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.

NW should be embarrassed
Totally ignored family member's present state and discharged him in worse condition than when admitted to hospital. Treatment summary full of falsehoods. Do not bring your loved one to NW Inpatient Psychiatric unit due to the risk of being treated by Dr. Wiener. She never responded to one inquiry from family. Case manager communication was poor at best.

Wife's dementia
minimal wait times, she would talk to and ask my wife questions about things affecting her and then verify with me my wife's answers. Next visit she would question my wife if things she had complained about in the previous visit had improved or changed. She kept very good notes.

I worked with Doctor Wiener the end of September and a couple of weeks in October 2020. I cannot imagine a more patient focused professional. She worked with me on resolution for both my diagnosed issues but also fought for me to get to the next level of care. I highly recommend

My sister received numerous bruises under her "care" at Northwestern Hospital (CDH). Dr. Wiener had a financial relationship with Staff Providers, Inc (Park Ridge, IL). Staff Providers fraudulently searched my sister's house, so the house would be documented "unsafe." Dr. Wiener falsely diagnosed my sister requiring Memory Care (24/7 hour care) when Assisted Living was more appropriate. Dr. Wiener and her staff routinely lied to the family. My sister's id expired while under her care, so both her freedom and identity were taken. Then, Dr. Wiener consulted with the Monahan Law Group, so her estate and social security benefits were also taken. Submitted a 600+ page Medical Report to Probate Court--based on fantasy. Dr. Wiener is pure evil; she is the type of individual who will smile in your face and stab you in the back w/ a dull blade. I removed my sister from these bottom feeders. I got my sister's life back on track. If you must deal with Dr. Wiener...get a lawyer and take photos!

She refused to see me because I would not turn 65 until 7/23/18, about 18 months.
