Less than 48 hours returning from our month-long trip to Asia, I ended up spraining my ankle from a…read morefall off a sidewalk ledge onto uneven street pavement. The feeling was all too familiar as I had sprained my ankle over a decade ago on NYE. For the first few days I figured I would be fine and tough it out on my own. I eventually came to Endeavor Health/NorthShore hospital in Skokie and visited their Ortho Immediate Care unit. I wanted to make sure it was just a sprain and nothing more. I arrived as a walk-in on a weeknight sans appointment and met with Dr. McCracken soon after checking in. He ordered an x-ray and within minutes after the x-ray, he was able to read and go over the results with me. Thankfully he found no visible breaks in bone, wrote up a doctors note for work and placed me on an ankle brace for a couple of weeks until my ankle fully healed. It's been a month since my injury and I'm happy to report that I am near to full function! I'm able to walk with no issue and have made progress. I've started to go back to the gym with the hopes that in a few weeks I'll be run ready. I'm so glad the Endeavor Health/NorthShore Immediate Care Ortho facility saw me during a weeknight. There's not many Ortho Immediate Care facilities I'm aware of and with this location less than 20 minutes away, this was super convenient.

My experience at the clinic was bad experience in the "Elterman Center for Women's and Men's Health, Skokie, IL" Very Rude Staff, Horrible Staff at the "Elterman Center for Women's and Men's Health, Skokie, IL" as I went to inquire with the receptionist, and although they had no clients waiting at the receptionist desk, I was made to wait excess of 45 minutes to simply talk with the receptionist. Ella who claimed to be the Manager of the Clinic, was Very Rude and Was Not Professional at At All!!(not sure about the receptionist's name spelling). The Skokie IL Clinic Manager (or so she claimed to be the manager), told me: "There are many Urologists around and go find another Urologist!!!!". This encounter took place at the "Elterman Center for Women's and Men's Health, Skokie, IL". Apparently, the Staff at the clinic "Elterman Center for Women's and Men's Health, Skokie, IL" does not really care about their clients as they feel they have enough customer/patient flow to feel they do not need to maintain positive relationship with their customers or patients. I do not recommend the "Elterman Center for Women's and Men's Health, Skokie, IL". The clinic is clouded with patients at the front. I am not sure this is within the "Health Code" for occupancy limits.

I came from a gynecological oncology office where communication and education were not a priority…read more I felt like I was on an assembly line and any time I asked a question, I felt like a nuisance. I decided to go to the Block Center after I had a bad experience with my first round of chemo and no one from my previous office called me back for days to tell me the new plan. I was afraid and overwhelmed. When I contacted the Block Center, I spoke with my patient advocate, Sherry, daily for the first week while we were getting my appointments scheduled. She was right there for any questions I had. When it came to my insurance questions, Jenny Sue was on it. They never once missed a call and left me hanging and confused. When I got to speak with the doctors and dietician, they laid out a wonderful comprehensive plan for my care. It was tailored to me and full of little details so I didn't have to hunt for them on my own. Whereas my previous oncologist sent me home with no information, the Block Center sent me a packet of over 100 pages to make chemo treatments the most effective. Dr. Nimmagadda, the oncologist, was thorough and asked details such as, "Were you interested in egg harvesting?" and "Would you like to try a cold cap to potentially save your hair?" Danielle, the dietician took the time to explain the reasoning behind certain dietary changes. Penny Block encouraged me and made me feel as if I might not only live through this but thrive. Due to covid, the appointments were virtual until I began treatment and no one was allowed in with me. Some people might not like that. I am grateful for it. Once I started treatment, though, I worried that I might have a reaction while no one was with me. My nurse, Julie, sensed my fears and pulled up a chair to chat with me while I started the drip until she knew I was okay. I knew that if there was a reaction she was right there. It meant more to me that she'll probably ever know. This weekend, I had a local lab send my results which I was unsure about. It's a holiday, and I felt stupid calling the doctor on-call because I would have been brushed off by my previous doctor. However, Dr. Block called me back and assured me that it was okay that I had called. He chatted with me about the results like I was a family member. Each and every person at this clinic has treated me like a human being- with dignity and respect. I don't know what will happen to me as far as my treatment or prognosis. It can be really scary, but I honestly feel as if I have a whole team of people who legitimately care and want me to get better. I would recommend the Block Center to anyone. I can't even express my gratitude to them.

Since this place was listed as an approved site, I made an appointment online with ease through my agency. Since I'm always an early bird, I got there at a much considerable time before my appointment; however, there were a couple of parties ahead of me that seemed to have been waiting for a while, actually going past their actual confirmed times. Later, we found out that the owner/employee sent an email or a message that the place was going to be closed until 12:30 PM, and that there was going to be a delay, but some of the individuals didn't receive it and/or did not check their phones. Honestly, I thought it was pretty unfair for those of us who actually had confirmed appointments but wasn't affected by the closure/delay was not prioritized and seen first; the ones who were contacted that had the earlier time slots were handled instead, causing another ripple of delay (again). Fortunately, the process was quick and efficient, all completed under a minute. Staff was friendly and apologized to everyone for the lateness. The place is not well-ventilated and extremely stuffy; there is a fan, but it'd be nice if there was an AC unit or something. It is tight quarters, so about 2 can be at the counter (for fingerprints), while the rest forms a line through the mini hallway. The place does accept walks-ins; however, the number posted on the entry door was not answered and went to voicemail. Note that the business is on the 2nd floor, and I didn't see any elevators on site. There's an entrance between an Asian eatery and an eyecare clinic. Plenty of 2-hour free street parking around the area. +appointment times not adhered to +may experience some delay(s) +friendly service +2nd floor, located between an Asian eatery and an eyecare business +street parking available

Over the phone they said lunch was from 1pm-2pm. once I got there (around 11am) I was misinformed about their only lab tech by a male rep stating how she was going out for lunch and their sign said "Lab Closed from ~ to 2:30pm". I said ok and that I will come back. Something did not suit right so I came back about 20-30 mins later to further ask questions because at first it just did not make sense. I walked in again and asked to clarifiy about the time, seeing that there were patients on the lab testing side of the building. I stated to the male rep about how confused I was about the lunch time. All of the sudden the same male rep stated how the only lab tech was still with patients. I stated ok and how he should have said that instead, because he made it seem like the lab tech had a long lunch break. He then proceeded to state how it is "not his job" to tell me that and how it is "not his fault" that I misinterpreted the conversation. The staff at the front desk looked at me as if I was about to start problems when he was the one speaking to me like I was an idiot in the first place. I felt insecure at that very moment just for coming back and asking a question for clarification. Usually the place has clear understanding, but recently they have been giving me a hard time with timing specifically. The male rep also stated how the people over the phone "do not know what is going on over here" when I specifically called the location number. This isn't acceptable especially towards patients who have a hard time/anxiety about asking questions regarding to their health. This man did not make things easier and has made me feel like a burden towards the staff. Hope this comes through respectfully.

They can't manage their schedules, so there is almost never a doctor or nurse available to take your question. They want you to use their online system, but if you send a message, no one will read it (you can see your message marked as "not yet read by staff" 8+ hours after you sent it). And good luck getting connected to a nurse on the phone. And this has happened on multiple occasions. During COVID, I brought my kids in for their yearly check up specifically for their vaccines. Well, their ordering system was down so no vaccines & no one bothered to call or tell us ahead of time. Multiple needless appointments during a pandemic is not great, with work & school missed. I love my kids' doctor--he is kind & knowledgable. I really do not love this practice though. And since our doc is likely close to retirement, I don't recommend this practice for pediatrics. We will be switching as soon as we can.
