Doctor was very distracted and was checking phone or pausing a lot without talking. Communication is an issue that needs to be worked on. Empathy and compassion was not seen but rather doctor was just acting like a business person. Doctor helped and didn't say anything bad but it didn't feel like a friendly and trustworthy interaction.

Dr Zucker gives very good care to his patients . And explains everything to you.
March 13, 2026
Dr. Zucker had been on my radar from 2018 when I was in ICU and he figured out why I was having issues with feeling as if I would pass out. He had me taken from a room to ICU where I would be easier to treat If something went wrong and he continued to work on my problem until he discovered that it was due to two medications that were not working well together. He removed me from one of them and I've not had any recurrence of such issues. I was not able to make an appointment with him when my then cardiologist retired but I did get into the NorthShore Skokie Hospital system with a different cardiologist and when he was retiring, I was able to become one of Dr. Zucker's patients. I have never regretted that choice. He has always been upfront about my medical Issues and, in my opinion, has often gone overboard with due diligence. He is pleasant, concerned, communicative, informative, exceptionally thorough, explains everything using terminology I can understand and suggesting alternatives, procedures, goals and recommending doctors in other departments when necessary. He covers everything with me so that I know where I am and where I stand with whatever it is that I have. And he is open to hearing from me if I have questions about anything. I have not ever had that kind of medical service afforded to me by any other cardiologist. In my humble opinion, he IS TERRIFIC. A real GEM.

January 11, 2026
Dr. Zucker recommended, among other things, a visit to another cardiologist to provide further information about insertion of a device into my heart, and rather than relying on my memory to remember to call him for an appointment, he wisely had the office of the other doctor call me to arrange that appointment.
