Default Gyno in Chicago area (OB not necessary)

Hi, I am looking for a gynecologist in the Chicago area. I'm in the northwest suburbs, but I'm okay with someone in the city.

I'm childfree by choice, so someone with obstetrical qualifications isn't necessary, and in fact, I'd prefer them to not be an obstetrician.

I was diagnosed a few years ago by my GP and that's who I've been treated by since then. It's just recently I decided to see a specialist, as I'm getting to the point where I need to make some health decisions and while I love my GP, I want someone who really knows this stuff on a more in-depth basis.

Should I see an endocrinologist, too?

Thanks for the help!

Edited to Add: It's sorta important to me to see a female gynecologist. Just a personal preference!

Dont know if you have found a dr. See below, she's at Northwestern and is pretty good. I know several ladies who use her as their doc for various issues and she is imho very good. Though she's ob as well so may not be what you are looking for
