Dr. Yanovskiy operated my ruptured ankle tendon. He did a great job and I am recovering pretty quickly. He is professional, knowledgeable and concerned about my condition, monitoring my healing process. His office team is always friendly and helpful.

I was shocked to set an appointment and leave without seeing the doctor. The reason is that this practice requires all patients to sign a general liability waiver, the same kind you do when you drop your kids off at place where they run around in the dark with blunt objects. I understand signing a waiver for a specific procedure with defined risks, but not a general one that's required before I can meet the doctor! The clerical staff said that it's a waiver to acknowledge you'll follow the doctor's recommendation, but that's not what I read. I admit that this is only the second foot doctor I've gone to and am not informed if this is common practice in this field. I don't feel comfortable seeing a doctor who won't take responsibility for being a doctor, so we kept on walking...

Dr. Yanovskiy is the best podiatrist I've ever met in my life! My three-year-old son had a Flat Feet. I had consultations in a few clinics, but none of the doctors prescribed the right treatment for us. I accidentally found Illinois Foot & Ankle Clinic in Des Plaines. Dr. Yanovskiy put me right at ease with his professional yet easy-going nature. He gave us a great and thoughtful advice and prescribed an effective treatment. After wearing special orthopedic shoes, my son got rid of the problem.

Once I examined my feet and saw red streaks and small cracks. I have diabetes, therefore, I assumed that this is a diabetic foot, the most common complication. I booked an appointment at Illinois Foot & Ankle Clinic. Dr. Alex Yanovskiy is a wonderful person. He listened to all my concerns & complaints, carefully examined my feet, prescribed tests that I had to undergo and a temporary treatment while the examination was underway. We met with him after 2 weeks and he made some changes to the treat

I've got a problem of a transverse flat foot for several years. As a result, the hammer toes were caused by this pathology on my both feet. There was the early stage of the disease, and Dr. Alex Yanovskiy recommended correcting toes deformity by the conservative methods of special orthopedic insoles or comfortable shoes wearing. I also was prescribed therapy gymnastics and massage at his clinic, and It really helped me.

This doctor earns high marks. Have seen him over the years and have found that he and his office deserve these marks. In addition to his obvious knowledge of his medical specialty he indeed has a sincere interest in each patient. One quick story tells it all. My wife had a foot condition that might require surgery. This doctor recommended against this course of action. Not feasible. He had OUR interests, not his, in mind when making the suggestion. Obviously, honestly over all.

I have been going to Dr. Y for about a year now and I am grateful for his honesty ( to try other options before surgery) and giving me relief until I decide what to do. Nely, the office manager ( I think she works 24/7!) is very nice and helpful. I recommended my friend to Dr. Y and now she loves him too. Her primary Dr. says Dr. Y is an excellent dr. All I can say is that for my problem, Dr. Y is going above and beyond to help me . Thank you ??

Came in with a laser voucher I got a free consultation and he explained to me the different options for my problem in my foot. He is patient, friendly and professional in his job. I got a second appointment for the laser and I have more alternatives in my treatment.

Came into Dr. Yanovskiy clinic because I got injured during a rough game of basketball and twisted my ankle. The Doctor took an x-ray right away to find out if it was just sprained or fractured. Turns out that I had fractured my ankle and got casted right away. I was able to walk out of the office in crutches, doctor provided me with pain killers and note for my job.

After discussing my x-rays and treatment plan to help relief my pain and swelling on my foot I decided to have surgery done and was able to schedule the surgery the following week.

Dr. Yanovskiy took care about myself and my husband. He is really knolegible and supportive doctor. Compare with multiple other doctors from my experience, he spent with patient time to explaine everything related to the patient's disease and give multiple options for the treatment. I am recomending this doctor to everyone who wants to receive the excellent care for your problem.
