I called 5 other facilities as well but immediately felt comfortable with the amount of attention I received from the manager, Brad right from the start. Brad, as my therapist was incredibly thorough and detailed during our initial assessment. He was very calming and was able to put my mind at ease. I'm looking forward to continuing my therapy with Brad and his team and highly recommend them.

Step Forward Therapy is a wonderful place for pediatric therapy support. Our son has gotten OT…read morethere starting in late 2020 for 18 months. We also have started going back this fall (2022) for intermittent OT support as our son has gotten better, but still benefits from occasional sessions. Our son works with Ms Jillian who is a phenomenal OT. She is kind, funny, warm, and so creative! When she started working with our son, he was starting second grade as a non-writer (but on target with other skills). She quickly figured out he has weak fine motor skills (exacerbated by a previous wrist break at a trampoline park). Honestly, to see his progress over two years later is nothing short of incredible. She makes handwriting fun! Professionally I am actually a speech pathologist and I can tell this is a great private practice clinic. With respect to a previous review mentioning staffing concerns, I would like to share that this is happening everywhere right now (private practices, schools, hospitals, etc). Speech, OT, and PT are in high demand across the Chicagoland area and there are vacancies everywhere (due to shortages in the profession and Covid making those shortages worse). That being said I have not seen or heard of any staffing issues at Step Forward, from the parent perspective. We love it here!

I would advice to completely keep your children away from this place, especially when it comes to…read moretherapies. When we first started, we were happy with our therapy team. Then very quickly, within several months, everyone on our team starting to leave. Our son has Down syndrome so it's important to have him get all three therapies: OT, PT and speech at least once weekly. But we gave them the benefit of the doubt and waited until they filled in the spots. We waited months for a second session per week that was never met because they said their PT wasn't available and unable to fit us in. Well, I just saw that our son's PT was also working the preschool side of their business (which is not a good excuse for being unable to fit us in if they claim to be a therapy clinic). So on top of not having enough therapists for their therapy customers, they have them work the preschool side as well (our original PT had said they worked both, which I'm guessing is a large part of why he left). So this week, our son's "new" OT who had only been there weeks is leaving asap with no heads up with no replacement. This place is disorganized and unprofessional. I've had 2-3 separate people calling or texting me with the same scheduling issues or questions. There is no central manager, and management is non-existent at best. Billing is even worse. Then, because we felt we had to leave because they couldn't meet our son's needs (and this was the third time we were told to wait for a therapist replacement in less than a half year), they sent an email demanding remaining balance due within a week because we were "no longer clients!!" I've never been treated so poorly and unprofessionally by a clinical office ever in my life. That is not how billing should work because they haven't even finished filing claims for therapy services through our insurance. Plus, they never answered my questions on why billing amounts ranged so differently by even over a hundred dollars for the same services. I'm not an expert in billing, but their billing manager Jackie should be fired for treating families so poorly. I even tried to work out a payment system with them when our HSA funds each pay period (so the balance would be paid in a couple of months), to which she replied with a demand that full balance be paid immediately (in 2 days, no less) with full payment due immediately as soon as they process the insurance claims. I have a lot of medical issues, and I even delayed my insulin pump and diabetic supplies and stretch them further to make it a priority to pay their clinic. It's like they act like some loan shark mobster group or something in the way they demand payment. I've never seen a clinic act in such a way. And if it's due to desperation because they are so poorly managed (I don't know why else they would act this way), then that's even more reason to stay away. So if you are looking for a therapy clinic or even a preschool with consistent staff who treat their clients respectfully and professionally, my advice is to run away as fast as possible.

The food is also good, though lacking of salt (cardiac diet after all) but still plated restaurant style, and inviting to patients. The rehab specialists are positive and interact well with patients. There should be more nurses and CNAs though available to help. My mom was pretty high functioning, I would have been worried if she wasn't because it takes awhile for them to answer their call button. Some of the rooms are far from the nursing station, and that concerns me because what if someone falls, and no one knows. It takes 15 minutes for someone to respond to the call light, that felt disconcerting to me.

Last Monday November 25 I called at 8 AM to notify patient coordinator that my babies are sick and we have to cancel our 3 PM appointment. In an hour I received 2 reminders about our upcoming appointments, so I called again to make sure the care coordinator really cancelled my appointments. I was assured that she cancelled and these reminders I got are came automatically. When I asked Why I have to pay "non showing fee" the care coordinator named Des'Ree said I had to notify her 24 hours upfront. Ok, how I can predict all sickness which can happen with 14 months twins? I notified her 7 hours upfront as soon as possible.To say that I was angry is to say nothing. In October the same care coordinator charged me for 30 minutes sessions as a one hour session. So in that case I also didn't get any clarification. I want to say that with previous care coordinator we did not have any issues. She always greeted us compare to a new lady who never say any kind of greetings for me or for babies. I guess small kids deserve a little "care" .At the same day outstanding balances were removed from both accounts. One day later these "fees" appeared again on my babies accounts. I tried to contact with any manager of this facility,however nobody has responded yet.So sad that I have to write this review when I had so positive experience with our Amazing Doctors!

To be clear of my experience: Therapist was outstanding…read more Reason behind my rating: When I had originally enrolled my son to work with this facility my first and most important request was that he would have the ability to work with the same therapist. In receiving services with cps there was a lot inconsistency with services and the therapist was changing frequently. So naturally I thought that if we paid for private services this problem can be avoided. So I searched for a private practice . I was assured that the request for having my child consistently work with the same therapist would be fulfilled. Those assurances gave me peace of mind and with that we enroll our child. Now I'm being informed that my child will no longer be able to work with the same therapist due to policy change. I asked what the out of pocket expense would be to keep my son with the same therapist and was informed that "regrettably" that wasn't an option. Again I re-iterated to the facility prior to enrollment the importance it was for me to have 1 instructor work with my child. And now (a few short months later) my family and I can no longer be accommodated.
