Russian-speaking doctors in Chicago — 5 listings

When you choose a doctor in the US, ask three things before the first visit: are they licensed in this state (look up the medical board), do they take your insurance or tell you a self-pay price in writing, and who covers nights and weekends. Red flags are a cell number with no address, a promise to “work around” insurance coding, and a clinic that will not name the physician. A Russian-speaking internist or pediatrician matters when a parent must describe pain, medications and history without a child translating. On SlavList, Verified means we checked a phone and an address; it is not a clinical endorsement. Ask for the NPI and confirm it yourself. Write down the license number, the price or copay, and the cancellation rule, then compare two cards in the same city. Verified on SlavList is a phone and an address, not an outcome; Featured is paid and labeled Promoted. Leave a review only after the confirmation email — one per inbox per listing, no discount for the text.
