5.0 star star star star starDr. Glovsky was very professional and thorough when taking my wife and I on as new patients. He had done an excellent job of checking our medical histories, so he would be ready to meet us and jump right into any current medical issues we may have.

5.0 star star star star starVery friendly and professional. Asked us about our concerns. Had reviewed our history, explained everything, answered all our questions. Made suggestions, but not pushy. Addressed issues and made referrals. Best doctor visit and exam in years.

3.0 star star star star_border star_borderToo much follow up on my care. I feel like a child being told you are bad because you didn’t follow up on your homework task. Frankly I hate a lot of unnecessary tests when I feel great. I’m not looking for a major health issue.

5.0 star star star star starStraight to the point, in a nice way. I appreciate that. He was really busy, apologized three times for making me wait. He was thorough, answered my questions and made recommendations that I am following.

5.0 star star star star starVery honest, friendly, and comforting. He treats me as if I was his only patient, and takes the time to listen to my concerns. His recommendations for me are valid, and I am more motivated to listen due to his honest approach. Good guy! I highly recommend him to those who are looking for a primary care provider!

5.0 star star star star starListened to my concerns, discussed everything with me in detail without any sense of feeling rushed, gave me a very clear path forward with future plans set. Everything I want in a first appointment with a doctor.

5.0 star star star star starMy primary dr is great. He’s very professional and patient. I was even able to bring my toddler, and she was not having a good time. But, he still kept everything professional and helped me with what I came for.

1.0 star star_border star_border star_border star_borderHe is knowledgeable but not good at follow up. I left him 3 messages. 2 messages through the app and another by calling in. I finally left a message on the app with my regular doctor and he contacted Dr. Glovsky to ask him to answer my messages.

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderDr. Glovsky came across as condescending …. felt like I was being reprimanded because I had not been to a doctor in many years. Not much interest or encouragement to hear any explanation. He was very thorough, but bedside manner was lacking.
Disclosures
External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
