I saw my cardiologist at UChicago Med Center yesterday for a preventive care check up. I do have a slight problem with high cholesterol which is under control. I don’t live in Chicago but pass through several times during the year. I see my doc at our medical center because he is terrifically informed and up-to-date with current research and practice. I could not find a better cardiologist in Chicago, no matter what the rankings say. And going to the medical center at UChicago helps support the university. Also, when I am in Chicago if possible I stay at the Quadrangle Club (where I am posting from). Alumni can help support UChicago by utilizing some of the services it provides as well as through direct donations. From the news in this thread it seems to need all the help it can get.
