5.0 star star star star starEvery time I see the doctor I have to give you all the same compliments on the doctor. I think you should do it every other visit it’s time consuming. Dr. Hill is a fantastic doctor. He gives you his full attention. He talks with you on the level that you understand and he is just a great great doctor. I have four doctors from Northwestern who I think are the greatest doctors to have on staff and Dr. Hill is number two. I was referred to Dr. Hill some years back by my therapist and I swear I would not go to anyone else. He has helped me with all the problems. Recommended other doctors when no one else was concerned he’s the best in the world.
