I had scheduled surgery this morning. But even before today I had to come for bloodwork, scans and…read morea pre-op counseling class as a precaution. Honestly I was, at first, thinking this was a lot. But I quickly changed my mind. I was assured they knew I chose the right hospital! Registration was so easy, the associate was extremely professional but also had such an amazing personality. She could see I was nervous, she took the time to stop for a minute to let me know I was in good hands. She wasn't saying that just to say it, she has experienced all kinds of services and she would never go anywhere else. I feel bad I forgot her name because this was 3 days ago. 8/17/26 6:30 pm is when I met her. Fast forward to today, arrival was 5:45 am I went up to the second floor and check in was smooth - all of my information was accurate so I just waited for my turn, I made sure to get names this time! My journey began with Pre-Op nurse NATALIE, best beginning to my scary day! Her bedside manner should be standard. So kind and patient, explaining everything. She raved about the ELMHUST Team in comparison to other facilities/ experiences. The next step to my journey was surgery, Nick was my OR Nurse, again explained what's happening and the team that would be in there. Margaret, Anesthesiologist Nurse and Dr Bautista, Anesthesiologist . Just as amazing Margaret heard my surprise with the OR table and helped to reassure me. Dr Bautista was fast but clearly explained what his job was and what the procedure would be. Margaret had a CCU nurse but I couldn't remember her name ( I'm sorry) she was so sweet smiling the entire team did Great! Next stop over to Post Op and Wendy! I don't remember much but I do know she stayed close, she was kind. She explained everting went well and the Dr had already notified my family. I think I slept a lot of Post OP because she said after a little while they need me to stay awake, she told me where I was going next and I was rolled away! Off to Observation a new unit in the first floor near the ER. It was really nice- clean and definitely everything new. STAFF! Kudos to all of them for their professionalism, kindness, comforting words and supportive comments. Everyone was GREAT!! RN: Ricky PCT: Elizabeth RN: Jaquita PCT: Xavier PCT: Marilou Literally everyone was a little ray of Sunshine. I didnt have any bad experiences. Apologies for my winded review but if you chose Elmhurst Hospital for your Outpatient Surgical Services you will not regret it! PS my Surgeon Dr Ryon Hennessy and his PA are from Orthopedic Specialist. I will do a separate review for that team. Also Hospital OT team, I will do a separate review but still GREAT

I went in and all of the staff were super friendly and sweet. However, I do think some staff…read moremembers could use additional communication training. I was told by a nurse to park outside the main entrance because my father would be brought down shortly. I waited for about an hour, but he never came out. I called Customer Service for an update, and they told me that he had been released a while ago. However, no one brought him down to me like I was told they would. I then spent about 20 minutes looking for him because he had given me his phone. When I finally found him, I learned that he had been told something completely different--that I was supposed to wait outside of his room for him. They also told my father that I wasn't answering the hospital's calls. However, I answered every single time they called. I would repeatedly say "hello," but there would be no response on the other end. So I was very confused and frustrated to hear that they told him I wasn't answering when I was picking up every call. This resulted in my father and I getting into an argument because we were given two completely different stories. This could have easily been avoided with better communication between staff, patients, and their families. Overall, everyone I interacted with was kind, but the communication definitely needs improvement. Please work on making sure patients and their families are given consistent, accurate, and clear information. Thank you!

Out of network means I would be paying more and certain injections would not be covered. I was considering the PRP injections on one knee and the Stemforce on the surgical knee. I had ACL revision in my knee in 2002. Trying to avoid surgery. It would be $6500 for both knees since insurance companies don't cover it, even if I was in network. My original evaluation went well and I was looking forward with moving forward. Back to the drawing board. They really need to get the insurance squared away before making appointments. Edit: As far as transparency goes, another clinic verify insurance from the start. I had the consultation on a Thursday and when I returned on Monday for PT I was not informed that I was not in network until I questioned the higher copay. I should have been contacted by them once they knew I was not in network. One of the doctors commented about covered injections I would be paying out of pocket. I'm reaching out to another similar company and they will check on coverage from the start.

I credit this office, Dr. Kolb, and receptionist Patty, for helping me grow up with not only no fear of the dentist, but actually looking forward to going there. They truly KNOW us, and always ask how my parents and sibling are doing (and remember what is going on from the last time they were in for cleanings, etc). As far as services, the office is gorgeous, sparkling clean, huge with so many bays, new kits are always used, the most up to date technology is constantly coming in, and rarely am I told that a service is not available at this office or a dental specialist is not available on site to help me out (only when I've needed intricate oral surgery). Everyone is very professional, but like I said, I make the drive back to this office because I love the fact that the people here are all so friendly, and Dr. Kolb and Patty are people I have known since I was a kid. I even know many of the hygienists, but even people I don't really know are wonderful, friendly, and professional. I can honestly say I have never had a negative experience here. It's a wonderful, clean, professional office, and even when that scary cavity drill has started (yeah, happens to the best of us) I haven't been nervous, because I trust my dentist completely. If I were just a good dental patient, I'd switch offices to somewhere closer to home. But I love this office. It's worth the 45 minute drive. They're just that great.
