Dr. Persell advocates for his patients health and is genuinely concerned for their over all well-being; mental, physical. Since I have been seeing him, my health has improved immensely. I have gotten my first colonoscopy, do routine mammograms and see a therapist. His suggestions are impactful and his time and diligence is invaluable. Northwestern is lucky to have a doctor who listens, respects, understands a patient’s concerns and provides tremendous feedback and care. He is a thoughtful physician and his bedside manner is pleasant and positive. You can tell he is enthusiastic about seeing patients and follows-up with the most current practices in medicine today. Am truly grateful he is my doctor. It

Dr.Persell is an outstanding doctor!! His input, his knowledge of my health situation and his advice makes sense. I was even given the opportunity to change doctors and go to another hospital and i refused it!! I will never change doctors or hospitals as long as it is up to me!! I appreciate you all very much!!
