Maybe Joel still would have died, as he…read morehad a very aggressive cancer, but at least the grueling road of chemo he had would have been much easier with someone as kind, compassionate, and patient as Dr. Adess is. He is very compassionate and will not say stupid crap like "be strong" if you break down and cry. He really is an angel and one of the few doctors I met in the 2 and a half years that actually listens to the patient and treats the caregiver with respect. My late husband Joel loved him dearly as do I. He even called me the next day after Joel died to extend his condolences to me. I was very touched. I will always be thankful to the peace that he helped Joel achieve in the sunset of his young life. I believe there is a special place in heaven for Dr. Adess when it is his time to go there. If you have to be going through the nightmare of cancer, please be sure you have this compotent, caring man by your side.

Before I started receiving treatments there, the pain in my back had almost disabled me. Spent 16 to 18 hours in bed daily and had lost a significant amount of weight. Now, 2 1/2 months later, my back is almost pain free. I no longer use a walker and feel as good as I have in 6 or 7 months. I have an appetite again and gained some weight back, too. Of course, I still have cancer and will go through a stem cell transplant in mid to late January, using my own cells. This cancer is not, as of now, curable, but it's one form of cancer for which the treatments are positive in extending one's life for quite a long time. In particular, I would like to compliment Dr. Hakimian, MD, Dr. Klein, MD, and Ms. Mary Pryka, nurse practitioner, all of whom have been instrumental in handling my case. I have asked many questions, have always felt that they have given me direct answers, and as much time as I have needed. I don't feel rushed and now have a good understanding of my cancer and the drugs, shots and infusion treatments I am getting. Do I have a long way to go? Yes, but I feel good about it. My anxiety level, which was stratospheric before I found them, is really just about normal again. (Yes, I mean that.) I have a plan now and a group of professionals that can get me to where I need to go. I feel pretty fortunate. Furthermore, and this was important to me. The ICS is in the northwest suburbs. Getting there doesn't take a lot of time for us. That's good because I'm there weekly for now and will be going there 2-3 times a week during recovery. In an emergency, I don't have a long way to drive. Plus, parking has been a luxury. There's always a place. Perhaps some of you can't understand why I would put this on my list of important items. I get that, but given the reputation of the place and the health care providers, the location was something that I valued. Last, the front desk receptionists are pleasant and responsive. And, the nurses who provide weekly treatments could not be more caring about my condition, always asking how I am. I believe them to be sincere about it as well. For information, I have no relatives at ICS and did not know anyone there before I started. The references for me were from doctors who I had seen and from others who had received or are still receiving cancer treatments there. They are pleased with the results.
