A Patient at Rush - Jan 2026
Dr. Abrams is one of the most knowledgeable, professional and caring doctors I have ever known in my life. He treats the whole picture of the patient, not just a symptom. There are very few doctors like him and I appreciate him greatly. He's a wonderful doctor and I feel safe in his care. I highly recommend him.

Today was my first time seeing Dr. Abrams I like the fact that he listened. My other doctor didn't seem interested in my situation. Dr. Abrams text me for my test results as soon as they were available
