Steve Handoyo, MD

I have seen Dr. Handoyo for my allergy and sinus issues. He’s very patient with my many questions (and I’ve been known to ask A LOT!) and is also very thorough in explaining how to treat the issue. I’ve also had to go through some tests for possible asthma as I had a cough that lasted for about 2 weeks. Dr. Handoyo and the team of nurses had me take a series of breathing tests, which all seemed overwhelming, but they were all good about explaining why we were doing the tests and what the results meant for me. I really feel at ease whenever I’ve had to see him and feel very much like I’m taken care of after I leave my appointment.
He also has convenient locations for those who live/​work in the city. I’ve gone to his LIncoln Park and Loop office. The Loop office makes it convenient to make appointments during the work week and the Lincoln Park office is a quick train ride from work too.

At first, both my wife and I were very anxious when our daughter was diagnosed with a milk allergy, but Dr. Steve was there for us very step of the way. He explained everything to us (from how to use an epi pen to what alternative foods we could feed her, like substituting almond milk for cow’s milk). Even more important than making us feel at ease, though, was how he treated our daughter. He was always really good at reading her emotions so he knew when to be silly, etc. Doctor appointments are always better when your baby is enjoying herself too! And the best news of all is that our daughter (who is now 2 and a half) officially just passed her milk food challenge — which means she officially outgrew her allergy! We would definitely recommend Dr. Steve as a knowledgeable and patient doctor, and for how he treats parents as well as kids!
