I was introduced to this hidden Gem by my injury lawyer following a bad car accident in March. I am really grateful for the patience and professionalism here. the PT w/ Bianca 5 stars, Rochelle was always accommodating and patient. last but not least Constance was always attentive with my E-Stem and message bed. Thank you again will recommend to family and friends read more

Phenomenal staff, recommend very!! Place is very clean, they're very attentive with the care of there patients read more

I feel better with their help but they move very quickly and if you don't speak up for yourself they will treat you just like a number. Next! read more

I can't believe I never wrote a review for my experience here a few years back! After having twins ten weeks early I found myself having trouble with my knees and then my back. I couldn't bend to use the tub with them and decided I needed to see someone. Working as a defense attorney, I was reluctant to try a chiropractor, but Dr Igor made a believer out of me. The treatments took some time, but they worked and I have had zero problems since! And the added spinal alignment at the end of sessions was fantastic, especially as the kids grew and I was toting two kids in carriers and bags!! I would definitely recommend it here! read more

I been going here for 2 weeks since my accident an there great the staff it awesome I got readjusted today an I feel like a new person I highly recommend coming here read more

I went to the Advanced Medicine Centers to have a colonic (colon hydrotheraphy) done. It was a horrible experience! When I called to inquire about the cost and process, I was told that I could not make an appointment till I paid 25.00 down. So, I went in, put the 25.00 down and made the appointment. I went back the following week. Before I was seen, I was told to pay the remaining 70.00 balance. So, like a good customer, I paid. The person who performed the procedure took me to the back. First, let me start by saying that the first visit included a 15 minute consultation. This did not happen. So, the actual procedure was to take 35 minutes...I could only take it for 13 minutes due to be uncomfortable from the pressure. I was then told that this is normal for first-timers (then why would you charge a first timer the same price as some one who got the full benefit of a 35 minute session). When it was done, the doctor left, told me to get dress and see the receptionist at the front desk (where she left a swallow of aloe vera juice for my pleasure). I was to make another appointment. When I got dressed, the doctor was no where in sight to offer any consultation. I left the aloe vera juice at the desk and jetted out of there. It was an uncomfortable and cold experience. I don't feel light and invigorated like she said I would. It has to get better than this! I DEFINITELY would not recommend this place for a colonic. You definitely want someone with a better bed side manner. read more

Once again I will repost this message due to the lack of integrity of this facility. I will inform you that it was taken down due to being unable to get a copy of medical history at this facility so basically it was held ransom until it was brought down but due to their LACK OF HONOR and INTEGRITY here is what I posted in Early February 2014: I Had to put 1 star to post this. THIS PLACE DESERVES ZERO(0) STARS, it does not deserve anything. PLEASE STAY AWAY your condition that you might be suffering from will get WORSE and cause you to have MORE ISSUES than what you walked in with. The "assistants" will start to work on you and not know in detail how to treat you and give you the right therapy. Also, "be very patient for the call back from their Dr. Russo" this guy will never call you back. If you try to get a copy of your medical records, forget about it. You will get the biggest run around of your life. The visits here will cause you to see another doctor that is a real EXPERT in this field to unsrew what they have done to you. You will lose your patience with their non caring staff to help you( they only care about more appointments and collecting money). DO NOT GO HERE STAY AWAY. Please go somewhere else where they will really treat your conditions and not make them worse and get new issues started. read more

This place is worse than going to buy a used car on cicero avenue. They try to tell you that need multiple visits for 'corrective procedures' to overbill your insurance company. There is zero interest in your well being as a patient and I would give this place negative stars if i could. Do yourself a favor and research naprapaths in the area that listen to your needs and try to help you heal. If you want to battle with being overcharged this is the place for you. read more

Full disclosure, I know of Dr. Russo and Advanced Physical Medicine through my job. I had never been to a chiropractor before and I was nervous but in so much pain I knew I needed help. I started going after my sciatic nerve pain was so bad, I could hardly even walk. I have two chronic herniated disks as well and have tried pain medication, acupuncture, physical therapy, massage, oils, and hot/cold treatments at home. It's hard since I'm young (31), there are things that I just can't do...jog...pick up my dog...lay flat on my back, wear anything but flat shoes (I used to love my heals!), all things that I took for granted when I was younger. I've been seeing Dr. Russo for two weeks now and I feel better now than I have in years. The appointments always run on time, the support staff are all so incredibly sweet and always make sure you're comfortable. I couldn't thank them enough - you don't realize how bad you feel until you feel better - it's all about perspective and APM has provided me with a new perspective on life! read more

I am blessed with pretty good health, never broken a bone, never hospitalized overnight, have only been bedridden (chicken pox in 8th grade) once and don't get the flu (and don't get me started on the flu shot). When I get an ache or a pain, I go to the doctor ... but last week, after having made "that" sudden move resulting in that upper back/neck pain and stiffness that persisted for three (3) weeks. Two sessions later, (First Alex and then Dr. Russo) my pain was gone and my appreciation for Chiropractors went up exponentially. I was thoroughly satisfied and impressed both with their assistance, but with the overall professionalism of the staff. read more

They billed my insurance for the drainage of an abscess 3 times when they never performed the procedure - I had a simple wedge resection and removal which is a procedure that costs 3 times less to perform and bill - they billed for a more expensive procedure instead of billing for the correct service performed. It cost my insurance more money and it cost me more money out of pocket. You should check your bills carefully if you go here. They also had my previous review removed. Fraudulent billing practices is not something you want in a provider. read more

Great service. They tend to their clients like family. They are always smiling. It's great energy. By far I would recommend.

Lucky me! After suffering sciatic pain, my friend referred me to Dr. Russo. I underwent treatment for about four months and rarely have pain anymore. The office staff is professional and accommodating, they have made emergency appointments on more than one occasion. Dr. Mary Ann Bender is the podiatrist on staff at APM, she is wonderful! They also have massage therapy and personal training, yoga and accupunture. Go to APM, you'll feel better!! read more

I had excruciating lower back pain about 3 weeks ago, unable to tie my shoes or even put on my clothes. I decided enough was enough, I have to go see a chiropractor, Advanced Physical Medicine was recommended to me from a past patient and I have to be honest after my first session I left quite sore. However later that evening I slept better than I have in a while and after the 3rd session I would say the pain was down to a minor discomfort, a tremendous improvement, I can now do things on my own. I continue my therapy striving for a pain-free status. The staff are professional, attentive and kind. They treat you with great care and listen to your concerns. I made the right choice. read more

I am new to Oak Park and was referred to APM almost a year ago just for general pain in my neck and shoulders. They got me on a routine of weekly massages Janita was great in working out all the knots and tension. Dr. Russo adjusted me regularly and life was great and I think it had a positive affect on my workouts. Fast forward to the Holidays lots of traveling and had not been for a couple months. Went to CA in January and when I cam back I woke up on a Friday morning with the worst neck pain ever. Immediately called to get an appointment Kaisia told me that Dr. Russo did not usually work on Fridays but he would come in and see me that afternoon. By the time I got there I was in tears from muscle spams in my neck. Dr. Russo and his team saved my life. They were sympathetic and knowledgable. They gave me like 4 different treatments each visit and each day I left feeling better then the day before. Dr. Russo is the best and I am so happy that I was already in his care when I strained my neck because I felt comfortable that he would fix me a Praise God he did! read more

My husband and I received Chiropractic Care and Physical Therapy services after we were both involved in a rear end car collision in August of 2018. The office staff was polite and professional. Dr. Russo and the physical therapist made it easy to recover and get back to our normal activities. I would recommend this office to any one who needs care following and accident or injury. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor read more

I have been a patient here for about 3 weeks. I love it, they provide a comfortable environment. From the moment you walk in the door you are usually greeted by Kasia or Aneta with a warm smile and a cheerful hello; or with Kasia a funny comment, once she gets to know you. The Doctors Russo and Alex are very personable and comforting. Throughout the whole appointment they are taking to you asking you how you are doing and how you are feeling. They are very knowledgeable and friendly. Once you check in you are escorted to the rooms by Jasmine and Alejandra. They assist the Doctors and perform some of the procedures also. Last but not least there's the Masseuse Amanda if you have any knots or aches and pains she will work them out. Don't let her small stature fool you she can really get down to those deep problems. So if you are in need of rehab or a chiropractor, I highly recommend Advanced Physical Medicine located at 6931 w North Ave in Oak Park. Oh tell them I sent you and ask them for a coupon to the Onion Roll next door. They have the leanest Corn beef and Pastrami among other sandwiches and side. Ciao for now read more

APM is as good as it gets! I went here on the recommendation of a friend, and I am so glad I did. The staff was very professional and knowledgeable, making the entire experience pleasant and comfortable. Every question I had was answered before I even had to ask! I would recommend this office to anyone, not those who are just in pain, but to also to those looking for overall better ways of living. read more

This office came recommended to me through a current patient that had been involved in a MVA as myself. Anyways I've never been to a chiropractor so was a little nervous. First day there I started treatment which was good. A medical assistant set me to do electroshock (tens unit) therapy which was fine. Was in and out about 30 mins I would say. As someone who work in the medical profession, bedside manner I consider to be very important. The staff was friendly and nice. For the next few visits I went in and the only human interaction I had was checking in with receptionist and being escorted to room for treatment. My treatment consisted of going in doing tens unit, traction table, and getting adjusted by the chiropractor in less than one minute and boom I was out. Some may say good thats fast but I was concerned because I wasn't getting better, there was no physician to ask me if I was doing well. When I was finally set up to see actual therapist I showed up to my appt to be told that he was not in. They could have called me. I come from downtown Chicago on the bus and train to get there and they did not have the courtesy to call me and tell me!! I was very disappointed so I started treatment elsewhere and when I asked for my doctors visit note (I saw their pain specialist ONCE) they would not release my record of treatment. They definitely have me the runaround! Then the office manager called me saying she could not give it to me or if I wanted to obtain it, it would be $50. For ONE record of one actual doctors visit. Ridiculous. I recommend going elsewhere. read more

Being a hair stylist I am constantly having foot pain and back pain. Dr Bender always has given me the best care and relief! I'll continue to seek her advise and recommend her! read more

I have always been healthy and athletic. When I began experiencing excruciating nerve pain and atrophy in my left thigh and I began walking with a limp, I was referred for an invasive spinal treatment by my PCP which I rejected. As a nurse, I know invasive treatment is not always the best course. I went to Dr. Russo who literally worked a miracle. Somehow the nerve was entrapped and through a series of chiropractic treatments and traction, Dr. Russo released the nerve. The pain disappeared. I continued treatment until the weakness subsided. My leg is normal and I no longer walk with a limp. Thank you to Dr. Russo and his staff. read more

I started to come here for elbow pain. Immediately i was greeted by Kasia at the front desk. She had a smile on her face, patient, explained how there process works, polite and immediately gave me a sense of relief that i was going to be taken care of. My first time seeing Dr. Russo was amazing. He took his time listening to my every concern and issue. I didn't feel rushed at all. He diagnosed me with tendonitis in my elbow. He immediately started treatment. I was greeted by John (another amazing young man) who took me in the other room and started electrical stimulation on my arm and ultrasonic therapy. I then seen Dr. Russo again where he started the gus sha treatment. I never heard of such treatment but i must say he knows what he is doing. After 1 month of treatment i am about 85% healed. Not only that they offer acupuncture, adjustments, physical therapy and massages with there phenomenal masseuse Annette. I will never go to another masseuse again! She knows her stuff and how to get rid of the back pain i was suffering from. Not only that 1 massage on my forearm where i am having pain and i feel i am now 95% recovered. Look no further this place and there staff are absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work guys. Never met an entire staff that goes above and beyond to get you healed and back to your daily routines. read more

If you're looking for a good adjustment, then this is the place, parking available, the first impression of the staff very welcoming, specially Milexy very helpfull, the office is super cleaned and I didn't have to wait long to see the Dr not only did he do such an amazing adjustment but he took his time to explain in details what was the problem & how he was going to alleviate my ongoing pain, I absolutely recommend this place. read more

I have been receiving treatment from Advanced Physical Medicine for over two months and am typically scarce with my reviews on Yelp. By now, I have had a chance to meet most of the staff and to receive multiple services to alleviate the chronic permeating pain I was suffering from due to an accident. This clinic offers electric stimulation therapy, cupping, rehabilitative yoga, chiropractic treatment, a staff podiatrist and the best deep tissue massage you will ever get (thanks Annetta!)!!!! The office staff work hard to accommodate your appointment requests and to keep you from waiting around too long for your services. I appreciate how attentive Kasia is to make sure your front office needs are met. The ladies who administer the services in the treatment rooms have amazing bedside treatment, as they listen to you, attend to your questions and concerns, and even offer engaging and entertaining conversations. Dr. Russo and Dr. Alex truly complement one another as they each have their own styles but are highly competent! Thanks to this staff for keeping such a clean and pleasant office AND for providing services that produce results!!! C. read more

If you are looking for a great chiropractor, this is it! Dr. Russo will fix any aches or pains you have. The staff is friendly and professional. If you need a massage therapist schedule an appointment here. You won't regret it. Love this place and won't change it for anything in the world. read more

The staff here in my opinion is excellent, never had any bad issues, doctors and staff are great, I have recommended to friends and associates and I've been thanked on all occasions, thanks a.p.m read more

I had a mixed experience. At first it appeared they were only interested in funneling me to an attorney and were not interested in my true well being.  If a third party is paying the bills prepare to be going here for a long time.  They were questionable and my Healthcare Provider took them out of their network.  Once you are done treating if you want anything from them good luck.  Prepare to call them countless times.  If they could be rated on giving the runaround, 5 stars.  The care was not all that great.  It seemed to take a while to see any actual results and the appointments can be spaced out so that it appears the treatment is prolonged. The "office" is disorganized and they overbook so you will be left waiting several times within your same visit.  Its frustrating because this could be a top notch facility and some of the employees there are outstanding. read more

i went to my first consultation with Dr.Russo and he is fantastic talking to!!! He takes the time to listen about your concerns n goals n makes goals with you to achieve with your body and health!!! I had a great convo with him and wish I found him sooner...He knew of my condition with my knees very well and gave me a treatment plan without mentioning surgery!!omg im so relieved and will be coming here all the time...secondly i wanna mention my favorite girl Eliza...She is the sweetest one and does great massages!! I met her at my school and she was so good with my 5 year old as well, and she really cares about the people that come to advanced , and is really there to help people...I wish other healthcare workers take the time like this staff does to treat people in a more "holistic" way rather than dose them up with medications and send them off! Highly recommend this place!!!!! Can't wait for my session Wednesday! read more

I had very positive and pleasant experience at Advanced Physical Medicine.Dr.Igor Russo was very professional and knowledgeable,he was able to diagnose me after a month of bad experience with other doctor.Dr.Russo helped me with my shoulder problem and thanks to him I am able to enjoy my active lifestyle.The staff was very friendly and professional.I give them the highest recommendations! read more

Don't waste your time going anywhere else but here! I wasted close to 4 weeks of sessions with a therapist who insisted I come medicated on codiene to her sessions. Dr. Russos' approach to my therapy was more holistic and natural, which I prefer! He does not have a "cookie cutter" approach to managing his patients, this is obvious. I felt better and saw results within 2 weeks with this practice. Staff is friendly and very efficient. Very happy I switched to Dr Russo @ Advanced Physical Medicine! read more

I initially was searching on the internet for a chiropractor for my sister who was in so much pain that she was unable to walk upright. Immediately after seeing the doctor she was pain free. After I saw how they quickly helped her, I decided to give them a try as well. I had previously seen several doctors for tendonitis in my wrist. I must say after several treatments, my wrist is so much. Its as if it never happen. Feeling extremely grateful that I found Advanced Physical Medicine. read more

At advanced physical medicine they are very attentive to your needs... The doctors & the physical therapist are great

It seems the reviews of APM on North Ave are hit or miss, but for me it was an absolute hit. I had a suspected broken foot, and no insurance. Called for a same day appointment - no problem. The waiting room was clean, and the staff were friendly. Quickly completed the formalities and was taken to a room for x-rays with immediate analysis by Dr Bender. She answered all my questions, gave good practical advice, and provided a 'shoe' to help heal my foot. She also provided her contact details and was happy to provide any follow-up support or advice as needed. In and out with good service in under 45 minutes for $150. I'm not sure the healthcare experience here can go much more smoothly. read more

The massage therapists are wonderful and the reception staff are always polite. They fit me in around my schedule and take my insurance. Fitness equipment is not all utilized and would be helpful. read more

The staff and chiropractor is very efficient. They never waste time getting me in and out. Each time I come, I always leave feeling like my health is improving...and I am looking forward to that! I would recommend this clinic to others. read more

Very disappointed in this place, unprofessional Arrogant Medical Assistant Amanda or whatever her name, dark haired short woman was extremely rude to me... long story short, was running 8 mins late for my appointment, but call in advance to let them know was in the area be there soon, so arrived and waited approx. 12 mins just to be told by Amanda that I was late and that she had other patients at 6pm, ok I understand so just shorten my appointment time or at best THEY SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE TO NOT COME IN.... she rudely says to me NO, I said " first of all I sat and waited 12 mins so what about that?" She wanted to go back and forth with me and tell me I was not waiting long... since I could feel the rage inside of me having drove over 20 miles to get there, I was not going to continue to argue my point as she clearly was not trying to understand me, her attitude, with the huffy and puffy tone of voice almost made me lose self control. Not sure who she's use to dealing with or who's been letting her get away with this crap,, but she picked the wrong one!! Anyway...I left, very upset.. I could not believe the rudeness.. Needless to say I WILL NEVER EVER RETURN TO THIS PLACE. MY WORTH IS FAR TOO MUCH FOR THIS PLACE AS I AM MORE THAN A LOYAL PATRON. SO SAD THAT THE ARROGANCE OF SOME CERTIFIED MEDICAL ASSITANT COULD RUN AWAY CLIENTS...I WILL DEF SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT HOW GREAT OF AN EXPERIENCE I HAD HERE. read more
