Dr. David Frim

Absolutely the best neuropthamologist there is. Kind bedside manner and after 6 months of getting no where, Dr frim is the man. My daughter, caitlan pawlowski has has shunts put in by
Dr. T. Alden, stay away from him, terrible bedside manner and dosent listen to his patients! Seek out Dr Frim at university of Chicago! !!

Absolutely a top Neurosurgeon –in the Mid west at least if not nation wide – and a top researcher for NIH also.

OK, so no one ever wants to have to go to see a Neurosurgeon.
In fact, I can guarantee you, the words «I am sorry to tell you, but it the tests revealed you have…» will do more than just rock your world… Life will never be the same, but, you can get past it – way past it. Once you begin to process, I suggest that you check and see if you can get into Dr. Frim.
If you, or someone you love finds themselves in this situation, check and see if Dr. Frim will accept your case. Your doctor needs to refer you to him.
He is fantastic. Kind, generous, works with you, but is extremely exacting.
His standard of care is amazing, he works to ensure that you are taken care of and receiving the highest level of medical attention possible.
Sherri his nurse is fantastic, his office staff is unbelievable. I was late for one appointment– harried and worried, I shared this with the receptionist. Her comment was, «honey, you know Dr. Frim. Even if he would have gone home already, and he would come back happily to see you. «
This sort of treatment is the norm for this fantastic surgeon and his staff.
Oh– also a funny story– My father had a minor back surgery and ask one of Dr. Frims residents if they had heard of his surgeon at Northwestern– Of course– Dr. Frim had trained him!
I have trusted him with my life and still do. The fact that I still have it is due in a big way to him!
