That is part of an Advocate Health Care office building and it is adjacent to a surgicenter just off the intersection of I-80 and LaGrange Road, very easy to find for all to find including Uber and Lyft drivers. There is ample parking. This was a yearly follow-up non-emergency appointment in a new setting for my ophthalmologist which included a new pair of glasses for me as I wanted to replace my older ones. My ophthalmologist is a provider at the practice and it was great to see her in her new setting; they are state of the art equipment and computer applications utilized. The staff are excellent. Part of the staffing include an optician who really knows her field. We found a suitable glasses frame very easily. The orientation of the practice accommodates all ages including pediatric care. As I came into the practice via Medicare, supplemental coverage and out of pocket, I do not know their insurance details. When making an appointment, I would ask about insurance coverage including optical. Note: if you wish bring your own coffee; there are vending machines in the space between the office complex and the surgicenter which is near the main entrance to the building.

Yes he was wearing a mask and he said he got the shot, and then continued to chitchat about how his daughter attended a large gathering where 15 people later got COVID, but that his daughter didn't bc she had the shot. Not exactly what I wanted to hear when being in close quarters with someone. He honestly seemed sick. And he had open wounds all over his knuckles that were not bandaged up. They were bloody, and when I asked what happened to his hand he said "oh it's nothing, just dry and cracked." But he's a doctor and that should've been covered especially since I could see blood. I told him I'd like to continue doing my test rather than chitchat as I had lots to do that day. I got my prescription but the doc neglected to write the PD down. I realize the optometrist does this and not the doctor, but knowing that you need that number to get new glasses why wouldn't they just do that?

The staff seemed nervous and told me they were waiting for him to arrive. I was put in a room where someone (she did not introduce herself) gave me the exam with the letters on a chart. I could hear another patient in the room next door. I heard Dr. Kirk arrive at 11:30, an hour after my appointment. He treated the other patient first. When he finally came to me, he did not apologize or offer any explanation, or even friendly chit chat as he had in the past. While waiting over an hour for him, I had had to change appointments. He gave me a cursory exam, including dilating my pupils. I had to ask about my cataracts. He said they had grown and I could have the surgery or not. The he said he could change my prescription or not. No expert opinion or advice. He was not the same doctor I have known for years and I have made an appointment with another ophthalmologist. I will not be back.

My first surgery in my right eye went smoothly and follow up with Dr Ticho was fine. I wish I could say the same about my second surgery. The whole procedure was bad from the very beginning. It would take too long to list everything that didn't go well in that surgical center. Suffice it to say that my eye was not numbed sufficiently and I felt the beginning of the laser procedure. This led to more chaos in the surgical suite. After surgery I had multiple issues with my left eye including a post-op subconjunctival hematoma. I subsequently had multiple office visits -- all of which I made to specifically see Dr Ticho. Needless to say, I did NOT see Dr Ticho again at any of those office visits. When I asked why I wasn't seeing him the answer was always vague. I know he was there because I heard his voice in other rooms and the staff told me he was there. My left eye vision wasn't getting any better so I made the decision to stop attempting to see the man that did the surgery. I have since found an AMAZING ophthalmologist at Endeavor Health. He has since helped me immensely with restoring my vision in my left eye.
