Welcome
Luis Cruz, PA-C
​Luis Cruz, also known by his middle name Edy, graduated from Dominican University in 2022 with a Bachelor's in Neuroscience and Biochemistry and from Rosalind Franklin University in 2024 with a Master of Physician Assistant Studies.
​
Originally from Mexico City, he has lived in the Chicago area since age five. Bilingual in English and Spanish, he became a Physician Assistant to communicate, inform, and address the specific healthcare needs of the Latino community. As the eldest of his immediate and extended family, he took on a caregiving role for his sister and cousins, which fostered his fondness for children and solidified his passion for working in pediatrics.

Luis is now seeing pediatrics patients in East Dundee and Hanover Park.
March is National Nutrition Month
This is the perfect time to connect with food and your community, exploring how it ties to culture, family, and friends.
Cooking at home is a great way to control portions, ingredients, and cooking methods. Plus, it can help you save money by using lower-cost ingredients while boosting your nutrition with more whole foods like fruits and vegetables!
Our relationship with food is shaped by factors like health, memories, traditions, seasons, access to food, and culture. Just as these factors influence what we eat, the food we choose can also impact our health. It's always a good time to build healthier habits! Certain foods may be recommended to help reduce the risk of chronic diseases or as part of a treatment plan for health conditions.
