My first time meeting with Dr. Kalainov. He is kind, excellent "bedside manner", truly listened to me, heard me, as well as carefully studied my medical history via shared MYCHARTS between UCHICAGO and Northwestern Hospital. He fully explained the possible treatment options, including pros and cons. He provided me with a sufficient amount of information, in layman's terms, to allow me to make an educated decision about how I would like to move forward.
