Patient for 15 Years – Highly Recommend for Holistic Health and Lifestyle Guidance I've been seeing Dr. Kacmar for over 15 years, and the experience has been consistently exceptional. What sets Dr. Kacmar apart is his holistic apShow moreproach to healthcare. Rather than simply prescribing medication, Dr. takes the time to understand your lifestyle and guide you toward sustainable, healthy changes. In many ways, Dr. Kacmar acts as a life coach—offering thoughtful counseling that goes beyond traditional medical advice. Dr. Kacmar's background in sports medicine has been particularly valuable, helping me manage physical health proactively and recover from injuries effectively. Whether it's nutrition, exercise, stress management, or preventive care, his guidance supports the whole person. If you're looking for a doctor who prioritizes long-term wellness over quick fixes, this is someone I wholeheartedly recommend and trust Dr. Kacmar. Sometimes, I wonder why most of the wait times are long and end-up telling myself - it is probably worth it :-)
This practice was recommended by a friend. I saw a stand-in for our typical family doctor who was booked out and the alternate Dr diagnosed it as a sinus infection but I knew that could not be right as I was so fatigued. I called Show morethis practice and they squeezed me in same day (!) to see their wonderful nurse practitioner. She took a chest X-ray and immediately diagnosed it as double pneumonia. Wow, what a great team - so responsive! And nice

I have been with Dr. Kacmar for some years now. I have always been pleased with the friendliness of the staff and the personal care I was offered. It was super easy to set up for appointment, and my results always came within 24-48 hours!

He is a great doctor. He has my knee feeling great already. He listens to your concerns and fixes them.
Dr. K is the best. I’ve been a patient of his for quite sometime. My daughter is also a patient of his. I’m so proud I have his as my physician.
Great patient, doctor and staff rapport. Very happy to be a patient:)
I’ve been going to Dr Kacmar for the past 20 years. I actually moved out of the area but still continue to go back to him. He’s professional and very personable. I highly recommend this family practice.
Dr Kacmar saved my life by getting me out of the Naperville Hospital who had me on a ventilator unnecessarily and moved me to Marionjoy for 2 weeks of rehab then moved me home for my wife to complete my recovery. Without Dr Kacmars intervention , I would b dead.
I always feel taken care of by Dr. Kacmar and the staff. Conversations are educational and comforting. I leave feeling better about the reason I was there in the first place because Dr. Kacmar treats you like family and truly wants to help.
Dr. Kamara is my PCP. He is an outstanding Doctor. He is very thorough and very giving of his time to his patients. Today was just a routine follow up visit. He checked me thoroughly and also reviewed blood test results that were conducted by my cardiologist. He asked about any concerns I might have. We scheduled my next follow up and he told me to contact him sooner if any other issues or concerns arose. I would highly recommend Dr. Kamara to anyone.!
Thank you Dr.Kacmar and everyone on his team for quick diagnosis and Tx plan as well as immediate Tx at the facility along with immediately sent scripts of the medication I would need to breathe better and get better quickly. I appreciate your care!
Dr. Kacmar has been our family Dr for a long time. His calm demeanor is an asset and helps when medical issues arise. Highly recommend him to anyone.
Dr Kacmar and his staff are great!!
One of the finest doctors in the world! Very helpful and professional staff.
