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.

Dr. Sylora did my prostatectomy on March 26. I am extremely happy with the results. Slow for the first couple of weeks and it's been getting better every day. Everyone I have dealt with has been extremely professional and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Sylora for surgery. He did a wonderful job and I couldn't be happier with the results.

I have had nothing but problems with this office. They have terrible communication and are not prepared for appointments. I had a bunch of issues with scheduling my appointments and then they charged me for the wrong office visit (costing me an additional copay) - refused to correct at first but eventually did. I am glad I stayed on top of it. No one in the office returns phone calls (left 3 messages prior to my surgery and did not receive a call back until after my surgery was over). Recently, I had an online visit (over two weeks ago) to review my ultrasound results and he did not have them (ultrasound was done 5 weeks prior). I had to give him the results that showed up in my online chart. He said he'd get the rest of the results and call me back. Still have not heard from them. I asked why would he even call me without having the results. That was the entire point of the call. Every time I think it'll get better it doesn't.

Had to have prostrate surgery and Dr. Sylora was exceptional from start to finish. Surgery was successful and he was easy to talk to and very upfront and helpful. Would highly recommend him and his staff.

Dr. Sylora is a wonderful doctor. He is great at what he does. He is very caring and down to earth. I whole heartily agree you will not find another Urologist that is more caring and at the same time has the skill-set Dr Sylora has. I should know as an OR Nurse for the last 30 years. He is the best!

I was in Palos hospital after a Aquablation procedure. A blood clot needed to be removed quickly and Dr. Sylora came to the hospital at midnight for an emergency surgery and removed the clot. Thank you so much Dr. Sylora.
