Could not have been more rushed. Does a quick assessment and is out the door before you can ask any questions

Exact same experience as the precedent comment on this page. No hello or goodbye, not listening to details i can provide or to questions.And overall no diagnostic except do physical therapy, which i already did for 3 months with no result. I really don't recommend if you are looking for a bit of humanity.

I saw Dr. Nam for a shoulder problem. Dr. Nam entered the room without knocking at the door or introducing himself or greeting me, and without looking me in the eyes. He sat down and looked at the computer screen, and discussed the findings of my MRI with his PA. He checked the range of movement of my shoulder, and told me his diagnosis. I have numerous tears in my shoulder. Dr. Nam claimed that that those were not the reason for my pain without further explanation. It was very difficult to receive exhaustive answers.

Dr Nam did a reverse shoulder replacement on my right arm, which was hanging by threads of a rotator cuff injury I'd neglected for years. Before surgery I could barely lift my arm to shoulder height but I now have hugely increased range of motion and virtually no pain. Dr Nam seemed honestly invested in my recovery and was excited at each visit when the x-rayas looked good and I was improved. I recommend Dr Nam highly! and his PA Isobel is amazing.

Saw Dr. Nam at his 3000 N. Halsted office. Did wait about 25 minutes but once I was called to the exam room both he and his PA gave me a thorough exam and all the time I needed to relate history of my knee injury. Dr. Nam recommended an MRI and before I left his office, his assistant (Kristina) had gotten approval from my insurance company and found me two MRI sites that were close yo.my home and easy to get to on public transportation.

I almost walked out of the visit. He was very rushed and hardly listened to me when I talked. There was a resident/intern in the room with him and instead of talking to me and telling me what was going on, he explained everything to the resident. Front office staff is very nice. Overall office/waiting room area looks rundown. This is my second bad experience with IBJI - I won't be going back. I highly recommend Shirley Ryan Ability Lab. Those people are pros.

Dr. Nam was referred to me by my podiatric surgeon. Dr. Nam is fully invested in helping his patients. Last summer I fell and fractured my knee. Fortunately, it wasn’t serious. He x-rayed it, wrapped it and gave me a knee brace to wear. I have severe arthritis in my knees and get cortisone injections a few times a year. He’s smart, precise, fastidious, and gentle.

Terrible visit. Did not say hello and Did not acknowledge or look me in the eye. Did not listen to my concerns or seem to care about me at all. Was very condescending and dismissive. Terrible experience. Would NOT recommend!
