Northern Illinois Medical Center (NIMC)

"Everyone that I came in contact with was wonderful! All very friendly, they really cared about the patient as an individual."

Amir Heydari

"My husband and 16 yo daughter went with to meet and talk with Dr Heydari. We all came away with the same feeling.<BR> We were very impressed with Dr Heydari. He spent almost an hour with us. First he asked me why I wanted this surgery and what I knew about it. Then he went on to explain the procedure, complications etc. and the pre-surgical testing that he wanted me to have.<BR> He did emphasize that weight can’t be lost by just changing diet, but by a combination of diet and exercise. When I presented my list of questions, he smiled but did not hesitate to answer them. He even complimented my daughter on by telling her that she was asking very intellegent questions. Again, I thought he was terrific, office staff was very friendly. I have no misgivings of him doing my surgery. I can't think of one negative thing to say about him."

Peter MacDonald

"Dr MacDonald has always been a wonderful listener. He works WITH his pts. I have always felt very relaxed and at ease with him. He values his pts oppinions and working with them as a team."
