She was so thorough and made sure to address all of my concerns and went through everything again before she left me. She also didn't blow me off as other doctors have with my symptoms.

She completely dismissed my concerns because of my weight and then pushed bariatric surgery and weight loss pills on me even though I told her I was working with a nutritionist. I have never felt like less of a human than during this appointment.

My regular internist was not available for an appointment until two weeks later. My problem while not an emergency required prompt attention. The appointment staff suggested another doctor who had availability. Dr Philander was available. What a delight for me. Dr. Philander was thorough, professional, and helpful. She recommended that my swollen leg and ankle could be indicative of a blood clot and that dangerous possibility should be tested. She arranged a Stat appointment at Central DuPage for testing. I was tested at 8:30 pm, waited an hour for the radiology report which Dr Philander personally conveyed to me via phone at the hospital diagnostic testing waiting room. This level of prompt immediate care was greatly appreciated.
