Meet Dr. Peter Makar, Internal Medicine physician at Duly's Hinsdale clinic. 👋

When Dr. Makar reflects on what led him to Internal Medicine, it starts with his father. Long before he fully understood what the specialty meant, he saw the impact his father made in patients’ lives. Years later, that early inspiration deepened during a medical brigade in rural Panama, where Dr. Makar witnessed healthcare disparities firsthand and worked alongside local physicians to bring health education and prevention to small villages. That experience solidified his calling.

Today, Dr. Makar brings that same sense of purpose to every patient interaction. He believes that success as a doctor begins with listening - truly listening - and building strong relationships rooted in trust. Whether helping someone better understand their medications or navigating a complex health concern, he takes the time to ensure patients feel informed and confident in their care plan. “A career in Internal Medicine is only as fulfilling as the relationships that are cultivated over time,” he shares. 💙

If you’re looking for a physician who prioritizes connection, clarity, and personalized care, Dr. Makar is welcoming new patients. Visit the link in the comments to schedule an appointment and experience care designed to help you feel empowered every step of the way.

Meet Dr. David McElligott, Duly Pulmonary Medicine physician in Naperville. IL. 👋

From 5th grade to today, Dr. McElligott has known exactly what he wanted to do: help people breathe easier. Inspired by his father’s career in Pulmonary Medicine, he now brings that same dedication to every patient he sees at Duly.

“I would say listening and critical thinking are most important,” he shares. “We have a limited amount of time with our patients, so it’s important that we pay attention to what they’re saying and use that information — along with our exam and testing — to craft a treatment plan that truly helps them.”

One of his most meaningful cases involved helping a young woman recover from acute respiratory failure and seeing her return to the office fully recovered - a moment that reinforced why he can’t imagine doing anything else. He describes his work as rewarding, challenging, exciting, and fulfilling. 💙

If you’ve been putting off care for asthma, COPD, chronic cough, or other lung concerns, this is your sign to visit the link in the comments to schedule an appointment with Dr. McElligott today.
