New NF Clinic in Chicago Suburbs
Big news! We have now established an neurofibromatosis (NF) clinic in the Chicago suburbs for adults and children with NF. Amita Health/Alexian Brothers is looking to build a comprehensive NF Clinic directed by Nikolas Mata-Machado, MD.
Dr. Mata-Machado is an adult and pediatric neurologist who speaks fluent Spanish and Portuguese (as well as English…obviously). Having served a neurological fellowship under Dr. James Tonsgard at the University of Chicago, he has a deep interest in neurofibromatosis. In fact, you can find Dr. Mata-Machado on the cover of our third edition of Understanding Neurofibromatosis.
He will be seeing patients in Hoffman Estates and Wheaton.
Appointments can be made by calling 847-490-4222 or online here.
Note: Dr. Mata-Machado is no longer with Loyola. Find out more about finding an NF doctor here.
Nice to know there’s such a clinic like this nearby.
I saw Dr. Mata-Machado at Loyola before he left. I have illinicare insurance, will he be accepting it at his new location?
Yes, he does still take Illicare.
