I knew Dr DeStefano from residency at U of Ill 2 west. He was very caring and sensitive then and I would believe he would have continued to feel that way towards every mother he delivered. I read that he was retiring soon and I would wish him happiness in all he does. It is touching that one of his children has written to support him. As health professionals, you work 24/7/365, you miss out on family time to care for others. HAPPY RETIREMENT MICHAEL.

My dad is a great doctor and if anyone says he isn't he was probably just having a bad day. He is perfect with his patients and if they respect him he respects you. I cannot tell you how many times that my father Dr. Michael De Stefano has woken up in the middle of the night ready to deliver a child. He has pictures of all of his deliveries in the hallway office he works at and loves that his patients are always happy when he relievers their child. My faster has been in this practice for over 40 years. I also love how at the dinner table he says how great a day he had because his patients where so fantastic.

It all depends on what you're looking for in a doctor. I am a husband whose wife had a life-threatening emergency requiring immediate intervention. I can't really speak to how emotionally sensitive Dr. DeStefano might be or whether he seems "caring" enough. In our situation, we needed a veteran with the knowledge and experience to save my wife and baby. I am glad Dr. DeStefano was our doctor. I trusted him with 2 lives last week and he came through. He is a hero to our family. In follow-up, he has been kind and honest. He demonstrates genuine concern for my family. That is all great, but none of it would matter if he had not been masterful when lives were at stake. I do not know Dr. Destefano personally, and had never met him before my wife was going into surgery. I understand he is retiring soon, and wish him the best, though I think this is a shame. He was a great doctor for us.

I am a patient of dr destafano and just read the comment above that was so negative, I wanted to respond by saying I couldn't disagree more! Dr. Destafano is very kind and always very respectful! And would recommend him to anybody!

Dr Destefano is a VERY uncaring doctor who has no idea how to talk to his patients. I was treated with absolutely no respect. I ended up leaving the appointment during the middle of it crying because of how I was treated by him. I had already paid my co-pay but asked for it to be returned. I had no problem getting it back. His staff on the other hand seemed very nice and caring which is a shame they have to work for such an unkind man. I feel Dr Destefano does nothing for this practice other than give it a negative name. Please be aware before making an appointment with Dr Distefano.
