I was lucky enough to find Dr. Whitfield at UIC. I have had clinical depression for over 10 years and Dr. Whitfield is now my 5th PDoc and I feel he is the best that i've had. Just last week he spent 1 1/2 hours with me and has done a great job managing my meds. Mental illness really sucks, and it makes it that much worse when you don't have access to good quality Medical help.

Mark, the president of this clinic, is always very responsive to my emails and so helpful when it comes to helping me find the right therapist. My current provider, Kenneth Roster, is an outstanding physician. He truly listens, provides thoughtful medication management, and takes care of referrals efficiently. He's easily one of the best providers I've worked with throughout my years in therapy. I also had the pleasure of working with Dr. Donita Lester for several months, and she was wonderful! She is patient, flexible, understanding, and insightful. She really listened to me and challenged me in meaningful ways that helped me grow. Everyone here is professional, supportive, and caring. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking quality mental health care. Reach out to Dr. Mark as he ensures every patient is well taken care of. Five stars!! Thank you for always being so kind to your patients.

I'm a graduate of Northwestern University and was distraught over my outcomes with other psychiatrists. I felt like I didn't suffer through that school to be on disability. Susan is a breath of fresh air. While she isn't in-network with any insurance company, her prices are reasonable (she's worth every penny), and she will work with your insurance on things like getting your prescriptions covered, provide you with documentation if you have out-of-network coverage, and fill out any sort of job-related paperwork that may be needed. I think it's saying something that she keeps her patient population functioning so well that they can continue to see her, even in the rough times. Unlike so many other psychiatrists, to the best of my knowledge Susan doesn't have patients in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, or regularly in an inpatient setting. We're all contributing members of society and she keeps us that way. As psych patients, I believe that's the most we can ask for: to be indistinguishable from people without mental illness. Susan ensures just that. If there's one thing you should spend a little extra on, it's your health. Take my word for it. Make your mental health a priority with Susan Bank. You'll be happy you did!

When in crisis, he is always available to check in with us and/or schedule an appointment. I appreciate his honesty, compassion, and communication.

I have had nothing but good experiences with the staff, despite less than stellar insurance that caused all of us misery. I would highly recommend this practice.

After his retirement, my experience changed significantly. I was assigned a new practitioner, but after she left the practice, I was never informed who would be managing my care. Communication became inconsistent, and continuity of care suffered. The most concerning part of my experience was being unable to obtain my prescribed medication on time during this transition. For a mental health practice, clear communication and continuity of care are essential. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet those expectations, which is why I can no longer recommend this practice.

Setting up an appointment was a breeze - the…read morereceptionist, Angie, is a sweetheart, and she was able to squeeze me in when luckily there was a cancellation. The office is located off of St. Clair in the Northwestern Memorial building (and there is validated parking available); the office is very cute, clean, and modern, and I waited less than 10 minutes after my scheduled time (which is pretty much unheard of; the receptionist also apologized which I thought was ridiculous!). I filled out basic medical history and such on their patient portal beforehand, which I thought was quite convenient and makes things more efficient. I was really excited with all the raving reviews on not only on Yelp, but on other health websites that rated Dr. O'Mara. When the doc walked in, she was extremely nice, very knowledgeable, straightforward, a great listener, gentle, professional, and very informative. She listened to all of my health issues as well as my thoughts and opinions, and basically gave me a plan of action. She took her time with me, asking questions, and the whole time, I was not felt rushed! The best thing is that she was very genuine and I was extremely comfortable, being a new patient with all these high expectations! There is a lab on-site, and the phlebotomist, Lauren P., was so sweet and kind, and drawing blood was not at all uncomfortable (considering I have a very low threshold of pain and am such a pansy!). Dr. O'Mara and everyone on staff seems to be extremely detail-oriented and organized (which I absolutely love). The high ratings on the doc do not do her justice - she really is AWESOME. I have a follow-up next week am actually looking forward to a doctor's appointment - isn't that crazy?! I am looking forward in being Dr. O'Mara's patient for years to come! +ask for Angie, the receptionist :D +Dr. O'Mara = AWESOME +limited parking (park at garage)

I wish I could give Dr. O'Mara higher praise than 5 stars. I have recommended friends and…read morecoworkers alike, and now I recommend her to you. Dr. O'Mara's office is a clean, modern one-physician practice. She exhibits all of the professionalism and knowledge I have come to expect and appreciate from Northwestern practitioners and affiliates. I was randomly assigned to her through Northwestern's physician referral practice after I suffered a serious medical event and I was shocked by how great my experiences with her have been. My initial consultation was in her office, where she interviewed me about all of my health concerns, family history, and really took the time to get to know both me as a person and my health issues. Despite a relatively complicated health history, Dr. O'Mara has gone above and beyond. She takes the time to research issues about my medicine and listens to my questions, no matter how silly they may seem to me, in a non judgmental environment. She has followed up on problems or before procedures through phone calls about things I, at times, hadn't even thought about. She is always eager to explain these things to me. She truly cares about her patient's well being and happiness -- even following up on what I thought about places she had sent me for a referral. In short, I have never received this level of care with any doctor before. Her assistant, Angie, is also very nice and helpful. To top it off, it's extremely easy to make appointments here, and Dr. O'Mara keeps an electronic portal where you can ask her questions, view your test results quickly, and access other features from your visits. If you need a new internal medicine doctor, visit Dr. O'Mara.
