5.0 star star star star starDr. Isak made a typically very uncomfortable experience far more comfortable. I sincerely appreciate her willingness to listen and guide me through our visit. Thank you to Dr. Isak for your incredible manner and help and comedic relief.

5.0 star star star star starShe was wonderful!! She took the time to study my chart and ask questions to truly learn about me as a patient. Sometimes doctors can come off cold, and very routine. She definitely was not one of these doctors. She made me feel heard and like I mattered as an individual. I would highly recommend her to others.

5.0 star star star star starI am a first-time mom, and Dr Isak delivered my baby six weeks ago. She was great throughout what was obviously a stressful time for me and my husband. Throughout the labor and delivery and afterward, Dr Isak was knowledgeable, calm, kind, supportive, and thorough. She exhibited the same traits and level of care at my six-week postpartum appointment. She is an excellent doctor, and I highly recommend her.

5.0 star star star star starBoth Dr Isak and Rita made me feel so welcome, calm and distracted me from the procedure. They were honest, clear and transparent about my treatment. They answered my questions and offered excellent quality of care. I have already told my friends what a nice experience I had so they can book there in future

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderI felt really rushed during my appointment with Dr. Isak. I had lots of questions about labor and decisions I could make for my own labor, and I hoped she would help me think through them by providing advice and insight. But instead I left feeling like most of them were silly and that I should do my own research but still most of it would be useless. She mentioned twice that she needed to leave for another appointment, though she only spent 20 minutes with me.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Isak listened, was thoughtful, approachable, and considerate. She was professional and made me very comfortable. We came up with a plan and I left feeling cared for, seen, and confident. I wish I had found her years ago.

5.0 star star star star starShe was the best doctor I’ve ever seen. A Women’s wellness exam can be awkward and can make someone self conscious but she made me feel very comfortable, had a great attitude and made me feel like I could trust her.
Disclosures

External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
