This was my first appointment with Dr. Bevan- I just moved here from Texas. She is an outstanding doctor- I was hugely impressed with her bedside manner; which includes her exam, history questions, and information about my disease. She is so down to earth and professional. I know that I have come to the "Mecca" of institutions, and now I know that I sincerely have the perfect doctor for my healthcare issues. I am exceedingly pleased.

Dr. Bevan is amazing and very thorough! I have been "without" a neurologist for a couple of years since my previous doctor left the practice but Dr. Bevan is just as awesome! So glad I found her.

Dr. Bevan went above and beyond any other experience I've had with a physician. Not only did she explain everything in detail but she actually ordered a STAT MRI & walked me over to get scheduled. She took care of everything and I cannot thank her enough! After MRI was completed she wanted us to stay to go over results. Dr. Bevan took time in between patients to go over in detail my MRI results. Then we came up with a care plan that included a hospital stay with more tests to follow. I can't explain the gratitude I have for Dr. Bevan and staff for helping me through this difficult health situation. I was discharged from the hospital after a few days and Dr. Bevan followed up with me personally @ 7:30pm the day before Thanksgiving. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Her care and compassion is out of this world and Northwestern should be thankful to have such a wonderful doctor on staff.

Dr. Bevan has continued to impress both myself and family members. She is very knowledgeable, through and actually shows a level of compassion for her patient which is very hard to find now a days. She listens and gets it. That is crucial for any good Doctor. Please let her know she is valued and appreciated.

I am very confident in this care provider. She spent much more time with me than I expected she would. This made me feel she had legitimate concern for my wellbeing and health. I will certainly recommend her practice to others seeking Neurological care.
