Dr. Pillai the best I ever had
Always professional and listens to your concerns. He personally calls you and makes sure your doing well after procedures!That is very uncommon in these days...He is a terrific physician and I highly recommend him for your GI concerns and care.
Dr. Pillai has always shown me respect. He has listened to my concerns and answered my questions. Although he is a very busy Dr., he has never made me feel like I was taking too much of his time. I feel he is a good Dr. and perhaps even more important, a fine human being.
Dr Pillai is great! The staff is friendly and efficient.
Dr. Pallai was very informative and courteous.
Dr. Pillai is phenomenal. He communicates clearly and effectively, and I always feel heard when meeting with him for any of my questions and concerns. The offices and staff are all incredibly helpful. I'm grateful to have such a knowledgeable doctor in the Chicagoland area.

I was referred to Dr. Pillai by my General Surgeon. From the time I walked into the Door of the office Until I left, it was a good experience. The Receptionist was pleasant and informative. The Nurse was very professional and nice. Dr. Pillai was WONDERFUL. He listened to the reason of why I was there and my concerns. He explained everything in great detail of what he was going to do and just gave a sense of comfort throughout the whole process. I went in a basket case and left calmer than I have been in days.
So, if you are looking for a Great Gastroenterologist, look no further, this Doctor is the one you want.
It’s feels good to know that some Doctors still have great bedside manners and that they are personable. It makes what you are going through a less scary.

Dr. Pillow is great. He personally follows up as to why I want to see him. He asks questions and fully explains what should be done and why it should be done. He is very kind, considerate and professional. Awesome doctor. I highly recommend him.

This is a rare and exceptional physician that dares to share his knowledge, time and expertise which all underscore his due diligence. He is a first rate practitioner with top notch skills and against the grain has a most engaging personality. He is not only wise and a caring physician he much appreciated. Thank you Dr. Pillai!

Everything was great and went along as planned. The staff was excellent and friendly.
Dr. Pillai is just a wonderful Dr.!! He is thorough, he takes the time to listen and does not make me feel rushed. He explains everything well and waits until I no longer have any questions before I leave and I understand everything. He is just amazing!!!
Dr. Pillai restored my hope in finding a solution to my ongoing G.I. issues. He took time to explain in layman‘s terms, which made it very easy to understand. Was comforting in his tone and bedside manner. Would highly recommend to anyone.
