Dr John A Kotis

I came to Dr. Kotis because I needed a tumor removed from my back. The surgery was performed and the tumor removed successfully . He sent it in for a 2nd biopsy (first biopsy was just a few small snips and was done at the dermatologist). Because he wanted to be exactly sure what it was by performing a 2nd biopsy he possibly saved my life. It turned out to be an extremely rare tumor (356 Americans diagnosed with it yearly, so 1/1,000,000) and immediately upon receiving the biopsy results, he himself made phone calls to the best specialists at Northwestern in Chicago. Later the same day, Northwestern called me and we scheduled an MRI to be performed (looking for any tumor cells Dr. Kotis missed) and appointments made with 3 specialists. As a former practice manager for another surgeon, this blew me away. Most of the time they just give referrals and the patient gets everything set up. Not Dr. Kotis. He called and got the ball rolling while I was in his office. I was overwhelmed with thoughts and emotion and he was phenomenal. He also answered any questions I had and even helped keep my hyperactive mom calm during the surgeries (even at 34 and married, mom still had to go lol). Top notch doctor with exceptional bedside manner. Beyond that, he is genuinely caring and truly wants the best outcome for me (he asked me to please have the Northwestern doctors share the results with him, which I will gladly do). I've been in the medical field for 15 years and I can count on one hand the number of doctors that are as wonderful and personable as Dr. Kotis. Now for the appointments and his Staff: Appointments- everything was on time. Another rarity in the world of Doctors. Staff- The best way to describe them (Sue, Elena, Zana) is "the gold standard". They were not only pleasant, but they also showed genuine compassion and were extremely warm and welcoming. They were all smiling and were happy to be there. I'd hire any on of them to work for me in a heartbeat. Not only will I be using Dr. Kotis should I have any other cosmetic/reconstructive surgeries that are required, but I will be referring anyone that is in need of one to him. Everything was top notch!!!

Dr. Kotis and his staff were great. I had an accident which led to my right thumb getting crushed. Dr. Kotis was able to quickly setup and perform surgery on my thumb, which was a success. He then set me up with physical therapy appointments. I'm happy with the results, and my overall experience was comfortable and relaxing.

I had great experience with Dr. Kotis and his staff. They answered all my questions and provided excellent care. I was really pleased with my results with them. I went here for rhinoplasty. I'm glad I went to see him. They went above and beyond.

I have total confidence in Dr. Kotis and am extremely pleased with the results!

I began researching surgeons and came across great reviews for Dr. John Kotis. I scheduled an interview with him and was immediately put at ease by Dr. John Kotis and his warm staff. Dr. Kotis answered all of my questions and was so genuine. He encouraged that I bring my husband on my pre-operation visit which made him feel included. Dr. Kotis gave me so much information regarding options available to me and about what would best suit my body. I had to call a few times with questions that would come up regarding restrictions to which Dr. Kotis personally answered. I would highly recommend Dr. Kotis to anyone wanting to see amazing transformation and perfection! He truly is an artist and is great at what he does. Thank you Dr. Kotis and staff for a wonderful experience.
