Chicago physicians
I normally post on the caregiver board but was hoping someone on here might be able to help me too. We are looking to get a second opinion from a breast cancer oncologist in the Chicago area. Live downtown but will certainly travel for a good doctor! Any Chicagoans out there who can give me a suggestion?
Thank you!

Northwestern Memorial
I was treated at Northwestern. My surgeon was Dr. Jacqueline Jeruss, my radiological oncologist was Dr. William Small, and my Medical Oncologist is Dr. Virginia Kaklamani. I found them all to be tops in their respective fields, very caring, and very available. In fact, Northwestern's Robert Lurie Cancer Center is hosting a free seminar in early October to answer questions about breast cancer and present new information. Dr. Kaklamani is part of the 4 person panel and Dr. Nora Hansen (Dr. Jeruss' partner) is also on the panel. I have forgotten the date, but I'm sure if you called them, they would gladly give you the information. Hope this gives you an option. Marilynn0 -

Loyola Medicine, Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center. Dr Shelly Lo. Just a wonderfull Place. Everyone very nice. Had my surgery, and am in treatment there. I am very happy with my decision to go there. Dr Lo is also a Assistant Professor of Medicine Division of Hematology and oncology. Good place to be.0 -
the U of C
My oncologist is Dr. Philip Hoffman at the University of Chicago. He is kind, caring, and brilliant. There is also another famous bc oncologist at the U of C, Dr. Funmi Olopade, who specializes in BRCA, which I have. I would highly recommend almost anyone at the University of Chicago.
