Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

It was a great relief and help to me to find a doctor educated about complementary cancer therapies and prepared to use them to help me heal in every possible way. Dr. Block is ceaselessly educating himself about cancer and both natural and allopathic approaches to healing cancer. His Center in Skokie, Illinois, is where he delivers his therapies, and you will have to travel there to take advantage of the chronomodulated chemotherapy and IV nutrition he offers, but with COVID they have started to offer telemedicine appointments and there is a lot of advice about diet, supplementation, and exercise they can give you through telemedicine.

I have been treated by Dr Block twice in my life. Once in my 30's for a chronic skin condition and again in my 60's for advanced prostate cancer. In both cases he was instrumental in my treatment and cure. He takes time to really evaluate your case. He is comforting and offers integrative and holistic care which in my cases made all the difference in the world. In the case of my skin condition the diet made all the difference. In the case of my cancer it was diet, another surgeon and a supplement routine. He and his team reviewed all my medical records and helped me decide on a path. 8 years later I am cancer free and healthy in every way. You may have to change some things in your life, but it is worth it and he helps you get there. I love this guy and his Center.

I have worked with hundreds of physicians since 1973, and I have never met a more dedicated doctor. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer or any ailment, see him ASAP.

He is a caring and brilliant doctor. I am blessed to be within driving distance to his clinic in Evanston. He treated my mothers colon cancer . She is still very healthy 12 years later. He is now treating my husbands lymphoma and it is giving him so much hope. We are taking all his instructions very seriously. I believe he will be a big player in the future cure for cancer. Also, the chemo they administer is given with fewer bad effects due to the personalized vitamins administered with it.

Anyone with a diagnosis of cancer should get themselves to the Block Center. Dr. Block and his team are amazing and I can't recommend them enough. Went there as soon as I was diagnosed, though I have access to great doctors in Richmond, Virginia...the Block Center tells you how to take charge of your own health. Is NOT an "alternative" cancer center, Dr. Block uses all the best that science and medicine have to give us, but teaches you how to use food and exercise to maximize effectiveness.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer three and a half years ago. I did pretty well for the first 2 and a half years but when the cancer returned, I began taking flights out to Chicago from Philly. Dr. Block and his team are incredible. They got me to complete remission in 9 months and now I am on maintenance therapy. The Block center is a unique place and is worth the travel for anyone suffering from cancer. Jerry

Dr. Block is an amazing Doctor. He is incredible knowledgeable on a wide range of topics. He genuinely cares about his patients, and thinks outside the box to get them the help they need. I credit him with saving my fiancés life. He is empathetic, honest, and brilliant. He also is there for patients when they need him (phone calls, help with referrals, etc. for which he isn't paid). What more could you want?
