrible cardiologist, who would not listen to me. I ended up going to the ER on my own against her advice and found out I my fears were founded after an angiogram showed I had heart disease.

Not to mention she authentically walks the walk. When I had an insurance mixup and mistakingly visited without any insurance, the office billed me with a fair flat out of pocket rate for the careful time spent with me. As someone passionate about research and health and wellness, she restored my faith in the medical realm and has been a consistent ally along my health and healing journey.

I have been going to see Dr. Emily Lindner for about a year now. She was referred to me by family…read more Dr. Lindner is the by far the ABSOLUTE BEST doctor I have gone to see. Her office is cozy and calming, without the buzz of a reception desk. Cady, Dr. Lindner's therapy dog frequents the office, she is the sweetest. The one-on-one attention is wonderful and unmatched. From the time I sit down in her office I feel like she is engaged in everything I say and really hears me. She is thoughtful and kind. Dr. Lindner's education shines through when offering suggestions to my various issues. She is very insightful. When I leave her office I feel more educated about myself, and my issue(s). I leave with a plan to go forward. I can not say enough about Dr. Lindner and recommend her to everyone.

Dr. Betman is truly exceptional. When I first started seeing her, she was also treating my…read morecoworker. We had both come in for asthma issues, but Dr. Betman immediately recognized that my coworker wasn't experiencing asthma complications at all -- she was actually having a heart attack. My coworker didn't believe it, but Dr. Betman guided her to the ER, where they confirmed it was a heart attack. My coworker told me this story, and we both agree: Dr. Betman is the kind of life-changing doctor you want in your corner for life. A few other things I appreciate: she takes many insurance plans, is a women's health expert, teaches at Northwestern University, and refers out to excellent specialists (who also work with a wide range of insurance). Unlike most doctors, she takes the time to answer every question and treats every concern seriously. Over the years she genuinely gets to know you and cares about you -- almost like the small-town doctor you'd see in a movie. The busy office staff is perfunctory... they're not going to win awards for being "nice," as other reviewers have mentioned. But if you need treatment for serious medical issues, they are extremely competent -- which, in the end, is what matters most.

Dr. Reddinger is very down to earth, very personable and I feel I can talk openly with her, without embarrassment. She's also very thorough - you feel like she's really taking her time to listen to you and not just rush through the appointment. The office staff is very friendly and I'm usually able to get into see the Dr. (depending on the issue) same day or within the week.

Dr. Bailey has been my primary care physician for about four years now, and I have nothing but…read moregreat things to say. I was only seeing her annually prior to this year, but due to some changes in my medical history I have spoken with her more frequently this year and she could not be more helpful. She is definitely very busy and books out far in advance and has appointments to get to, but she is genuinely caring and wants the best for her patients. I can't recommend her enough!

Dr. Bailey has been my primary physician for about a year now and I'm glad I'm her patient…read more I switched over because we moved downtown and I wanted a physician that was close by and also was certified as an osteopathic physician. I appreciate her thoroughness and calm, kind demeanor. I never feel rushed when I have an appointment and most importantly, she listens to what's going on and we have dialogue. She's interested in treating the whole body, not just the symptom. Her after-care communication is great; although the office has an online system that they use for appointments and billing, etc. Dr. Bailey sends your results out by mail and makes herself available if you have any questions. I never feel like my problem is ridiculous or that I'm wrong to call about something. The office is close to bus lines and train lines. Plus, I like the fact that I see all sorts of people in the office coming in, it's a diverse area and that makes me feel more at ease and welcome.

I have been a Dr. Phan patient since 1999 and she has been there through at least two insurance…read morechanges! I first started seeing her when I had a real job with my own insurance and she has taken care of colds as well as the female stuff. I am the kind of person that wants my doctor to be no-nonsense and just cut to the chase with me - I've had a lot of serious health issues and I just don't want to sugar coat things. She knows this and gets right to it without any touchy-feely stuff, but I get the sense that she is totally compassionate and sensitive to patients who need that experience. I've never felt that she is cold, just professional, in other words! The only thing I wish that was better was trying to get a prescription for medication now and then - I went in for migraines a long time back and instead of a prescription, I had to keep a food diary - coming back six months later I just asked for the medication my friend let me try and got the script, but I was suffering that whole time. And every year when I have a cold, everyone else can get the Z-Pack but I have to let the thing run its course. I get that it is really for my own good not to take too many antibiotics, but try telling that to me when I am miserable and working 10 hour days!! A small price to pay for her wonderful and fast care! (And I especially love that she will call personally and leave test results on your voicemail if you authorize it!)

I'm assuming Dr. Phan is still a great doctor…read more I say "assuming" because I'm no longer her patient. Why? She dumped me. Last year I (like many Americans) went through an extended period of unemployment and no health insurance. I couldn't see her for awhile. When I became gainfully employed and fully insured again (yay!) the first thing I did was looked her up in the "book" for the HMO insurance plan I selected to make sure she could remain my PCP. Keep in mind, again, that she's already been my physician for going on 10 years. I was so loyal to her that, if she hadn't been listed in the plan I selected, I was prepared to choose another one where she was. I was pleased that Dr. Phan was listed in the plan I selected, and I called her office right away to make an appointment and get re-established. I arrive a week later or so for my appointment only to be told that Dr. Phan would not see me because she was not part of my insurance plan. Huh? But she's listed in my plan, I protested -- in the book and on the website. And furthermore, why didn't I receive a call telling me this before I actually came to the office. Dr. Phan's front-desk "gatekeeper" claimed that they've been trying to have her removed from my plan's "book" for several years. I, frankly, don't believe that. Not only is she listed in the book, she's listed on the website. It cannot be THAT difficult to remove. And further, I was asked the specifics of my insurance plan was when I made the appointment -- if Dr. Phan wasn't part of it, why not tell me then? Although I've had the same cell number for 6 of the almost 10 years that Dr. Phan was my PCP, and that number is listed as my primary number, her office called my home landline about an hour before the appointment to "cancel" it. How many people listen to their landline voicemail with any frequency? And why the office never called my cell number remains a mystery. I asked if Dr. Phan would see me anyway -- again, I hadn't been to the doctor in at least 9 mos. and I figured, after all of our history together, we could find a way to sort it out. No such luck. Front desk chick told me "Sorry, bye." So that's that. Never got any kind of follow up phone call or anything from Dr. Phan or her office. I felt silly for thinking that having had a longstanding history with her meant something. In the end, it did not. It's all about the "plan" and the profits.

I had not been to a physician for an annual check up since prior to college when it was mandatory,…read morebut figured it was about time (currently in my late 20's). I was dreading the appointment because typically doctors reprimand you for your lifestyle (i.e. If you have more than 2 drinks per month you're an alcoholic, etc.) and it's demeaning with respect to social standards. I try to keep healthy but I'm not perfect. Anyway, Dr. Pearson was the first doctor I've been to who treated me like a real person & listened intently to my concerns. She spent over 30 minutes with me (again, this was just a proactive check up) and by the time I left I felt like a VIP patient. Then within a few days after the appointment, she personally called me to deliver my test results (all positive) and patiently walked me through each section, explaining areas I did not understand. Moreover, she talks to you in layman terms, translating the medical jargon into coherent facts. I'm actually excited that I have such a wonderful regular physician! I certainly won't be dreading my regular checkups anymore. Seriously, Dr. Pearson is the best!!
