WORST place ever. Had my appointment today, drove 45 minutes here just for them to tell me "oh,…read moresorry we have another patient at 1PM and there just won't be enough time to do it because we have to put the numbing cream on and that is going to take 30 minutes." Like..what?! I had an appointment already made weeks in advance, drove all the way here just for them to tell me that I had to leave. Not to mention, I didn't even get an apology for their MISTAKE! Insane. The staff were all rude. None of them said hello, and they seemed to hate working there. Another receptionist was shopping for clothes online.. what a joke, so unprofessional. Don't waste your time and money at this place. If you don't even have common courtesy for your patients, then why are you even running a "business?"

I completely relate to the review where they thought this entire experience was a prank. I too…read morebought a groupon (there's a reason why this place needs groupons to stay in business) and went for a massage yesterday. The groupon said "60 minute massage" but in reality, it was about 40 minutes. I got there 10 minutes early, as I do for massages, so I could get ready and start on time. My massage was at 2pm, and I got there at 1:50pm. I wasn't taken back to the room until 2:10pm. By the time I had to "sign in" (not sure why??) and the massage therapist left my room, it was 2:15. I was laying on the bed for 5 minutes or so, ready to go, before she came back in. It was 2:20 by the time she started putting ICE COLD LOTION on my back. She then proceeded to talk and talk and talk the entire massage. (Even worse, her talk was about gun violence, terrorism, and how in other countries it's much safer--- NOT RELAXING!) The massage bed was like a slightly padded wooden plank on folding sticks. I thought it was going to break- it was so creaky. And it was SO UNCOMFORTABLE lying on my stomach because there was no padding for my top half. It was painfully uncomfortable. Early on, I asked her to do a little firmer of a massage than what she was doing, so she started using her very sharp elbows in my back and tush muscles. It was so painful! So I asked her a few times to stop- it hurt- and she said "You told me you wanted a firm massage... and now you're complaining!" A "firm massage" does not mean bony elbows digging into my back. I'm just thankful she didn't hurt me. And yes, like the other person... just because they start 20 minutes late for you "60 minute massage" does not mean that they end 20 minutes late. She ended promptly at 3pm. But I was honestly thankful- I couldn't wait for this experience to be over. I left and tipped her generously because honestly, I don't feel like this was her fault- I feel like they hired someone who had not been trained to give a decent massage, and they have not given her the proper experience required of this profession. She seemed like a nice lady, just not trained and not experienced- she shouldn't have been giving massages. Period. Be warned--- this is NOT WORTH IT, even for the price of a groupon!!

He ended up buying both deals off of Groupon for us. I went in with no expectations. I did previously get a syringe of vollure in my lips at a different office and saw little difference. Her office is very clean, I went in and was greeted with a very friendly staff. Dr. Melamed took us in and began our consultation before our procedures. I told her that I have had Juvederm vollure injected, 6 months prior, in November at a different office. I also mentioned that I was looking for more volume with this appointment. She advised that she would recommend that we inject Juvederm ultra plus instead of the Juvederm ultra in order to achieve the results i was looking for. She had her assistant in the room with us to have a second set of eyes and opinion. She made adjustments throughout the procedure as needed and I cannot he happier with my results.

Dr. Kirson saved my life!…read more Listen. I've struggled with my weight my entire life. Especially since my hysterectomy at the tender age of 36. I've been on some damn diet since my teens. I've never been blessed with a good metabolism. No matter how much I worked out, it was always a struggle. First it was low fat, high carbs. (Watch any old episode of Frasier and you'll know what I'm talking about) Then it was the damn cabbage diet! Who remembers the cabbage diet? Then it was Atkins. Low Carb, Keto, Paleo, Juice, Intermittent Fasting. OMG can we just stop it already? This shit is getting out of control. And it's screwing with our heads. Then, 50 hit. And all my chickens came home to roost. I woke up overnight with high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Years of being healthy plus size caught up with me. Big is beautiful they say, until it's not. And being unhealthy for me is not a beautiful thing. When I got my cholesterol test, my general doctor told me to keep eating Keto. So I did. Told me NOT TO WORRY about my cholesterol because that my good cholesterol was good. How many damn times have we heard that! 1 year on Keto and I wan't losing. And my blood pressure and cholesterol was getting worse. Was I stressed? What was going on? After a crying jag I literally said to a doctor friend of mine "I have no fucking clue what I should be eating! Everyone, including doctors has an opinion about what I should be eating and everything is wrong. It wasn't about willpower. I was sick of it. Sensing my frustration, she sent me to Inbar Kirson. And that's when my life changed. Dr. Kirson IS a believer in the Keto diet but KETO is NOT for everyone, which is the camp I fall into. After extensive blood tests, we came up with a plan of action. My lipids were DANGEROUSLY high. So high I was freaked the hell out. Traditional Keto almost killed me! With some care and love, today I am doing a modified Keto diet that is low in saturated fat, good in healthy fats and no sugar or carbs. And guess what? 45lbs gone. It's taken me almost year to lose that, but slow and steady wins the race. The one thing I love best about Dr. Kirson is the fact she isn't judgmental and takes the time to explain things. And if you have a complicated question, she will find the answer from a trusted resource. When it came time to start my plan, she asked a lot about my daily habits and how I liked to eat and we came up with a plan that works for me. When something is a habit, a modification leads to more success than overnight change. With her help, I took my cholesterol from 320 to 165. In 8 weeks! My blood pressure went from 180/90 to 125/75 in a matter of months and I'm still losing weight. Slow but steady. Obviously it's up to me to do the work, and knowing I was insulin resistant made all the difference in the world. I haven't cheated because it's not a diet for me anymore. It's my way of life. How I must eat if I want to survive. (Ok, I did eat some cherries and I may eat 1 French fry off my hubby's plate) but I don't go out and eat a whole pizza. If you are sick of being sick about knowing what you should be eating, because you're tired of seeing the latest diet trend on Instagram or Pinterest, Dr. Kirson is not only kind and patient, she is a trusted resource in the medical community. If I could see her for everything I would. And I don't say that about many doctors. If you're struggling with menopause weight gain, do yourself a favor. Go see Dr. Kirson. Your skinny jeans are calling. So is your health.

Any practice hiding behind "FDA approved" meds is as much of a sham as a fly-by-night snake oil…read moresalesman. Appetite suppressants can't help for more than two months to get over leptin resistance. Restricted calorie diets need more, and close-minded practitioners won't entertain what works for maintaining muscle mass while depleting adipose stores. I also note no one mentions hormone testing, so it seems reverse T3 isn't even considered- which is a detriment to patients and a sign of "this is how it's always been done" old school narrow-minded medicine. You're better off venturing into the city to try to find someone who actually understands health and balancing the body.

Went to DexaFit after scheduling an appointment the prior week. I spoke with Kate over the phone…read moreand she politely answered all the questions I had about the process. When the time came for the appointment, I met Allie at the facility and she was absolutely amazing. Very friendly and helped me through the three scheduled tests (DEXA, RMR, VO2). She even coached me while I was on the treadmill for the VO2 to help me get those extra steps in. Great technician, top notch tools and super hygienic process overall. She printed the results immediately after the tests and went through each line item, one by one. Even though the appointment went slightly over the allotted time, she never rushed me or hesitated to answer my questions. All in all, this battery of tests was worth every penny. Not only was the experience seamless, the results now serve as the foundation for my fitness plan going forward. They say your body doesn't come with an instruction manual, but this comes awfully close! You get dozens upon dozens of metrics to help guide and adjust your future workout routines and eating habits. I will absolutely be recommending this to anyone who has fitness goals of their own. I ended up buying the 8-pack of credits to get these tests done in the future (wasn't pressured into doing so either, I did it to bring down the per-test cost).

I've felt like I've been guessing in the past and now I have science-backed body composition info that told me exactly what I need to do. I did a Dexa scan for body composition and got a good read on how much fat and muscle I have and where it is. I also learned one leg is 1lb stronger than the other which explains some joint pain I'm having. I also did an RMR which was awesome. I know exactly how many calories I burn a day at rest, with daily activity and working out. That's a game changer for me. I also now know my body burns sugar as energy before fat which is helpful since I'm trying to lose fat. This place rocks and I'm going back in 3 months to keep me accountable and see how I'm doing.

I became their patient more than a decade ago, when they were called "Your Medicos" at different location, and later on I brought several family members there, and I was sad to switch to a different doctor, who is a part of a larger Advocate Healthcare system with Patient Portal and centralized billing, who know all procedure codes, and it is very easy to communicate with them online in the Portal, unlike with BG Medical Center. Dr. Heggen is the best doctor I have ever met. He always listens and always discusses my tests with me and answers all my questions, and I have never met the general physician who knew so much about medicine. I especially appreciate that he does not pretend to be too important; he is down-to-Earth and very friendly with exceptional bedside manners. The office staff, Barno at the Front Desk and others, WERE very friendly and easy to work with, but, sadly, Barno is no longer there. The management, Yasser and Victoria, were always very friendly, but they and their off-site biller ALWAYS made billing errors (ALWAYS submitted wrong visit codes and descriptions to my insurance). I always gave them the printouts for the codes and procedure descriptions of my visits, but they (or biller) still always managed to submit the wrong codes and descriptions/names. Once they gave me their biller's contact, and I sent her all codes and screenshots, and she resubmitted the claim correctly, but it took me months of back-and-forth e-mails, and next time the story repeated, so I could not take it anymore. The biller said that it was the office who gave her the wrong codes (despite printouts I always gave them). I was sad and reluctant to leave, but... I was happy with my new doctor at Advocate and their billing - it was easy!
