Since our move, I've been looking for a new pediatrician closer to home. I chose this office in the interim because my 12 year old son needed a physical exam for an upcoming procedure. Setting his initial appointment here was easy and they were scheduling only a week out - so my expectations were high upon visiting this location. When my son and I arrived, the front desk staff were cordial and the medical assistant was pleasant. They have two separate waiting areas, one for the sick and the other for healthy patients. Both areas were organized and the healthy area had plenty of toys, books and a TV. After waiting in the healthy area we got placed in a clean room and my sons vitals were taken. My expectations quickly waned as Dr. Mir enters the room and stands far in the corner with her assistant. She didn't approach me for a handshake, I didn't get a smile - her expressions were completely cold. She never reviewed my sons medical history - I still had the new patient paperwork on my lap. Nevertheless, she started her interrogation based on her own assumptions. When she didn't like my polite yet accurate answer I provided about my family, she interrupted me and continued to talk over me, for the remainder of the visit. She then went on to explain the choices she made for her family, which were not pertinent to the visit. After much talk about nothing, she finally begins the physical exam on my son. Her attitude moves from cold to passive-aggressive. Dr. Mir starts to point out my sons physical flaws, in a malicious fashion. Every. Single. One. After she humiliates him, she then asks me does he have low self-esteem. Well, he does now since you just made an issue, out of a non-issue. After embarrassing my boy, Dr. Mir gives a diagnosis - without lab work and recommends surgery (she's not a surgeon by the way) because "kids can be mean" - No Dr. Mir, you're mean! My son has never had an issue nor has he ever been humiliated about his weight, neither by his peers or the medical community, until I made the terrible mistake of bringing him to Fox River Pediatrics. I strongly suggest you skip this office. Dr. Mir is incompassionate at best and has no qualms about humiliating 12 year old boys. read more

We were able to get an appointment within a week of calling. The staff was very nice. They helped me track down my son's medical records/shot history. The office was clean and well maintained. They had a separate waiting room with a tv, toys and books to keep children busy. The doctor was in fast. She answered all our questions and was very kind. I will be transferring my other children here as well. Such a pleasant experience. read more

My insurance registered my children to this office. I dont have a vehicle right now, so this was the closest location to take then to. My son is turning to in April. I called to make an appt, and after "screening" me, they said it wasnt a good fit? I asked them to please reconsider, because I'm a single mom, and it's really expensive to take an uber to another doctor, the closest one that takes my insurance is 40 mins away. And they said no, and that I can take my son to the health department for shots. They seem very heartless, I've never been turned down from a doctor, especially after having a 5 minute conversation. read more

Love Dr. Mir. It's always quick to get in, the rest of the staff are so helpful and friendly and make an effort to make my children's visit a good experience for them. Dr. Mir is very competent, likes to edge on the safer side for any potential health issue or concern. She's very thorough, I have no doubt in my mind my child's health is being cared for and treated in the best way possible. I've never felt unheard by her or like she was not doing everything she possibly could for my children when they get sick. Based on the previous person's review dr. Mir treated her professionally especially considering choosing not to vaccinate your children is not only extremely dangerous to their own health, but also to all other children around. Any comments you took as "not respecting your choices" is really just medical FACTS. It's a fact that not vaccinating endangers your child and everyone else. She provided you with accurate medical advice, sorry it didn't align with your opinions? Anyways love Dr Mir, great pediatrician! read more
