Northwest Community Healthcare’s (NCH) Medical Group is opening a new office location staffed by three physicians on Friday, November 1, at 1217 S. Rand Road, in Lake Zurich.

Two family practice physicians, who treat patients from pediatric through senior ages, and one internal medicine physician, who treats patients 14 years of age and older, will practice at the new NCH Medical Group office. At this new location, primary care doctors will provide residents of Chicago’s northwest suburbs with convenient access, including same-day visits, and expedited appointments to other specialist physicians in the group. Patients who need treatment after hours will have their electronic medical record history conveniently accessible to physicians at the NCH Immediate Care Center next door.

Gregory Lindsay, MD, and Winston D. Rajendram, MD, are both board-certified in family medicine. Dr. Lindsay earned his Doctor of Medicine degree in 2005 from the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria. His residency was at the LaGrange Family Medicine Residency Program. Dr. Lindsay will see patients at the Lake Zurich location and at the NCH Medical Group office at 1051 W. Rand Road, Arlington Heights. Dr. Rajendram earned his Doctor of Medicine degree in 2004 from Saba University School of Medicine, Netherlands-Antilles, Dutch West Indies. His residency was at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.

Heidi Wehlus, MD, is board-certified in internal medicine and will see patients in the Lake Zurich office and also at the NCH Medical Group office at 1450 Busch Parkway, Buffalo Grove.
