Our first meeting today went smooth. Dr Boike was very familiar with my history, obviously having spent time reviewing my file. There were very few items that I was prepared to brief him on that he didn’t already know. He was also pleasant during our telephone meeting. I look forward to meeting him in person at my next appointment.

Dr. Boike is Intelligent, thorough, caring, personable, approachable, and closely listens during visits. He doesn’t rush. He explains things in a way a person with minimal medical knowledge can understand. He asks if there are any questions or concerns before the visit is concluded. He then summarizes what he said during the exam/visit.

Dr. Boike had a professional manner that was personable. He was able to put medical terms into words that were understandable. He thoroughly explained my condition (which was far more than my local GI doctor did), what causes this illness, gave suggestions for me to improve my health, ran tests to rule out other conditions, and check on liver enzymes, as well as reassure me. I went into Dr. Boike's office, a terrified patient and left, feeling relieved I was being treated by a doctor who was not only highly qualified, but had very good communication skills, and who cared..As for Northwestern Memorial, we have had excellent care and treatment for family members from thyroid cancer, salivary tumors, cardiac issues, to polycystic kidney disease (Lurie's). We trust this medical facility.
