It turns out, extended exposure to pets causes my body to go haywire. I called Dr. Sabin's office after painful rashes that cracked and bled appeared on my hands and constant wheezing and coughing kept me up all night for three days. I got in the next day. He saw me on time. He immediately prescribed me what I needed so I could finally get rest. And during my visit, he gave me a flu shot! Just a day after I saw him, I feel much better. My wheezing and coughing have substantially decreased already. That Dr. Sabin is both an internist and an allergist is a godsend. I feel very fortunate to have him as my doctor. His level of professionalism and care is outstanding.

He was smart, kind, and really understood my issues and experiences. He prescribed meds that made me feel better the same day, and I have follow-up visits scheduled soon. I'd totally recommend Dr. Pritikin and his team. This experience just makes me want to consider other specialists outside my PCP network.

If you are looking for the best podiatrist in Chicago, I cannot recommend Dr. Usman at Michigan Avenue Podiatry Clinic highly enough. I originally went in suffering from two very stubborn issues: severe plantar fasciitis and fungal nails. Although as a doctor, I know a few treatments for these issues, this is not my field so I had to go to a specialist. I had been dealing with debilitating heel pain from my plantar fasciitis for literally years. I felt like I had tried everything to get relief, but Dr. Usman accurately assessed my condition, give me SEVERAL options and ultimately I went with shockwave therapy. The results were incredible. Not many doctors offer shockwave therapy and since this is something that regenerates the tissue where as your typical steroid injection can break down and weaken tissue I wanted a solution that was going to naturally help my body. By my 4th Shockwave visit, the chronic pain I had lived with for years was finally going away. If you have stubborn heel pain or arch pain, this treatment is an absolute game-changer. At the same time, we tackled my fungal nails. Instead of just prescribing topical creams, the clinic used advanced laser therapy for the toenail fungus. The process was quick, professional, and it's great to find a foot doctor who utilizes modern technology to get actual results--I wish my own hospital I work at used the same technology. What really sets Dr. Usman apart is his comprehensive approach to sports medicine and foot health. Because I am a runner, they didn't just treat the immediate symptoms. They took the time to discuss my biomechanics and recommended the proper running shoes to ensure I stay injury-free and keep my plantar fasciitis from returning. If you are a runner, an athlete, or just someone in the Chicago area who has been putting up with chronic foot pain or nail issues for way too long, do yourself a favor and book an appointment here. Between the cutting-edge treatments like shockwave and laser therapy, and the personalized footwear advice, this is by far the top foot and ankle clinic around.

I found Michigan Avenue Internists a few years ago through Zocdoc. And I wouldn't hesitate to…read morerecommend coming here! Dr. Ballintine is hands down one of the best doctors I've ever seen, and I feel so lucky to have her as my primary care physician! Someone once told me your primary care doctor should be like your healthcare quarterback, managing all your concerns and sending you out for referrals as necessary. Dr. Ballintine does just that, with quick and easy referrals to Northwestern when needed and most things managed in-house. She's helped me with everything from migraines and anxiety to infections and annual physicals. Working in healthcare myself, I know I'm a bit of a doctor snob. But Dr. Ballintine exceeds my expectations for what primary care should look like. She's thorough (but not overly so), personable, and remembers each of my healthcare issues (likely thanks to great documentation -- also a plus). Appointments are easy to schedule, and she's quick to respond to messages on the patient portal. Literally zero complaints. Bonus: Michigan Avenue Internists just recently moved to a new office, and it's BEAUTIFUL.

I made an initial appointment with a doctor at One Medical after my health insurance assigned their…read morepractice as my designated PCP. I was really pleased with how easy it was to set up an appointment on the app. I uploaded my insurance information on the app and presented it again to the receptionist when I arrived for my appointment. I saw the doctor and was pleased with my care. However, I needed a prior authorization for a prescription and everything went downhill. Long story short, I contacted One Medical three times by app (as instructed) to request the PA. The app has read receipts, so the staff saw my request. I never received a response. A week before I was going to be out of my medication, I was finally able to get in contact with a customer service rep at their corporate office. She was very apologetic about the issue and had the office manager reach out to me. The office manager told me they didn't take my insurance and that they would not do the PA. I felt like the office manager was blaming me for the issue. However, my insurance company assigned One Medical to me, said One Medical was a participating office when I called, and had them listed online as in network, so I didn't appreciate the insinuation that I did not do my due diligence. One Medical had multiple opportunities to let me know that they did not accept my insurance, but chose to ghost me until I reached out to corporate. I was left without care and with an empty prescription. It was difficult to find a new provider on such short notice, so I had to go without my medication. Had One Medical paid attention when I booked my appointment, showed my insurance card to the receptionist, or during the 3 times I reached out about my PA, I could have started the search earlier and found a new doctor. One Medical is careless at best and negligent at worst. With so many other options in Chicago, I could not recommend One Medical in good faith.

I was a little lazy about using the peak flow test at first, but Dr. Handoyo didn't get annoyed. He just explained the importance of getting a good baseline record of my lung capacity and how it would help him to provide the best treatment, so I made a commitment to be a better patient. With the pandemic and his specialty, I know he is at a greater risk than other doctors, so I especially appreciate his professionalism and efforts to ensure the health and safety of his patients.
