Rheumatology Associates
Robert S. Katz, MD, is a Professor of Medicine and a leading expert in the field of rheumatology with experience in both research and patient care. Dr. Katz was honored to be listed on U.S. News & World Report’s Top Doctors rankings, considered to be among the top 1% of doctors in his specialty nationwide. He was also recognized in Chicago magazine’s January 2012 issue as one of 494 top doctors in metro Chicago—chosen from the more than 35,000 medical doctors in the area.
During a Congressional briefing in March 2012, Dr. Katz shared his experiences treating patients with lupus every day. “When you see a lupus patient who doesn’t look sick, it’s hard to imagine she suffers from a disease causing such fatigue and pain that she literally cannot make it to work or pick up her child from school,” Dr. Katz explained.

The doctor did not provide follow-up and staff is very unorganized. This visit was a waste of time and money.

Exceptional experience. Parking was easy. Staff is amazing. Can’t say enough about how friendly and kind they were. I was seen by the nurse, doctor and phlebotomist before I could finish my new patient paperwork. Not that I was shuffled through quickly. The doctor was so caring and I truly felt listened to. I feel very optimistic about my future experience with this doctor and practice. Rare to find these days

Dr. Katz and his entire staff are absolutely amazing! I was absolutely dumbfounded I was able to get an appointment with him so quickly. I would emphatically and extremely strongly recommend him without any caveats. They were all extremely diligent in gathering history, collecting records, etc. Not only is his practice excellent, he has a wonderful bedside humor and a charming and great sense of humor. I hope he never retires!
August 24, 2023David L.Verified patient
Appointment was on time and office staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The nurses and Dr Katz listened and educated me on what they were doing, why and the expectations. Dr. Katz is very impressive with his passion for the health of the patient and his area of expertise. I was impressed with his ongoing studies and teaching of his researchers, which we were introduced to. It’s very rare to find such a high caliber doctor that also has top-notch bedside manner.

Dr Katz took a data- oriented approach to address my concerns and was willing to start a treatment regimen right away. He directed me for x-rays, took some blood and suggested I return in 3-4 weeks to report in Rx trial and so that he can share impressions from lab and imaging results.
March 15, 2023Laura D.Verified patient
I live in Atlanta, GA. I came to Dr. Katz in Chicago because he previously diagnosed my sister in-law after doctors didn’t diagnose her correctly. After the first visit and some tests, Dr. Katz came to a diagnosis for my my son and we are continuously working on what else is wrong with him. This is even after going to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL and they couldn’t figure this out. I am e extremely happy with the service Dr. Katz has given!

What a wonderful staff and doctor.

Dr Katz took my symptoms seriously, provided and explained his medical hypothesis to me, and followed up with a wide array of testing. Dr. Katz's thoroughness impressed me.

First time visiting Dr.Katz but was referred through a family Member and well recommended. Very nice, knowledgeable and helpful just on my first visit. His staff are very friendly as well.
March 2, 2022Gladys I.Verified patient
I was extremely happy with my appointment with Dr. Small. He was attentive, knowledgeable and kind. He's a great listener, he respected my hypothesis about my injury and he included my input when coming up with the best medication strategy for me. I'm super sensitive to meds, so he honored my request to start low on the steroid and reevaluate after a week.
He was patient and not rushed on my follow up phone call today. I feel confident and lucky that I chose Dr. Small for this unusual injury.
I also had a wonderful interaction with the Anna when deciding last minute about coming to this office. Her friendliness and personable vibe made me comfortable.
The nurse who brought me in was comforting and empathetic.
Finally, I was pleasantly surprised to have such a fun conversation with Lola as she was drawing me blood.
Overall it was a great experience! No one wants to have to go to the doctor for an injury, but this experience was uplifting and set me at ease.
Thanks, Everyone.

Very friendly staff. Dr.Katz was thorough and checked in a lot to see if I had questions about what we had gone over. I was nervous about this appt but, everyone really put my mind at ease.
January 18, 2022Alexandra B.Verified patient
Dr. Katz has a lot of experience so I trusted his evaluation of the symptoms that I presented. He ordered a test just to be sure and I appreciated that he was not dismissive about my symptoms even though they may have been minor in relation to what he typically sees.

1st visit went well. My 2nd visit did not. I was supposed to have x-rays done & he didn’t do them & my labs were not explained to me. I was told no major organ failure. I was told multiple times he was triple booked & only had 2 nurses today (7/8) He should book less patients, especially when short staffed so he can actually treat them & spend more than 3 minutes in the room. Very disappointed with my 2nd visit on 7/8/21.
July 9, 2021Chrissy S.Verified patient
My incredible experience with this practice started out with Dr Katz,s personal secretary calling me to schedule an appointment. She was the kindest secretary I have ever spoken to and was ready to help me any way she could. The staff at the office was very welcoming and kind. The nurses were gentle and caring.
Dr Robert Katz was an honor to meet. He is a very humble and caring physician. He took the time to listen to everything I had to say. He examined me thoroughly and made sure I did not leave his office without addressing all of my concerns. I would recommend Dr. Katz and his team to everyone I know.

The best medical experience I’ve ever had. Everyone (front office, nurse, lab, radiology and doctor) was beyond friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve never felt so welcomed in a doctors office. Dr. Katz showed great passion to find the root cause rather than just dismissing me or throwing pills at me. I’m so thankful to have found this place and find the answers I’m looking for.
May 30, 2019Brigette T.Verified patient
Dr. Katz was such a breath of fresh air! Wonderful experience. I’ve seen multiple MD’s the past few months and Dr. Katz was hands down the most professional, helpful and comforting specialist I’ve ever been to. The entire staff was so friendly and efficient. Although I will not likely need to see Dr. Katz regularly, I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family!

The staff is so friendly! Waiting area so lovely and clean. Dr. Katz was so nice and took his time listening to what I had going on and was open to questions! Felt cared for which is sometimes hard to find in doctors. Definitely recommend anyone to go to this office!
