"Dr. Lattin took the time to answer all my questions, and we jointly decided to have my procedure done as quickly as possible. Unfortunately I had to set up the procedure with another doctor at Illinois Alliance due to availability. I am sure the doctor doing the procedure will be comparable to Dr. Lattin (although I am sure I would have been in as capable hands with either Doctor)"

"I have only had great experiences with the professionalism and personality of Dr. Lattin in managing my issues. But, reaching the office to schedule appointments and/or procedures has not been great. It sometimes requires several calls and messages to have the office call me back - if they ever do. Something needs to be done to their phone system to make “customer service” a priority!"
