About Dr. Palmer
Dr. Palmer graduated from the University of Michigan and Rush Medical College. He trained at Presbyterian St. Luke's Hospital in Chicago, which is now Rush University Medical Center, and served as chief resident there. He practiced private internal medicine at Rush for twenty-one years before moving to personalized medical care in 2010.
He has cared for Chicago patients since 1989. Dr. Palmer keeps the practice small so members get time, continuity and personal attention. Annual evaluations last a full hour, and standard appointments last thirty minutes.
If a member is hospitalized, he acts as attending physician and advocate instead of handing care to a hospitalist. He arranges priority referrals to specialists by phoning a colleague himself, and records go ahead of the patient.
