Dr. Leung is a doctor that listens and makes good decisions. Cares about the whole person.
Dr. Sosenko is the best there is. I believe in him and always will believe in him. A 94 year old patient.
I have been seeing Dr Garapati for several years. He has taken very good care of me over the years. I highly recommend him. He is very caring and cares about me as a patient. He listens to my concerns and asks the right questions.
I visited Dr. McDonough at his New Lenox address for the first time and the appointment was everything you could possibly want. The staff was friendly and efficient. Dr. McDonough was amazing at putting me at ease and was wonderful in explaining test results and coming up with a plan of action.
Hello, my experience with Dr. Doeing has been very positive. My family doctor recommended a sleep study which is how I met her. She got the process rolling and I ended up with a CPAP machine. She’s pleasant and didn’t appear rushed either at my initial visit or follow up. My experience has been positive.
A doctor that listens and makes good decisions. Cares about the whole person.
Dr Walsh is the type of Dr I wish all were. Not only is he a kind and compassionate, he actually listens to his patients. Once diagnosed he then explains issues and treatments in layman's terms and answers all questions and concerns you may have.
Dr. Walsh is the best. His nurse, Amy is super. The receptionists, Dawn, Mary and Pam are wonderful and helpful.
