We've been patients at this pediatric office for 13 years and have trusted them with our daughter's…read morecare throughout her childhood. Unfortunately, our recent experience left us extremely disappointed. I called ahead to let the office know we were running a few minutes late as a courtesy. When we arrived--within what I understood to be the standard 15-minute grace period--we were told they would not be seeing us. I asked if they could make an exception, given our long-standing relationship and the fact that we did call ahead, but was told very firmly, "We only see patients who arrive on time." What was most surprising was how unprofessional the interaction felt. The receptionist told us we could sit in the lobby, but there was no guarantee when or if they'd be able to fit us in. She also stated that the decision came directly from the head doctor of the practice which was especially disappointing after over a decade of care. We understand that schedules are tight and policies are necessary, but there was no flexibility, compassion, or consideration shown--not even a reasonable explanation that we called ahead of time. It's unfortunate to be treated this way after so many years, and we're now re-evaluating whether this is the kind of practice we want to continue trusting with our child's healthcare.

The office staff can be variable as they tend to be more rotation of them. The Libertyville and Barrington office staff has been consistently nice. The Lake Forest staff well, it depends on who you get. However, the staff was never rude enough for me to consider leaving the practice.

After being rescheduled because of this doctors valuable needs to reschedule on a whim, we were sent away for being one minute late over their ten minute buffer.

I cannot begin to count how many times my time hadn't mattered for doctors and just another example of entitlement. No regard for my work schedule or time. If you don't mind an egotistical man, Friedmans the one for you.

Advice: Avoid if possible!…read more Dr. Hozman was the in house pediatrician at the time of my son's birth in 2018. As we had not selected one yet, we went with the in house at Advocate Condell Medical Center. As a pediatrician, no complaints. General expectations were standard and the in room visits for my son were typical and brief. Friendly enough, answered any questions we had (didn't have any as normal birth and this was our second son). She saw my son Asher the 16th and 17th. My son was born on the 16th. It wasn't until the bill came afterwards that the issues started. The receptionist/operations lady at her office was rude and extremely unhelpful. After receiving charges for 3 days of her time listed, 11/16, 11/17, 11/18, I called in to dispute. My wife was discharged the 17th, so I was surprised to see charges on the 18th. Who would've been seen on the 18th if we were discharged on the 17th? As I was asking clarifying questions regarding this 18th charge, the lady I spoke with became condescending and belligerent. This conversation ended shortly after as she suggested to have Dr. Hozman return a call to me (None). Two days later, I've received a bill for 3 days, this time adjusted to 11/15, 11/16, 11/17. Funny, Asher was born the 16th. Who did she see the 15th? Our discharge papers from Condell lists the 17th. Advice: Avoid. This has been an unorganized practice at best and a complete displeasure.
