Answers my questions and gives complete answers. Visits seem more like a conversation than ticking off details on a chart. I also really appreciate the option to have my annual check-in in Glenview rather than driving downtown.

See my first answer—in particular, Dr. Brenner was very relatable, engaged, informative and clear in “translating” preliminary determinations and suggested next steps (and why). Encouraged questions instead of merely tolerating them, and took the time to explain matters respectfully and clearly. Inspired confidence, trust and hope.

See above, but also loved that he was very open about what he knew or didn't know, or believed and didn't believe to be true. I appreciated his honesty so we could focus on where he could assist me and not waste time on things he couldn't help with.

world class doctor. clearly and thoroughly explained exactly what was going on with me, why it was happening, describing it using easy to understand analogies, detailed treatment options and treatment path, provided probability of "success" with each option and discussed with me how I might define success for myself since each patient's measure of success is different given nature of condition.

Dr. Brenner is the consummate professional. He knows your condition, its plan of treatment and has a fantastic bedside manner.Dr. Brenner cares. The entire staff of the GI department at NMH is top notch. Years ago, I called to get an appointment with a gastroenterologist. The call taker asked me a series of questions. She recommended Dr. Brenner.
