Patient Reviews
Feb 03, 2023
We met with Dr. Skjong as a walk in to the Illinois Bone and Joint Urgent care in Glenview. He was on call. My back has been problematic for years, and even though this is not his specialty, he spent more time answering questions, discussing treatment and other options than all the spine specialist I have visited over the years. A patient, knowledgeable and old school doctor in terms of willingness to spend time. Thank you
