I've been a patient of Dr. Massimo Cristofanilli since 2006. I live outside the Philadelphia, PA area. He is definitely 'My Angel Here on Earth.' Northwestern Memorial is incredibly lucky to have his expertise.

I feel very fortunate to have my care team. I literally feel I can never move away from Chicago (despite the horrendous Winters) due to the presence of this miraculous care team in this city.

It was obvious to me that my physician had reviewed and knew my medical history. I really appreciated that.
