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. Favia had me schedule a 6 mon follow-up but failed to tell the nurses why I was there when I showed up for the appointment. 45 mins later and there was no contact from the Dr who was at another office. Nurse just decides to draw 4 vials of blood just in case he wanted blood results. Dr. Favia failed to follow-up with lab results, this was the second time I had to call to get my results. I asked questions as to why I was not being treated well as a patient and my concerns as to why I was asked to come in 6 mons later but they had no clue why. Dr. Favia called me and was very terse and told me that his staff was more important than his patients and he didn't want to lose his staff and told me to fine another doctor and gave me 30 days notice. I feel like a victim of their negligence and poorly ran office. There seems to be a pattern of losing staff at this office if he would rather just get rid of a patient who asks to speak to the office manager to discuss the issues experienced.

Favia was merely OK when he worked with Alpine Family. He has become negligent and intolerable since getting his own practice. He has expressed immaturity and jealousy issues. If you see a specialist or go for extensive studies, he will not treat you the same. He behaved betrayed and ignored my concerns for years. Even mocking me when I bring in a list of concerns expecting answers stating that "I got my monies worth this visit"

Awful primary care. We like Dr Favia, too bad he is never there when you need him. Healthcare provider should be helpful and knowledgeable. Twice in emergency we ended up with other member of the staff. Appointment was rushed and misdiagnosed. Very unprofessional culture around the office.

My family of 6 have gone to Dr Favia since he was at Advocate (over 15 years). Since moving to the new office we have experienced a wild, terrible ride. Our daughter was treated awfully by the front office when we needed help most, lied to and repeatedly misguided all in an attempt to see her Doctor in a emergency situation. We are heartbroken as a family and are seeking a new office. I cannot in good conscience recommended this office.

My whole family saw Dr. Favia for years. He listens intently and doesn’t rush you. He communicates clearly and checks up on you even after your visit. The nicest doctor who helps you get to the “bottom” of things. He diagnosed my MS just by me telling him 2 unrelated issues I was having. We moved away and miss having such an attentive and caring doctor.

Dr. Favia is the only primary physician I will ever see. I have had to wait a little while here and there for an appointment or in the waiting room but it is a doctors office! Fantastic doctor. His demeanor is friendly yet professional and has called me to get information about referring another patient to a clinic I've gone to for other health needs. Obviously protecting both of our confidentiality. Best primary doctor I've ever had.
