Dr. Marcel Hoffman is the best doctor at Northwestern Medicine. He is kind, compassionate, friendly, highly knowledgeable and his nurse Lauren and him are truly excellent. I am very happy with his skills and explains everything to me and gives me my after visit summary which is accurate and precise so I can look back at my instructions and directions.
