I have been his patient for many years. He has become like part of the family. He knew my husband and knows my children. He really cares about his patients and spends as much time as necessary with them. He is a wonderful diagnostic technician. I could not ask for a better doctor.

He is very sweet and caring with my mom. He talks directly to her and gives her the respect she should have even though she's not totally there because of cognitive age issues. And he's always trying to do the best by her in every aspect of her life. He's just the best!

I have the Best Primary Care Physician I could ever want or need. He listens to my needs, takes all the appropriate care, makes sure of how we are working together as a team. He is interested in my well being, he let's me know how I am doing and any other things he sees physically from examining me, explaining my blood work and I couldn't be more Blessed to have him.

He is what you want your doctor to be. A person who cares, takes the time to listen to you. He does not just look at his computer and hurry you through check up like other doctors do these days. It’s that personal touch that is reminiscent of what doctors used to be like. It was so refreshing to find a doctor that is not just an extension of their computer, void of feeling to the human being sitting right in from of them. Dr. Zallik is quite special in his communication skills and care he gives his patients and I feel fortunate that he is my doctor. I feel safer now that I have a real doctor in my corner looking out for my best interests

Dr. Zallik is an exceptional and exemplary physician who consistently demonstrates the very highest standards of his profession. Read that sentence again and digest it. It is exceedingly rare to find a physician of his caliber these days. He LISTENS, truly CARES about his patients and I TRUST him implicitly. I would follow him anywhere and am incredibly grateful for his care. I am not alone in my assessment. Sadly, the same cannot be said of many physicians these days because of the outrageous demands on their time. He is one in a million!! I cannot say enough about him!

Actually it's Dr. Ned Zallik. He's the finest diagnostician mixed with an empathetic sense of what a patient needs. He can deliver bad news artfully, he has a wonderful (comfortable with himself) sense of humor. He radiates hope. Northwestern Medicine (Lake Forest) Hospital was tied at 10th in Illinois and the Chicago metropolitan area. The train for my scooter is Dr. Zallik. Count yourselves fortunate to have him on staff
