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.

Horrible
Don't Waste your time. A horrible greedy group of doctors who couldn't care less about patient care. They do not care if you're sick they'll let you go to the hospital or die before they see you. You'd have better chances getting treated by a back alley doctor. They care about money more than patients. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!! They're a reason they changed from DuPage Medical to Duly!!

Two weeks ago my wife had endoscopy and I had both endo and colonoscopy. We had some problems. Unlike our previous unkind gastro doctor, Mr. Song is a decent professional. He listened to us well and explained enough to us both at his office and after scopy. Nice! Though we were a little concern about his staff because of others' review posted here, Doctor Song's staff at scheduling, office, surgery, and result notice are nice too. Highly recommend Doctor Song!

Dr.Song is nice but never seems have coverage when gone and the staff is rude, and does not take time with their patients. They wasted precious time from hospital to next visit by then. 2 mos later mom has cancer and not so much as a pain from unfeeling office.

My husband is a patient and was having serious issues. This resulted in me calling to get him in for an appointment. I was told the nurse would call to let me know availability. I called back after waiting for 3 hours letting them know my husband was getting worse, and in serious pain, they assured me I would get a call back soon. We NEVER got a call. I am very, very disappointed, they could have at least called to let us know to go to the emergency room. I find this very unprofessional!

Beware! Doctors are ok but the nurses and office will not call you back even if you have an active infection. The nurse will call back and will say "if you call back, I may be on the phone because of high volume". She has the results I don't need to talk to her she can call the MD and get orders from the MD and carry out the order call the pharmacy for the prescription and just leave me a message that I can pick up my medicine from my pharmacy I think that's ok without violating the privacy law.
