Dr Hardy is amazing! Prior to being with Northwestern, Dr. Hardy took care of a cancer diagnosis I faced in 2019. When the same diagnosis appeared again in Dec of 2024, I knew I wanted to be under the care of Dr. Hardy. Even though I had to drive nearly 3 hours for treatment, Being under Dr. Hardy's care was well worth it. She takes the time to explain everything to me and answer all my questions. I trust Dr. Hardy

Dr. Hardy took care of me in 2019 while at Goshen Cancer Center. Now that I was diagnosed again, it was really no thought to who I wanted to receive my care from. Dr. Hardy takes her time to explain everything that is taking place. Being told you have cancer is never easy, but Dr. Hardy gives her patients a since of reassurance that is so comforting.

I had total proctocollectomy 3 yrs ago at NM due to Crohn's disease. A small Cyst appeared on my stoma, started bleeding for > 2 months, Nurse Mary helped to see Dr Hardy, Colorectal Surgeon. Dr Hardy is amazing. She is compassionate, kind, caring & friendly. She took care of my issue in a single visit. Rebecca, PA assisted Dr Hardy in removing the cyst. Thanks so much for taking care of me. I'll definitely refer Dr Hardy to my family & friends.
