I have never had such an incredible visit with any GI i have ever had. Dr. Belleguarda (sp?) and every one i interacted with in the exam room were incredible. They listened and made sure I had every question answered and every fear addressed.

Dr. Bellaguarda is an amazing physician. She is caring, compassionate and takes time with me to answer any and all questions I have. She is the reason I still come all the way to the City to see her. I live over an hour and a half from Chicago and it's worth every minute. I know I am getting the best medical treatment.
