I would like to take this opportunity to tell you more about myself and my experience in healthcare. I am originally from Lombard, Illinois and I earned my B.S. degree in biology at the University of Illinois, Champaign/Urbana in 1998. I continued my studies at the University of Illinois in Chicago, obtaining my medical degree in 2002.
Following my graduation, I completed an internship and pursued advanced orthopedic training as part of my residency at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago. In addition, I completed another year at a subspecialty training program, or fellowship, in hand surgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
My practice is focused on diseases and disorders of the hand and upper extremity. It is my mission to provide all my patients excellent service, as well as compassionate care. I always strive to provide you the same high quality of orthopedic care that I would offer to a member of my family.
I am active in continuing education and have spoken at numerous lectures, made presentations, and have authored an orthopedic research publication.
In addition to my extensive medical commitments, I enjoy weightlifting, jogging, tennis, and playing golf.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to further improve your experience at Ortho Illinois. My goal is to provide you the best medical care available.
I am looking forward to meeting you.

Dr. Schwartz did a great job explaining the issue with my finger. He also let me know what to expect when getting the cortisone injection.
Informative, took his time to answer questions.
I didn't have to wait. Dr. was thorough and explained all of my options.
Very personable answers all your questions. Great visit.
This man is the best doctor I've ever had. He's kind, takes his time with you and never makes you feel rushed to get in all your questions before he leaves the room, like some doctors do. He's prompt with his appointments. I'm always in and out pretty fast. This last appointment was done and over within 15 minutes, and I never felt rushed at any point. His bedside manner is impeccable and I really wish all doctors were like Dr. Edric Schwartz. You can tell he has a real genuine passion for what he does. He's the absolute best there is in my opinion! Thank you so very much Dr. Schwartz Sir.
Listens to my concerns.and gives me my options.
Dr Schwartz is a remarkable dr he is kind,takes time to listern to what you have to say and he doesn’t rush you off like other drs do…and he is very gentle when he gives shots. His stalag are great too…Thanks Dr. Schwartz and staff…👍🙏🏻
I really like Dr Schwartz I feel he explained everything to me so I could understand it he answered all my questions and most importantly I believe he cares about his patients and really wants to help all and I haven't had much of that from other doctors so thank you so very much Dr Schwartz I'm putting all my faith in you
On our first visit, Dr. E. Schwartz explained all options, then left the decision to us. He was an exceptional listener who answered all questions and requests.
Hard to rate someone I didn't see. Saw Mike Weedman, he was great. Answered questions, explained what was going on.
