I was recommended to meet this Doctor from a trusted friend and obviously my expectations were high. I have to say that I am glad to have made a decision to visit her. Dr Panitch is genuinely concerned about her patients health. I do believe she does her homework and recommends treatment that targets the problem and not the symptoms alone. I will recommend this doctor to anyone...and anyone who is undecided, I would say go ahead and you will see the difference between a general Internal medicine doc and Dr Panitch!!

I wish I could write a review about Dr. Panitch, would have loved to have given her a 5 star rating if I could have made it past the unorganized and misinformed office staff.I set an appointment. On arrival, the receptionist tells me I need to pay $180 due to a deductable of 750. I was confused and told her I've gone to many other doctors... and for a general check up, I only pay a $25 co pay. No, she insisted I have to pay $180, even though its in network with my insurance, Cigna.I cancelled the appointment and left in confusion. I called my insurance and they were confused too. The Cigna rep told me "no, you should definitely only pay a co pay of $25 because you're in network". The Cigna rep then called Dr. Panitch office while I was on the phone. Cigna then told me "Dont worry, there was a confusion, but they said the office manager will call you back and straighten it out".Nobody ever called me back.. Total failure.

Dr. Panitch is a wonderful find, a board certified internist who also uses holistic and Eastern medicine. She really listens and spend quality time at each visit.

I spent YEARS seeing dozens of physicians in Chicago, many with gold medals in their office for service, and no one could properly diagnose my illness. Then I discovered Dr. Panitch and her first comment was, "Somebody is missing something." Three weeks later I had a positive diagnosis. I have never met a more caring, dedicated physician. In a medical culture that prefers to MEDICATE every problem, Dr. Panitch listens first and then explores every option for improving your health. Outstanding care!!

Do not waste your time with this woman. She came highly recommended, so I thought I`d give her a try. I came to her with a health issue that I was nervous and confused about. She told me she didn`t

Okay. I`m even more angry than I was. I`m about to report her to the board of whatever. She canceled my prescription without telling me. No call. Just denied it. It`s important - and no I`m not a

I appreciate you having more of a naturalistic outlook, but at the same time would like there to be more of a knowledge of natural hormone therapy.Also, I would appreciate if you would listen more to the patient's symptoms and less to the numbers from the lab results. I think the numbers are good for a general guideline, but not as a hard and fast rule.

I`ve had the same experience with Dr. Panitch. She seems to diagnose everyone with wheat and dairy allergies, without even doing a basic exam. I went to her for my annual pap,etc., and she didn`t even
