Dr. Schulman is by far my favorite physician at Northwestern. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, especially when it comes to the latest information on hormone replacement therapy. What truly sets him apart, though, is his ability to really listen and work collaboratively with patients to find the best solutions. His warm and lighthearted communication style immediately puts you at ease and makes you feel genuinely cared for.
