Dr.Cha is a Dr.that treats you like a person,not a paycheck.He listens to your concerns and addresses them as to your options of care. I had seen him in Valpo,when he left I followed him to Skokie,Ill.. He is definitely worth the drive.

Dr Cha gave me some quality of life back after my accident. He listens and answers all questions and concerns. Couldn't ask for a better Dr the last 8 years and there's no way id still be alive if it wasn't for the progress he made treating me.

Dr Cha is fabulous, however, if he has a temporary fill in doctor, he does not take the time to review your records. I have 2 crippling diseases & disabled having to be on a pain patch for over 8 years. The fill in doctor would not refill my patch & only gave me a medicine dose pain med. I’m bedridden, going thru severe withdrawals & in horrible horrible pain. I emailed & called the office, was told I have to take it up at my follow up visit in 45 days! Nice thing to put a single Mom thru over the Christmas Holiday. No compassion
