I'm not only mortified by my experience but devastated, going as far as to say traumatized. She was…read moreincredibly insensitive. I am disabled and I'm morning my able body. she insisted that I'm just going to get better, that I just needed to exercise. She called herself an LGBTQ ally, emphasizing that she was not a member, then insisted on giving me 30 full minutes of unsolicited advice about MY body and gender identity. Telling me how I feel. I told her she was wrong about her remarks and she blamed my disability for my gender identity. I have never met anyone you has made such bold and incorrect statements about me, let alone a mental health "professional." Furthermore. She opted to inform me that I was "untreatable" and people with my condition are incapable of growth and change. She got an attitude and abruptly ended our session. I am not only disheartened but unmotivated to pursue further therapy for the time being.

The biggest red flag I had with Maya was when she told me "if I was gay, then she probably wouldn't…read morebe able to help me" Then she discloses she sees LGBT couples for relationship issues. It's not hard to be upfront. N insurance money shouldn't rule people like this. If I could give 0 stars I would.

You ARE NOT JUST A FACE HERE, YOU ARE A PERSON. Kelly is excellent and very, very compassionate. But my favorite is Sonny, as a guy I just relate to him like my uncle or something.

Susan is a wonderful facilitator with an amazing gift. I had been struggling with pain in my eyes, and after the session, it vanished as if by magic.

This review is long overdue. I did a past life regression/ LBL regression with Susan in December…read moreand the information and knowledge I received has helped me tremendously. Susan is a wonderful hypnotherapist who has a background in psychotherapy. She was warm and empathetic throughout the session which helped me to relax and feel comfortable. I had done a past life regression previously but my session with Susan far exceeded my expectations. I believe her background in psychotherapy really helped to facilitate a safe and healing environment. Since our session I have felt more ease and trust in my life and my spiritual connection with my "team in spirit" has deepened incredibly. If you feel called to do this life changing work I highly recommend Susan Wisehart!

I have been a patient of Dr Bank for over 20 years. I did not trust Psychiatrists initially, but…read moreher approach to listening to your problems, and how to best treat them medically and medicinally have been fantastic. I look at how I was when I started seeing her and how they are now is like night and day. Would highly recommend her to anyone needing help with mental health issues that may also require medicinal intervention (though not exclusively so).

Susan and I have been in the trenches together with my mental health over the past ten years…read more Through her medical wizardry, she has brought me back from the brink of suicide and insanity on multiple occasions. I'm a graduate of Northwestern University and was distraught over my outcomes with other psychiatrists. I felt like I didn't suffer through that school to be on disability. Susan is a breath of fresh air. While she isn't in-network with any insurance company, her prices are reasonable (she's worth every penny), and she will work with your insurance on things like getting your prescriptions covered, provide you with documentation if you have out-of-network coverage, and fill out any sort of job-related paperwork that may be needed. I think it's saying something that she keeps her patient population functioning so well that they can continue to see her, even in the rough times. Unlike so many other psychiatrists, to the best of my knowledge Susan doesn't have patients in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, or regularly in an inpatient setting. We're all contributing members of society and she keeps us that way. As psych patients, I believe that's the most we can ask for: to be indistinguishable from people without mental illness. Susan ensures just that. If there's one thing you should spend a little extra on, it's your health. Take my word for it. Make your mental health a priority with Susan Bank. You'll be happy you did!

READ this Review in FULL. Respectfully, thank you…read more Violations of patients civil rights; disregard ADA reasonable accommodation requests. If your loved one is here, the nursing staff WILL put their physical health at risk, waiving away all physical symptoms and depicting them entirely as mental illness. The only good staff there are Andrea, and the Patient Advocate, Albert. Some of the doctors and social workers are good, but find a different facility entirely. Especially if you have any Autism Spectrum Disorders, they are NOT educated in patients care with autism conditions. They will violate your civil rights if you are not informed about your needs and legally protected rights. The rest of the staff are nearly mediocre to outright DANGEROUS to patient's health. Especially Alex who communicated to staff that a Reasonable Accommodation request and High Blood Pressure should be deemed Violence and Non compliance. Before the automatic response from CBH is posted with platitudes of how this isn't commiserate with their standard of care and tells me to contact wecare@chicagobh.com as a sacrine acknowledgement for my concerns, know too that I intend to file grievances with the State and the Joint Commission for the sheer level of disregard for patients rights and the lack of corrective actions demonstrated by the repeated complaints listed on this Google review site. CBH is very obviously NOT taking these and others concerns seriously. UPDATE: I have submitted a complaint to wecare@chicagobh.com. If you are at all committed to making changes you will institute the suggestions I placed in that email which include providing ALL further patients with a copy of the ADA and Rehabilitation Act and posting this on ALL inpatient FLOORS so everyone is well aware of their legally protected rights. And your staff doesn't disregard Verbal reasonable accommodation requests in violation of the ADA. Especially considering that you refuse patients pens and pencils. Probably so they cannot express themselves in a professional manner that is acknowledged by your facility and you can dismiss their Verbal self advocacy efforts. Also, they DISCHARGE you with OTHER patients records in violation of HIPAA.. yeah, you just earned my state department complaint. Update 2: The nurses will chart other patients medical information, names, and patient histories in your medical chart leading to improper diagnostic accuracy and administration of dangerous medical treatments. I have opened an investigation into this hospital for medical negligence. Nurse Vanessa and Dr. Bergren will put your wellbeing at risk instead of verifying that they have correct information for the patient. Know Your Rights! Know the law. Dangerous facility and dangerous medical practice. Patients beware. Know your rights. 45 CFR §164.526; 45 CFR § 164.526(d)(2); Illinois Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act (MHDDCA) 740 ILCS 110/1; 740 ILCS 110/4; 740 ILCS 110/4B. Section 4(b) explicitly states that when requested in writing by an indigent recipient, the provider must furnish one copy of the records at no charge. This includes delivery to the recipient directly or to an authorized advocacy organization.

But the guy that wrote the other review doesn't know what he's talking about. This clinic doesn't treat patients with suboxone like the other guy says. They DONT keep you at a low dose.. they start you at a low dose and you can ask them to go up as many times as you need. They just don't want to give you a bigger dose than you need.

My health is a mess because I have waited so long. They do not offer the services that they say they do! I am devastated. I feel as though I have been victimized again, by Family Services of the North Shore. Clearly, my wellbeing is unimportant to them.
