Service is professional and compassionate and they treat each person with respect and dignity. The office is very clean and in a building with multiple offices so it's also discreet. In the waiting room (which has pink chairs and lovely photos of confident women), there is a book of comment cards that you can read from all the women who have visited the clinic previously. Reading them really inspires confidence because they are so personal but also very positive. It's not easy to know who to trust about abortion care in Chicago but this is an excellent place.

And wouldn't answer my questions in regards to those missed follow-ups without requiring me to make yet another appointment & had the audacity to be RUDE about it. Total lack of accountability and competence. Totally forgot about me 3 times in the 2 years I'd been seeing them. Dr. Grabemeyer-Layman has horrible bedside manners, abrasive communication style and lacks accountability for her shortcomings. If you value healthy communication, respectful interactions & timely follow-ups I don't recommend wasting your time or resources with her.

How does that even happen? The best they could offer was to reschedule us another week out. We've been waiting our entire pregnancy for this, and this level of incompetence is beyond frustrating.

This was one of the worst medical experiences of my life. The only positive part of this practice…read moreis the nurse practitioner, who is truly wonderful. If she could have delivered my baby, I would have stayed. Unfortunately, that wasn't an option. I found this private practice after seeing someone say, "I trust Dr. Gandhi with my life." My experience could not have been more different. I began care here during my first pregnancy and felt supported during the first 12 weeks with the nurse practitioner. Once I transitioned to Dr. Gandhi, everything changed. Nine times out of ten I was the only patient in the office. Despite that, every appointment felt extremely rushed and chaotic. She would speak so fast while reviewing my chart it felt like listening to an auctioneer. I assumed she was overbooked, but the office was almost always empty. She would walk in saying "hi hi let me find my brain," rush through my medication list, and incorrectly say I wasn't taking medications that were clearly documented. When I corrected her, she admitted she skipped over them because she was moving too fast. That alone is very concerning for an OB. Her language was also extremely unprofessional. At nearly every appointment she used words like "f***," "s***," and "a**." At one visit I counted at least five times. She even said, "If you don't give a f***, I don't give a f***." I have never heard a physician speak this way to a pregnant patient. It was shocking and inappropriate. Things escalated when I became very sick and was hospitalized during pregnancy. I called her emergency line to confirm if ER-prescribed medication was safe. Her response was, "Listen to them, they know better than I do." She said she would review my paperwork and call me back within the hour. She never called. The next day she barely remembered the conversation and dismissed how sick I had been. I told her I needed the medication and would manage my blood sugars. She acknowledged it would raise them. I later submitted my glucose log clearly showing the medication caused elevated readings, and I still received a Walgreens alert that insulin had been prescribed with no call or discussion. The nurse practitioner later called saying my sugars were "so high" I needed insulin immediately. I explained everything. It became clear Dr. Gandhi had not documented anything from our emergency call and had not informed the team. They were about to start insulin based on incorrect, medication-induced readings. I could hear her in the background say, "Oh yeah that's right, tell her to hold off on the insulin then." There was no documentation, no follow-up, and at my next visit she didn't even ask how I was doing after being hospitalized. At another appointment I had to ask when my next ultrasound was, because nothing had been scheduled after my 20-week anatomy scan with a high-risk specialist. Referrals had not been sent. Had I not asked, I would have had nothing scheduled. She blamed the hospital, then moved ultrasounds in-house, but later still asked when my next high-risk ultrasound was despite making that change. It was disorganized and stressful. If you don't bring questions, appointments consist of weight, belly measurement, rushing through meds, and "any questions?" with no guidance or preparation for what's ahead. She met my husband multiple times, yet later said, "Nice to meet you, we haven't met before." We also declined the Tdap vaccine at 26 weeks, which was documented, yet at 28 weeks she came in saying, "The girls will give you your TDAP," without checking notes. The nurses were confused and already had a declination form ready. When I messaged her saying I felt rushed and anxious due to lack of preparation, she responded in all caps: "IM SORRY YOU FELT RUSHED. I ASK STUPID QUESTIONS OVER AND OVER OFTEN REPEATING MYSELF." None of my concerns were addressed. I transferred care immediately. My first appointment with a new OB was completely different. I left informed, calm, and supported. My new office also found missing and incomplete documentation throughout my records. Additional concerns include the ultrasound technician never introducing herself or communicating, and poor blood draw experiences where blood was spilled. This is now the second time I have left a review, as my previous reviews appear to have been deleted or hidden by the practice. That alone is very concerning when trying to share honest patient experiences. This practice caused unnecessary stress and anxiety during a vulnerable time in my pregnancy. Between rushed visits, lack of communication, unprofessional behavior, missed referrals, poor documentation, and safety concerns with medication management, I cannot recommend this office. The difference after transferring care was immediate.

But I struggle with follow up issues. They tell me he'll follow up with test results. But that seems to be via their online portal...which doesn't work on a smart phone. Then when I call for more info on a prescribed med 20 minutes before they close, the answering service answers and will only take a message if it's an emergency. So I can't speak to a human during their business hours and I can't leave a message to get follow up support...so this leaves Yelp I suppose! Go to them for great medical care but know you need some flexibility in your schedule to talk with them and their Saturday appointments fill up fast.

I'd seriously injured my back and was having trouble walking more than a block or two. I found Dr. Martindale through Zocdoc, and when I called in, he managed to squeeze me in for a same-day appointment -- SO thankful!

Three visits later, and I was 90% back to normal. Bonus: Dr. Martindale is also just a really nice human being. Between back pain and migraine treatment, I've seen a handful of chiropractors in the last five years. But Chicago Pain & Wellness was without a doubt one of the best, and I wouldn't hesitate to come back.
