I had to reply to this, as it hits a personal note. I was diagnosed in 2005 with CML, and was referred to Dr. Tallman at Northwestern in Chicago. Saying he cares for patients as if they were a family member couldnt be closer to the truth. I have never felt as cared for, both emotionally and physically, as I did with Dr. Tallman. I was lucky enough to be under his care for 5 years, and truly believe he is the BEST at what he does. He is missed in Chicago!!

I was diagnosed with CML in Blast Crisis in 2008 and was referred to Dr. Tallman as I needed an unrelated donor stem cell transplant. He was outstanding. During the scariest time of my life, he provided the care and expertise that I needed. He made sure to take the time to answer all my questions, to care for my condition and to make sure I knew what was going on. I was so lucky to have him as my doctor and believe I'm alive today because of Dr. Tallman. Not a day goes by that I don't miss him in Chicago but I know he is helping so many others.
