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.

Patient’s Reviews from Advocate Christ Medical center Feedback Survey. April 2024 How likely would you be to recommend this provider to your family and friends? Score: 10 Extremely likely I have been with Dr. Bajaj for quite a long time now he is a great Doctor. Who cares about my health and my concerns sometimes he spends almost an hour with me, which I do feel bad due to the fact there are other patience behind me. He's very thorough very suggestive on different health regiments and an all-around great doctor when I met him I was in the hospital and he was my attending and I liked him so much that I started going to him as my primary physician. I would recommend Dr. Bajaj very highly prescriptions are filled on time. If there is any issue with the prescription interaction, he will call me and have me come in and discuss it with me , I will be with Doc until he retires. Thank you.

Saw Dr in November of last year. I have BCBS insurance. My copay for Dr visit is $15. Dr. Charged me $150 because they said they're not sure if my insurance would pay since I was a new patient. I paid them $150 in November. They advised me that if my insurance pays for the visit that they would send me the difference of money back. I never received any money back. I found out last month that my insurance did pay the doctor for my visit in December of last year, which for some reason the Dr. said was a specialist visit to my insurance company. That makes my copay $30. Regardless, the doctor got paid in full from my insurance and from me and never sent the difference of what should be $135 back to me. I called them 7 days ago about the issue and they still dont have a check for me. This issue is over 5 months old, and the Dr hasnt paid me a dime back yet. I am very disappointed in this Dr, how he performs business, and how he has handled this issue.

He about killed my dad and 11 years later my dad still has issues. The guy didn’t even have common courtesy to come back to fix his mistake. Maybe that was a blessing in disguise because if he made another mistake my father may have been dead.
