Patient Reviews
Jan 19, 2026
I was seeing Dr. Rao for several years until she left Rush Medical Center. She was GREAT! Very patient and understanding. She helped me understand my medical condition and how to cope. I really wish she was still there. Now I have to start all over with another neurologist. Bummer! Where ever she went, I'm sure she is going to be a great addition.
