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.

He is honest and forthright! He is very experienced and explained my condition so I could understand without a battery of tests and services. I have in 6 months taken his advice and reduced my numbers in weight, fat, A1C and sleep apnea. After seeing him I was relieved after 16 years of dealing with the DuPage Medical Group. He is an excellent Doctor. I highly recommend him. Their offices may not be to your liking but the health care you will get is the best.
