Dr. Favia is the best provider! We named our children from pediatricians to his office and they love him!
Dr Favia is a VERY caring & patient care giver. We've been seeing him for over 12 yrs & are very happy with his care.
Dr Favia always addresses any concerns or questions I have about my health. He is a great doctor and I recommend him to anyone who asks me about doctors.
Very good.
Dr. Favia is one in a million. He is so easy to talk to and with. Glad he is my physician.
Dr Favia will take extra time to make sure his patients get the best care.
Dr. Favia had all the records available. Discussed some options for a few problems. Got my reactions to his ideas. Thoroughly discussed the steps I was to take and will try for a specific time. I left feeling. confident.
I liked Dr. Favia's professionalism & health care.
Dr Favia listened to my concerns and address them all. He explained why he wanted to run any tests he ordered. He was the first new doctor I've seen in 35 years. His calm demeanor made me feel at ease. I would like to make him my new primary physician.
We have been seeing Dr. Favia for over 12 years now. He is the only reason we still go to Alpine Family Physicians.
Dr. Favia is a wonderful doctor and I've recommended him to several people. He's compassionate and has a great personality to go along with his vast medical knowledge.
care is excellent
I understand Dr. Favia is leaving A.H.G. and I plan to follow him.
my favorite doc
I come in every six months for a med check. Dr. Favia has been my doctor for the last 15 years. He is an awesome man.
I'll like the quality of care and service provided by Dr Favia. If I didn't I would shop.
Provider was most attentive and listened to all my concerns. Getting into my 60's soon and have some health concerns. Provider was able to advise in a clear concise manner.
Dr Favia is the PCP for my husband and myself. He takes great care of us. We love him! He's the best! He is always very caring and supportive of us.
excellent!
Dr Favia is Great it's like talking to a friend or relative!
very pleasant. In and out in short order. Rx refills are for 6 months so usually don't talk in between.
Dr. Favia has been caring for my father for the past three years and I was able to schedule a physical exam with Dr. Favia whom I now choose to be my attending physician.
it was very helpful.
Dr. Rabia is always pleasant and personable. Never been dissatisfied with my history of seeing him as my primary care physician.
I am very thankful for Doctor Favia's compassion and professionalism. He personally talk to my gynecologist to make sure that I was taken care of and called us home right after the procedure. I'm happy that I have a doctor that sees me like a person not a number.
I have moved from this town but would never switch doctors. Dr. Favia and Dr. X go above and beyond caring for their patients. They are the very best and an asset to this group. 5 stars!!!!!
The office visits are always very pleasant.
dr favia is excellent
Dr Favia is very understanding of my personal needs. His nurses go above and beyond to help and are always so pleasant which makes my visit even more worthwhile. Having a full team that works great together really shows, I can tell as a patient they put a lot of work in patient satisfaction.
Dr Fabia was great, & told me what Needed to hear not what I wanted to hear
as usual, very professional, prompt and informative.
Dr. Favis and staff were awesome. Was extremely thorough. Loved this! Recently switched after 14 yrs.
All of my interactions with the Staff and Doctor are always very positive and I always leave feeling I have received the best care possible! This is by far the best group I have ever had outside of my children's pediatricians, and now that they are adults they are all here.
Dr. Favia is always a pleasure to consult with and ask questions. He takes the time to listen and provide information and solutions for them.
Dr Favia always takes the time to explain the situation
Good visit. Very prompt; I had to do 0 waiting (I didn't even get a chance to sit down in the waiting room before they called me back). Dr. Favia was courteous, attentive, and answered all my questions thoroughly. Everything flowed so quickly - vitals check, to seeing the Dr, to the blood draw work. It was each person one after the other. I can't say much else other than this was a good visit for my routine check-up
Dr. Favia listened to my thoughts about my medical needs before his exam. Afterwards we discussed what he found and he provided three referrals to specialists as needed. Dr. Favia also wanted MRI and ulltra sound. Subsequently, Dr. Favia personally reviewed these test results with me over the phone and I am now scheduled to see a cardiologist,
I saw Dr.Favia for a 6 month med check. My experience with him for this visit as with all my visits with him have been very good. He is very knowledgable, courteous, respectful and professional. I am lucky to have him as my primary physician.
best doctor I ever had. can't say enough about Dr Favia. he is awesome
Dr. Philip Favia is my family doctor from years that has really helped me when I needed it .
Dr Favia has been my family of 6 physician for over 15 years. He is a excellent physician as well as a caring friend. A better person you will not find.
Dr. Favia and his nursing staff are fantastic. However the office staff at the Ryan Pkwy facility are unpersonable and at times rude. Telephone calls and prescription refills could take days or multiple calls to get returned or filled. That is most frustrating. It seems to have gotten worse since Advocate bought the location. When it was Alpine things were better pertaining to the office staff.
Dr Favia is a great doctor and I would recommend him to friends & family.
Dr Favia really takes his time to listen and also explain information about your health. He is very personable and easy to talk to.
Dr. Favia is truly an amazing physician that treats patients with respect and includes the patient in decision making. He has great instinct, I trust him, and I sincerely appreciate his interpersonal skills.
Dr Favia has been my doctor for 8 years. He is the best physician I have ever seen. He is a great listener and totally understands my health issues. He saved my life 8 years ago by ordering an ultrasound which was the first step in diagnosing my pancreatic cancer.
Dr. Favia is very good in his manner, respectful and answers whatever concerns I have. I am VERY pleased with the service I receive.
Front desk clerk very rude. . Made me feel like a criminal because I owed a balance.
This was a first visit with Dr. Favia. He was very understanding of my health history and wanted to continue when all of the records were available.
Great experience from the front desk, nurses and the Dr.
I was very pleased with Dr.
Dr. Favia is very thorough and goes through everything relative to my visit. He ensures that I have what I need to treat my condition, and suggests other alternatives available to me, without being pushy. This visit was foe a med check, labs and pneumonia shot.
Very happy to find. good provider so close to home. Wait time was longer than expected but worth it because the doctor was very caring and took his time with me.
Provider is excellent. Schedulers & reception are rude and condescending. It took more than four phone calls, multiple messages, and long wait (hold) times to make appt. Doctor is great, reception and schedulers are awful.
Always get the best possible care from this provider
Dr. Favia is great. I trust myself and my whole family to him to give us excellent care
Good place to go. All were pleasant.
they are always great I live out of state and take the trek dowe to see my doctors they are amazing
Dr. Favia is wonderful. He aways makes you feel comfortable and cared about. He is the best!
Dr Favia is one of the best most caring physicians I have ever seen. he takes all the time you need with him and doesn't rush through the appointment. explains things in terms you can understand.
Dr Favia is the best doctor I have ever visited, he is very thorough and caring
My Medical visits with Dr. Favia have always been informative and thorough regarding any concerns that I may have about my health. I hope to be able to continue to see Dr. Favia for my regular medical visits as well as any other health related conditions I may need help with. I would definitely refer family and friends to this physician.
Had to wait over 30 mins in waiting room then another 30 mins in exam room for doctor. Over an hour waiting for less than 5 mins with doctor. Doctor acted rushed and in a hurry.
We had a great experience during this visit. Appointment was on time and the doctor spent time to explain things to us and made us feel at ease.
My visit was pleasant, being diabetic the doctor is concerned about all of my high risk categories.
Dr. Favia is a fantastic doctor. He listens to my needs, ask the questions about my health and history that is important and valid for my age.
Have always had good experience with Dr. Favia and staff.
Dr. Facial is amazing. The only problem I have is getting someone to call me back when I eleave a message.
