Looking for a specialist...

granitegardener said:Is there a decent ENT specialist in Chicago? Or honestly, I just need a recommendation for a hospital where I can get my nasal congestion checked out. A friend mentioned that regarding the rib issue, "you won't be satisfied" because they "just look at the nose with some kind of magnification," implying they lack cameras or other modern 21st-century tools.

That seems silly, since whenever I went in for a fiberoptic exam, they actually looked at my nose, throat, and vocal cords.

Regarding my rib, a friend told me "you won't be happy" because they "just look in your nose with a simple enlargement," implying they don't use cameras or any other modern 21st-century tools.

That's not true; they do use cameras. The first time I saw Dr. Bilic, he wasn't much for talking, but everything was handled fine. The second time, I saw his specialist, and that's when I got frustrated. We were discussing surgery and I had a ton of questions, but she kept stepping into the next office to ask the doctor for answers every single time. I guess it's fair on her part, but it made me feel awkward about asking things, so I didn't end up feeling properly informed about the procedure.

Can someone help me out—does anyone have a recommendation for a private nephrologist?

thanks🙂

Any recommendations for a cosmetic surgeon in Indianapolis? Or maybe somewhere nearby if there's a good option?

Who would you say is the premier specialist here in Miami?

Any recommendations for a cosmetic surgeon in Miami?

I'm strictly looking at private practices or clinics. Honestly, I don't think it's a smart move to head into a hospital right now—especially not the one here in Miami—unless it's a literal life-or-death situation.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a diabetologist in Chicago? I'm open to seeing someone privately—actually, that might be preferred—but my main priority is finding someone truly skilled. I guess I’ve had some pretty disappointing experiences with the expertise of certain private practitioners in the past, so I really want to emphasize quality over anything else.

Hey there! I can give you an honest recommendation: Dr. Kruljac at the Solmed clinic. She’s excellent.

Hey,

Looking for recommendations for a neurologist, a physiatrist, and a cardiologist here in Chicago.

Thanks

Hey guys, I need some solid recommendations for an ophthalmologist. Looking to check someone out in the Chicago, Pittsburgh, or Scranton areas. 🙂

I'm looking for a recommendation for a private dermatologist in Chicago who’s actually a sharp diagnostician...

A friend mentioned I wouldn't be happy with what happens at some places—apparently, they just do a quick check with a light and call it a day. No cameras or any of those modern 21st-century tools.

Go see Kalogjera over on Vinogradska street. He’s top-tier.

Hi everyone, I have a referral from my family doctor for an MRI on my right hand. Ideally, I’d like to get this done at Firulana street, but I was wondering if anyone knows what the current wait times look like there? My doctor also gave me two other options where they accept referrals: Medikol clinic and Affide Kalajžić clinic. If the wait at Firulana street is too long, which of those two clinics would be the better choice?

Greetings, I was hoping someone could recommend a good place to get a gastroscopy done right now. Honestly, there's zero chance of getting an appointment through my referral in my area—up north in the US—and I'm totally lost when it comes to private options in Chicago. My condition is getting worse by the day, and my GP is still dealing with COVID-19 fallout, while I'm over here really struggling. If anyone knows a reliable private clinic or a solid gastroenterologist who can see me ASAP, I would truly appreciate the help.

Arithera clinic

Do they have decent doctors there? Have you personally experienced their care
yourself? All I really care about is finding someone compassionate—someone who won't just rush through the procedure and treat me like a number...

Hey everyone

I'm looking for a general practitioner here in Chicago—any recommendations? Just moved to the area, so I need to find a new doctor fast.

t? It's really important to me.

I don't have any first-hand experience there, but they seem pretty solid to me.
