He has been my doctor for over 3 decades and he is superb. He listens to me and he is extremely thorough. I now live in Florida, but I continue to come in to Chicago for all my checkups.

I feel like a number and that there is no interest in getting to know me as a patient. I felt completely abandoned during my last 20+ days in the hospital with a flare. I just figured given the setbacks and complexity that I would be able to see the doctor. After all, isn’t that why we have appointments? I feel he is knowledgeable and skilled. I just feel the bedside manner could be far better. I leave wondering what I said or did wrong. Progress hasn’t been great, so that is also a point of frustration. I just expected a bit more urgency and involvement given things aren’t going well. I’ve done every test under the sun and done all I can as a patient.

Again, I was happy with my first appointment with this provider, but I'm new to the department, so I'm not going to give an A+ at this point.

Same as above answer. I truly enjoy and appreciate the personal treatment. Unlike most hospitals/clinics that treat you like it’s assembly line for medical care, Northwestern and Dr Hanauer have always treated me like an individual.

In the past, I felt like I was guarded on expressing how I was feeling and didn’t feel listened to. Today was better and I feel that we’re taking action steps to get to a root problem of my symptoms
