I also am surprised by the one star rating below. I have been a patient of Dr. Plotzker’s for many years. He has always taken as much time as I needed and answered my questions, although I didn’t have many because he explained it all quite thoroughly. He takes interest in me as a person, and always asks about my family. When i have been hospitalized, he always made his rounds in a timely manner, and still was not rushed. During my difficult pregnancy, he worked hand in hand with my OB. The year I was without insurance, he waived his part of the fees. Dr. Plotzker is very knowledgable in his field and a heck of a great person! Great bedside manner!

I am very surprised by the one star review by Keliss K. because I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Plotzker. And he has the reputation of being one of the best GI’s in this area. Even medical staff that work with Dr. Plotzker have glowing things to say about him and his level of competency. I have been referred to him on two different occasions. The first time I had a GI issue that no one else could pin point… but Dr. Plotzker nailed it. The second time for a routine colonoscopy. He treated me way back in 1990 and again this year(2015). His demeanor was just the same. In both situations, more than 24 years apart, I had a similar impression: knowledgeable, intelligent, personable and easy to talk to. One other factor I’m always interested in is where a doctor receives his or her MD. Dr. Plotzker went to Northwestern. There are many doctors around here who got their MD at some off-shore medical school because they couldn’t get into a school here in the states. Dr. Plotzker not only attended medical school here, but was accepted into what is known as «the Harvard of the Midwest» and one of the top institutions in the country. That says a lot to me. Of course where a doctor trained doesn’t make him a good doctor… so I will reiterate: he’s a darn good doctor. Do doctors put out the vibe that they are a bit rushed sometimes? Indeed. They have a lot of people to see… particularly in a specialty area like his. However I did not get the rushed feeling from him that Keliss K. apparently did. Maybe Keliss just caught him on one of those days, unfortunately. I took off one star, not for the doctor, but for the whole process of communicating, contacting and re-scheduling with the office. Not what I would call the most efficient office management system at his Florida Ave.office.

The worst doctor ever. Would not answer my questions, would not take the time to listen to me explain. Only spent less than five minutes in the room each time I saw him. Horrible attitude.
