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.

Meeting with Dr, Dubchak, I found her to be a very caring physician. She listens carefully and asks relevant questions regarding my pain issues. Her recommendations are very helpful and she makes adjustments to medications if needed. I am thankful to have such a caring competent physician.

Wonderful Rheumatologist!
I never have to wait for my appointment. The staff is very friendly and professional. They have even "slipped" me in when I have been in painful need of my shots. Dr. Dubchak is compassionate, sympathetic and up on all the latest medical news. She has been so wonderful to me, I am so very appreciative. I have been going to her for my progressive medical conditions for six (6) years.

I have health issues for 20+yrs due serious car accident @21, now 50. Prior to my appt I gathered import h.records pertaining my first & LAST visit. She didnt want to hear ANYTHING I said. She kept interrupting while I was telling her about my prior diagnosis, injures, surgeries. I told her about a rash I got as a juivenile (butterfly effect) & a doctor diagnosed me with Lupus,HER EXACT RESPONSE, YOU DONT HAVE LUPUS & THE RASH YOU HAD AS A CHILD WAS HIVES. She insisted I go 2 P. MGT/THEROPY! Rem she knows everything, & she didnt hear anything I said, I told her in begin I been 2 P.MGT, Theropy, Inject for 15YR been there done that, my issue is something NEW/DIFFERENT. After I said that she replied I CANT HELP YOU BUT I AM GOING TO SEND YOU TO SOMEONE WHO CAN, HE'S IN LEMOYNE. WHAT? My ears inflamed. I grabbed purse, as i opened door she says, Any family history of mental illness? I REPLIED I WAS JUST ABOUT 2 ASK YOU SAME QUESTION. She billed insurance 4 max allow 1200.00 STAY AWAY

I like her as a person. However, I do not want to take all the new medicines that can cause cancer and higher risk of infections. That makes her mad and she does not want to work with me to find an alternative. I do know of people that got cancer from taking these medications and want nothing to do with it.

Very very disappointed with Dr. Dubchak. She was very rude and practically called me a druggie. I never asked for drugs at all. Tried to explain to her what joints hurt and without a test or anything said it was Fibromyalgia and she could not help me. I have never felt so bad about a doctor visit. I will never go back and she owes me an apology. I still may get legal help. At the very least will talk to the AMA. I left in tears. By the way the girls in the office were great. Very kind and helpful.

Very happy with Dr. Dubchak as my rheumatologist. She is soft-spoken and kind. She is very thorough and quite willing to explore other treatment options. She recently sent me to pain management as part of my treatment. I would recommend her to anyone.

Very disappointed in her methods of treatment. When I tried to ask a question about the current treatment not working, she hurled insults at me about my posture and weight. Totally uncalled for...does she think I don't have a mirror in my house? Was also treated with steroids for too many months and am now paying the price with it affecting adrenals and several other organs. Would never recommend her to chronic pain patients.

Excellent provider and office staff. Always friendly and welcoming, and answers any questions I may have (I call the office a lot). So thankful for finding this office. I have a rare disorder, so finding a doctor that actually took the time to rule out everything possible was amazing. If you are looking for an office that not only has an phenomenal Doctor as well as office staff, this is where you need to go!

I called on 03/07/2016 for an appointment for a consultation and spoke with Judy. I identified myself as a new patient. She asked me questions about what treatment I've had and when I mentioned 'pain management,' she immediately said 'the doctor does not prescribe pain medication; and, in fact repeated that a few times without 'hearing' the rest of my story. She made me feel like I was shopping for drugs. I made the appointment, but canceled the next day. Just bad PR and not going there.

Dr. Dubchak listened to what I had to say, answered all my questions, scheduled appropriate tests, went over test results with me. When it was all said and done, she told me honestly, there was nothing she could help me with and recommended I see a neurologist. My only complaint is where the office is located. For the type of Dr. she is, the office is to far to walk to from the parking lot. The walkway has shrubs growing into it that you must walk around, all around messy and not kept.
