A thorough, caring, and highly-knowledgeable physician who takes the time to know and understand each patient's concerns/issues. Provides clear answers and offers suggestions to his patients. Doesn't tell his patients what they want to hear but more importantly what the patient should hear about their health.

Outstanding Doctor great attention to detail he reads all the lab results and if he finds a problem his staff will contact you right away to get you into see him to resolve the issue. Dr. Cataldo found a problem on a routine physical exam lab test, and he may have saved my life

He is a doctor that listens to you and looks you in the eye. He is not staring at his computer or looking at a file he is listening and looking at the patient. You're able to get an appointment with the appropriate amount of time depending upon symptoms. He's available through the do page medical website. Doctor Cataldo's staff are equally kind and considerate. I recommended him to all of my family and friends. If he doesn't have the answer he sends you to a doctor and that shares similar attitudes about medicine. They are trying to truly help you and get to the bottom of sometimes very mysterious illnesses.

Dr. Cataldo has been my internist for almost 20 years. He is patient, easy to talk with and always has time to listen to my questions. These qualities along with his outstanding knowledge allow him to provide the best preventative care program for me. I'm so happy to still be running well into my 50's!

I have had several of my primary physicians leave the area in the last 10 years. All were excellent physicians. So I was nervous about having to find a new physician. I have been extremely happy with Dr Cataldo. He is knowledgeable, professional, compassionate and definitely a patient advocate.

I have been going to Dr. Cataldo for over 15 years. In this time, I have found him to be very knowledgeable and able to explain everything he does, and everything I ask him.
He is easy to talk with, and he always makes time for me.
He is thorough in all aspects of the visit including what I should do before the next time I see him.
I am fortunate to have him for my internist.

Dr. Cataldo is a true friend, Dr. and human being, he is professional, well liked at Du Page Medical group, and Thank you for all your years of service!

Dr. Cataldo believes in the patient/doctor relationship as a team approach and treats each patient as an individual rather than practicing medicine as a "cookie cutter." He understands what works for one doesn't always work for another and is willing to listen to what his patients have to say in order to formulate the best plan for treatment. Dr. Cataldo is a doctor who cares deeply about his patients by listening, remembering facts and providing positive support to ones health care needs. A++

I have been going to Dr Cataldo for many many years (so long I forgot how many). He is THE BEST Dr. I have ever had bar none! Here are my main reasons for this review. He is very detail oriented. He doesn't miss a point during any exam, and usually finds things that should be taken care of ahead of a serious issue evolving. 2) He is a caring person. He truly looks out for your best interests. He ALSO will not prescribe something unnecessary. I could go on and on.....I HIGHLY recommend him.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Cataldo for several years. He is extremely thorough when reviewing lab results and discussing any issues I might have. He is punctual but still takes the time needed for each patient. He is the best!!!

Dr. Cataldo has been my physician for nearly 15 years. His knowledge, skill, and empathy in relating to the challenges of his patients is superior to any I have been in contact with. His approach is methodical, precise, credible, all while being a great listener. His compassionate approach, while making sure the patient understands the consequences of not making lifestyle changes that negatively impact their overall wellness is greatly appreciated. His impact has been life-changing & LIFESAVING.

I highly recommend Dr. Cataldo. He is not only a listener but he hears you. He is patient, warm, caring, compassionate and non-judgmental. Recently I had a surgical procedure at a different hospital and by a doctor not associated with his clinic. As the information was coming into Dr. Cataldo he called to see how I was doing, did I have any questions and if there was anything he could do. I was extremely impressed by his compassion to take the time out of his busy day to check on me.
