He's beyond being the BEST doctor ever. He is VERY smart. Rarely does he not understand what my issues are & how to care for them best! If he has questions, he says so. He looks into who is best for my symptoms. That's how he found Dr Brenner (GI) for me. Just a phenomenon professional. Affable, kind, smart. Perfect!

Dr Lobue has been my go-to, thoughtful, quarterback of a primary care physician for decades. I always appreciate his counsel and the ways he walks me through test results and findings of other specialists. He is my trusted doctor, and I think of him as a friend. He takes the time needed to give thorough assessments and next steps which I really appreciate.

He is most excellent doctor I've ever had. He knows how to administer preventative health care without prescribing medicine unless absolutely necessary to restoring my health issues. He explains the body processes/ function so clearly if a procedure is necessary. I've always noticed over the years he always cares very much for doctor/ patient relationship concerns and taking time to spend with each patient and it has so relaxed me in every appt as I've never felt rushed in talking out my questions.

Pleasant, smart, thorough without adding alit of med or antibiotics advising if relevant to give body time to heal. But always advising for me to call or make appt specific time if needed . Personally i feel giving body time to heal if my doctor feels is a good option for me to try first is so honoring to God who is creator of giving each of us bodies physically capable of healing on its own. But of course he will consider first the extent of the illness and how much med is or is not needed .

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.
