    Great family physician. My toddler loves him, and that says a lot considering every visit she has involves getting shots.

    Some years back my mother ("Little" Dorothy Rogers - previously Director of Medical Records at WMH)…read morewas experiencing headaches and could not remember basic recipes. I took her to the ED at WMH in Sault MI where testing was performed. Mom was diagnosed with a, "Small Stroke" (direct quote). She remained in WMH for a couple days and during that time was "examined" by an "on call" physician and her primary care physician. Those two "concurred" with the original diagnosis and mom was placed in occupational therapy. A couple weeks later I received a phone call from my youngest sister (Evelyn), an RN at Mt. Sinai in New York - "Randy, I talk to mom daily and she is not responding like any stroke patient I've ever worked with. We need a second opinion." I immediately began transferring mom to Dr. Chander (my physician). About one week later Dr. Chander reviewed documents and the scan that was performed at WMH. Prior to even meeting mom he said, "I don't think it was a stroke." He ordered an MRI which revealed a large Glioblastoma (about 3 inches x 1.5 inches when centimeters are converted to inches). Mom went by ambulance to Petoskey where a more detailed MRI was performed revealing the large, gray mass but with tentacles well involved with her brain. A biopsy determined the mass was cancerous. Bottom line: Mom received radiation therapy in Petoskey, with the goal to buy her a few extra months with family before passing away. A tragedy! Mom was very loyal to her long time physician but did not balk when transferred to Dr. Chander as, "Dr. ______________ was not listening to me." Would the results have been different if Dr. Chander had been her primary care physician? Very possibly. Our oldest daughter (Kristin), a long time NP in Wisconsin, who has met and spoken with Dr. Chander numerous times over 15 years said: "If Dr. Chander ever retires, you two will have to move from the Soo." Dr. Chander is a "Water Walker". His commitment, intelligence and personality cannot be equaled. His recent treatment by MyMich is reprehensible and absolutely unforgivable. If Karma exists, the powers that be at MyMich will rue the day it was decided to grievously abuse Dr. Thilak Chander. A glaring example of Corporate Medicine at its "best" (a word dripping with sarcasm). Randy and Bonnie Rogers Brimley MI 9/15/2026

    New location: 558 Ashmun Street - the old GILLHOOLEY'S building. Yes, you will have to wait to see…read morehim, but rest assured that when he's with you, you get his complete and undivided attention. He always tries to get to the ROOT of people's problem (not: "let's take a pill for you to sleep" it's,"let's *figure out* why you're so exhausted") State-of-the-art office with EMR and e-prescription ability (no chance of the pharmacy mistaking his handwriting - it's sent electronically from their office computer). WMH has a lab draw in his office daily from 10-noon, too. Office staff is always willing to help and you actually feel like they care about you as a person, not just a patient.
