Risha M. Foster MD

Urologist

  • “I couldn’t be more pleased with the staff and Dr. Foster. They make you feel so welcome, concerned, and as hokey as it sounds like family. Dr. Foster’s gentle touch and bedside manner are superior to any other doctor I have ever known. I also feel the same as it relates to her nurses. I travel from Orland Park to LaGrange because of the office’s expertise and gentle hand showed to my 90 years young fragile mother.” -Sandra

     

    "I have a daughter with special needs. Dr. Foster made sure to take the time and explain everything necessary for her to understand. She also gave me comfort by reassuring me that my daughter is in good hands and will make sure my daughter feels safe."
