Dr. Gerald Andrew Cahill, MD

Dr. Cahill is an excellent surgeon.. and he knows it. Almost too much I think. If you're looking for a compassionate, understanding, talkative, "answer all your questions" type doctor.. Look the other way and go elsewhere. In total between all of my visits ( and there was a lot ) I probably only saw him 3 times and spoke with him a total of 15 minutes, if that. And my encounters with him were... hostile. He's kinda rude. But he'll tell you exactly how it is. So I don't know if it's really "rude" or just.. straight to the point. You ever see Dr Now on 600-lb life? Those kind of vibes lol. He didn't even check up on me after my surgery and I was there for two nights. That was probably my biggest beef with him through the entire process. HOWEVER, I've lost 100lbs. So.. I guess he did his job right. He's just cocky. Anyway, I'd recommend him LOL.

I dont know of this doctor's surgical expertise, but this is the rudest person that I have every encountered. True lack of concern and care for patients. Disrespectful in tone attitude and overall condescending. There are several amazing bariatric surgeons in the Chicagoland area. I would recommend any one else if care, respect and compassion are important.

My total experience was wonderful

Dr. Cahill is wonderful, great bedside manner, very easy to talk to. Excellent surgeon

This is a fine caring surgeon who will do his best to make sure you are receiving the best surgery and the best care possible. He is very conscientious and hardworking. I recommend him to anyone looking to undergo Bariatric surgery. You will be glad you are seeing the very best doctors available!

I would not go to any other Surgeon !! He is excellent!!

Dr Cahill did my gastric bypass almost 7 years ago. I can never thank him enough. The before and after care I received from Dr Cahill and Tony went above and beyond they both gave me their cell phone numbers. Dr Cahill is the definition of what a Dr should be. I had some issues not related to surgery and they were with me every step of the way

Great surgeon,but a ghost afterwards, I've never seen him since the surgery. Always his nurse at follow up visits.

Dr. Cahill and his staff are very professional and thorough. I couldn't have asked for better treatment. The also have after care which is critical to being successful. I won't deny it, the surgery and recovery is tough but I'm down 85 # and need to loose more. I know I couldn't do it by myself. Thank you so much.

My experience was wonderful! I would highly recommend Dr. Cahill.

DO NOT SEE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is fine as long as you have no complications. Otherwise he will kick you to the curb. If you have complications seek other Dr immediately.

Be very careful in choosing Dr. Cahill. Be even more careful of his nurse, Tony. Despite our initial request for a lap-band, Tony, was very persuasive and successful in talking us into a full gastric bypass telling us a lap-band would not be sufficient enough to lose the desired weight. The results have been disastrous. Post-op medications issues were glossed over with a simple explanation that only anti-inflammatories would not be allowed. No mention of having to have all medications crushed, liquid or capsules that could be opened and no mention that extended release medications are prohibited. GERD is a constant battle.The gastric by-pass has caused way more complications than ever anticipated. The negatives far outweigh the positives. Would never do it again. Unfortunately, it is here to stay.
