In patients' words

"Dr Anderson spent 7 minutes with me and I don’t feel like she addressed my concerns or was actually present with me while I was there. Another body, in and out the door."

— Patient review on Vitals/WebMD

"Dr. Mark Gendleman has to be the worst physician, regarding both bedside manner and expertise, I have encountered in all my life. He was unbelievable rude and belittling."

— Patient review on Vitals

"A board-certified dermatologist failed to diagnose a simple fungal infection because she would not listen to me and did not trust that I had any idea what was going on. This seems to be par for the course at Northwestern Medicine lately."
