Since the other thread on Dr. Yun seems to have died...

Does anyone have any recommendations for GI's in Chicago? I've been treated mostly at Northwestern (had a brief consult with Dr. Yun - have no strong opinion either way), but don't have an official GI relationship there.

Any help would be appreciated!

I would not recommend Northwestern for IBD.
At Rush: Dr. Mutlu, Dr. Keshavarzian, Dr. Swanson
At U of C: Dr. Rubin

I was with Hanauer for 10 years. I was not happy with him. He overlooked many things and never ran tests even though I complained about not feeling well and bleeding. I decided to switch when he went to Northwestern. Now I'm with Rubin and he tested me and I had a 12" stricture. I had surgery to take it out last week. So far I'm much happier
