I treat patients as I’d want my loved ones treated – with honesty, transparency and respect for their choices. I'm driven daily by the belief that saving one life is like saving the whole world.
Dr. Hanif’s journey into medicine began early in life, deeply inspired by his father’s battle with heart disease and untimely passing due to a heart attack. That personal loss ignited a passion for cardiology and a lifelong mission to help others live longer, healthier lives.
“Saving a life is the most gratifying feeling in the world, and it always hits close to home,” he said. Dr. Hanif is proud to serve at OSF HealthCare, a faith-based institution that shares his commitment to compassion and helping those in need.
Outside of work, Dr. Hanif enjoys playing tennis and staying active in the community. He and his wife have been married for over 25 years and are proud parents of two college-aged sons and a daughter in eighth grade.
