Dr. Mircea Tudorel Iacob, MD

Ego driven doc who misdiagnosed my mother. He insisted my mother is diabetic but was reading her hemoglobin number, not hemoglobin A1C. When challenged he did not correct his error. Scary and should be brought before the board.

Waited 6 months for my appointment and then he cancelled it Friday evening when the appointment was scheduled for Tuesday morning. I called right away to tell them I need to see him, he never got back to me. Someone else called me back 2 days after the appointment was scheduled. Do NOT make appointments with this doctor

Very kind, knowledgeable. Spends a lot of time making sure you understand what is happening. Highly recommend.

As a patient in this department, you’re actually just paying to sit in the waiting room for ten minutes then called back to a room. Your vitals will be taken then you’ll be waiting another hour to hour and a half to be seen. I’ve never been seen on time. But if you’re fifteen minutes late (even though that fifteen minutes would’ve been used to sit and wait) you won’t be seen. Then you’ll see the dr for maybe five minutes.

First appt of day but still very late.

Dr. Iacob is part of the Neurosciences Division at Central DuPage Hospital (also referred to as Cadence Physician Group) and I have been seeing him for various years now. Before he came to CDH I believe he worked out of either Oak Brook Terrace and/or Melrose Park (Gottlieb Hospital). The office location is very nice - large office on the 4th floor of the outpatient center at CDH. I see him Dr. Iacob @ 4 times per year as I have had an ongoing serious migraine condition for many years. Dr. Iacob is said to be "very popular" with patients so you must schedule appointments well in advance to see him. If you are also a BOTOX patient like myself, the office also recommends separating "general follow-ups" and the BOTOX appointments so you may have extra time speaking to Dr. Iacob if you need to discuss medicines or just other general issues. I am very happy with Dr. Iacob overall and I have no plans of stopping my care plan with him unless he leaves the facility and/or some other unforeseen… circumstances occur. Dr. Iacob is a cool guy, very professional, and can even be funny at times :) ** I must also mention that Dr. Iacob's nursing staff (nurse practitioners, including Nurse Karey M.) are also fantastic. Several times I was having some questions or issues and needed some resolve, and while Dr. I was unavailable, his nurses have always returned MyChart emails or phone calls quickly and were very NICE and THOROUGH, never did I feel rushed off the phone. ONE OTHER TIME, I was having some on-the-fly issues that were bothering me and I called to see if I could somehow bump up my appointment by a week or so or get into the office quicker - by chance the office called me back and told me that while Dr. I was just too booked up, Nurse Karey (who still has all my records, notes, etc.) was able to see me THAT DAY if I wanted! This is a huge bonus to have a nice nursing staff! Would highly recommend. I also had some tests done by Dr. Kazkaz (one of Dr. Iacob's colleagues), and he also was very nice. Would recommend him, too.
