Doctor Samant is an outstanding doctor. He cares about people and doesn't rush to do surgery on patients. When he does surgery he is very caring to his patients. He has another option, other than going downtown Chicago for me to see him. I so glad that I can talk and sing with no problems because I am a music teacher who needs both.

Overall I'm pleased with my follow-up appointments.The doctor has been professional, as have been all of the staff that I've come in contact with during my visits. But I would like to see the doctor, any doctor, spend more time with me when I do have a question or concern about my health. I know that the standard time these days with patients these days seems to be 15 minutes or so. My visit was around 5 minutes. My concerns about feeling fatigued and my ability to still not taste most foods wasn't really addressed. It was if I wasn't being heard.
