Dr. James J. Rydel, MD

Top3Doctors.com selected Dr. James Rydel as a top nephrologist in Oak Lawn because of his strong training, dual board certification, and steady leadership. He earned his medical degree at Rush Medical College and trained in internal medicine at Rush University Medical Center. The American Board of Internal Medicine has certified him in both internal medicine and nephrology. Castle Connolly also named him a Regional Top Doctor in 2014. That kind of background gives kidney patients real peace of mind.

What sets Dr. Rydel apart is the full path of care his practice offers. He leads JR Nephrology & Associates, a group of four nephrologists just southwest of Chicago. The team treats chronic kidney disease and refers patients to transplant centers when the time is right. When dialysis is needed, they manage it both in a center and at home, including peritoneal dialysis. Dr. Rydel also cares for patients at Advocate Christ Medical Center. For these reasons, Top3Doctors.com proudly names Dr. James Rydel among the top three nephrologists in Oak Lawn.
