Leslie Grammer

I wasn't going to write a review because I just don't like negativity, however after feeling like I've been taken advantage by two doctors affiliated with Northwestern Hospital I feel like I have to say something. I had an appointment with Dr. Grammer for food allergy testing. I met with the RN and gave my information, sat in the office for about 30 minutes waiting for Dr. Grammer. When she finally did arrive she seemed rushed, hyper and somewhat disorganized. She sat down and asked why I was there, when I told her I was there for food allergy testing she quickly said "we only test for peanut allergies," and then she walked out. I was stunned by her dismissive and quick reaction. She returned with a handout (one sheet of paper) depicting images of foods that cross react. That was it. She handed that to me and walk out. I was baffled. I left and am still paying for a visit that was billed under a CPT code for a new patient orientation and 45-60 minute visit.

Waste of my time and money! Refused to test me twice for what I came there for because I didn't fall within her range of breathing readings. I told her this is normal for me 100% normal. A month ago I couldn't walk 40 yards. I truly believe it was my medication. Was just looking for a confirmation. Spent most of my time with her PA. Avoid her unless you want to be sent home with a symbicort Rx after driving 50 miles to see her twice. Waste of my time and money!

Good, methodical, thorough, competent, Doctor. Short and to the point but patiently and deductively talks through everything with you.

She was friendly and well educated! Would definitely see her again for allergies.

Very nice person, but did not adequately address my concerns. I took 3 hours out of my workday to see her for assessment of MCAS; I have many reasons to believe I have it, and I was very prepared for the appt, armed with a detailed medical history. She seemed primarily concerned with the fact that I have multiple medical conditions and lack a good PCP to manage it all. I had to ask her repeatedly about what she thought was going on and the only thing she said was "I don't know." That's fair enough, but she didn't seem interested in pursuing it. She ordered a serum tryptase test as almost an afterthought, and failed to even mention any of the other common MCAS-marker tests out there. I won't be going back.

I can see where some patients might not connect with Dr. Grammer. She's clearly very smart, knowledgeable and has a lot of experience, but might not have the bedside manner you are hoping for. Don't let that dissuade you. I am a long-term patient, and I think she is one of the most engaging, intelligent, creative doctors I have seen. She obviously has a passion for medicine, and will work with patients to figure out what is wrong. I can see where some patients might not connect with Dr. Grammer.

Not engaged well in the details of her own practice.

I have been going to Dr. Grammer for an ongoing, relatively rare condition for many years. I am a well-educated professional (but not a doctor) and Dr. Grammer seems exceptionally intelligent. As a result, I understand that other reviewers may not feel connected to her (i.e., may not be impressed with her bedside manner), but if you want excellent medical care and you have a condition that falls within Dr. Grammer's wheelhouse, do not hesitate to go to her. She really knows her stuff.

One of the best allergists in the country. I have moved from city to city in the past 20 years for work and have gone to allergist in those cities to treatment my multiple of allergies and she is the only one who clearly identified what I was truly allergic to and she treated me so I know exactly what to avoid. The other doctors I saw never when into depth to find out I was allergic to several things. Thank you Dr. Grammer for your excellent service and your vast depth of knowledge.
