I live in the southwest suburbs and am in need of a new doctor office that accepts bcbs....I am already banded so just need a new doctor for follow-ups and fills. Can anyone assist me?

I also have BCBS, I go to UIC, 1801 w Taylor, in Chicago. My Dr.'s name is Elli. He is really nice. 312-996-9646

Most doctors dont accept patients already banded does you doc?

I have BCBS IL and I am with Dr. Nagel at Northwestern Memorial. It's a nice program.

Where is that scoutstar? Downtown?

Yes it is. If you work downtown it is pretty convenient, it is over off of Michigan Ave. Here is the website - http://www.nmh.org/nm/physician_nagle_alexander_p_5087

@ FAYFAYE, I believe so because we have a round table discussion while we wait for the doctor to call us in for our fills and there was a girl there who came from another doctor to him. I provided the number in my first post so you can check it out.

I'm getting so nervous! Im going to call everyone monday! Thanks so much ladies!

My surgeon was DR. Hungness @ Northwestern (same practice as Dr. Nagle) and he is great too all of the staff I have dealt with there has been great. Kaitlin Fiore (NP) did my last fill and she is awesome too! Good luck!

I go to Dr. Peter Mihalakakos in Joliet.....He is wonderful!!

I called his office in joliet and she's not sure if him or his partner wi take a already banded patients. This is going to be the problem for all doctors I hope she calls me back with good news

I also go to Dr Nagle at Northwestern...I like him and the staff is incredible. Kaitlin did my last fill. She is great so is the rest of the staff. Northwestern also has a lifestyle medicine group with great Drs, Nutritionists and shrinks. I like to get help from every angle...good luck to you!
