"My visit to Dr. Gluskin's Office was brief and comfortable. I was asked some questions about the symptoms I've been experiencing and the Doctor advised it would be a good idea for me to have a Colonoscopy and an endoscopy. Both tests were done on October 9, 2024 at St. Joseph's Hospital in Chicago. Very pleased with hardly any after effects after either tests. Thank you, Constance A. Sabatka 10/22/24"

"Difficult abdominal surgery (colectomy) with excellent results in August 2023. And no cancer. Now one year later the surveillance colonoscopy (08/26/24) also revealed two much smaller polyps easily removed during this procedure. Also benign with no malignancy. No cancer. Now starts a longer three year interval for my next precautionary surveillance colonoscopy. Relief. Miracles do happen! A collaborative approach with my PC physician, GI Alliance and Dr. Lawrence Gluskin, and with my surgeon Dr. Mark Connolly at Ascension St. Joseph Hospital Medical Center in 2023. Medical expertise at its BEST! Collaboration and excellent communication. Perfect results. Relationships matter. And God’s hand in every result. Thank you. Raymond Kufeldt."

Had heartburn nearly 24/7 for many months before him and my primary care doctor were able to get it managed.
