Asghar Rizvi, MD

"Dr. Rizvi has been incredibly helpful via his diagnosis of back + facet issues and his treatment. When I first started seeing him, my pain was incapacitating. After several rounds of treatment, I'm now back to nearly 100% pain-free. Highly recommend."

"Dr. Rizvi provided me an epidural back in late March to alleviate lower back discomfort that I have been experiencing for some time. Months later, my back is feeling great and I am able to resume normal activity and hopefully strengthen the surrounding areas Dr. Rizvi does have a private clinic, which I would highly recommend to avoid the facility fees at hospitals. My epidural cost more than $2,000 and it should have been a procedure that was less than $500. Though I should have asked, I wish the team would provide this information upfront to avoid overpaying for procedures. Despite numerous conversations to the hospital billing department and clinic, it was virtually impossible to get an itemized breakdown of the charges until weeks after the procedure."

"After several rounds of steroid injections with Dr. Rizvi, my pain has decreased significantly which has improved my overall functioning and quality of life. Dr. Rizvi is a clear communicator, patient and attentive, and gives me adequate time to ask questions. I appreciate how he has addressed my fears/concerns in an objective and helpful manner, and he lets me have a voice in my healthcare decisions. The front desk staff and his medical assistant are very nice and professional as well. I highly recommend Dr. Rizvi for pain management and interventions."

"I see Dr Rizvi at Weiss hospital. He's the only reason I go there. My wife is a nurse at northwestern so I have insurance to go there no problem. Dr Rizvi is the best Dr I have seen for my major back problems at either hospital. Good Drs are hard to find unfortunately. He's definitely 1 of them"

"Prior to seeing Dr. Rizvi, I'd been dealing severe, chronic pain for some years. Having seen numerous providers over the years, to little effect, I didn't hold out much hope this treatment would be any more effective than the others had been. However, I've been able to resume leading an active life, something the pain had been preventing me from doing. I highly recommend Dr. Rizvi, not only was the treatment he recommended effective, but he takes the time to listen to you and answer your questions, a rare trait in physicians."

"I NEVER experienced sciatica before. I was with a different practitioner prior to meeting Dr. Rizvi and was jerked around. When I first met with Dr. Rizvi, he 'spoke with conviction', and emphatically. He explained in great detail his plan of attack, and really made me feel as if I were in GREAT hands. After MY experience with Dr. Rizvi, I can now say that Dr. Rizvi is a proven operator in the field of medicine; operating with meticulous attention, integrity, and care."

"Dr. Rizvi gave me my life back. I was in so much pain in my lower back from a fall and with the injections he gave me and the burning of some nerves, I'm back to my normal self pain free. He's the best, so kind and he knows what he's doing!!!!"

"Dr.Rizvi is truly outstanding, he is caring, extremely professional and very knowledgeable. Thr treatment plan he came up with got my pain issue 100% resolved, I am grateful to him and his team for doing such a great job- I have my life back!!!"
