Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

All for show
If you have loved ones you care for, I recommend taking them to another doctor who will put them before overbooking his schedule. Dr Udani went 8 days without reaching out on a MRI scan he ordered, which showed the patient had a STROKE. When finally getting in contact, their office scheduled an appointment for TWO MONTHS OUT - and told the patient that they would not be discussing what they found until that meeting. Absolutely unacceptable. Is the goal to overbook and not have enough time to take care of your patients, or to provide actual care and support to them?

VERY disappointed...
In my case he rushed to make a diagnosis that turned out to be a misdiagnosis. His response was 'Oh well'.

Very unprofessional with NO follow-up as to patient wellbeing. Extremely disappointed with services rendered and would definitely NOT recommend to family or friends.

Its true, the patient who has been loyal to you for decades, has to wait 2-3 weeks to be seen. I don't think that scheduling through a hospital is the way to go. I think your staff knows your patients. Which ones they see 1 a year because they need you, and which ones are trying to see your weekly because they are lonely. Your staff can prioritize, where central scheduling can not.

Dr. Udani is a good doctor, however his staff is not. Only bad thing about him is that he thinks that his staff is doing right thing and that is somebody else's fault if things go bad. To be more precise he recommended I do MRI . I went to schedule appointment for MRI and they told me that they need MD office to call them once they have my MRI approved by insurance. More then month later still nothing. Bad experience but this site doesn't let you write a whole story

Dr. you are so busy that you can't even respond to my test for c- deff which I have been having for 3 weeks, I called 5 times to get the test, then called 4 times to get the results, finally at 7:30 they called to tell me I'm positive for c-deff .......do you know what it is like to go through this? Just think of going to a Chicago park with your kids and having to poop in the woods 2 times and pooping in your pants at Walmart, stracks ,tsc and 17 to 20 times a day remember who you are

Routine blood work daughter showed high results on two items. Had to call his office twice to get an opinion. Then his office called ordering new blood tests and ultrasound. Had to call again for results. He never called back and checked in. Had well visit scheduled in July with e practitioner because he was booked till January. She didn't look at file and asked about blood work. Then we I told her to check she said she was missing 2 shots. After she got shots found out she already had 1.
