I've been going to this facility for 10 years with Dr Chaudri as my surgeon. Back in high school he…read morewas recommended to me from an old doctor my dad had and told us he was the best in the area and is the "golden standard", and i feel this still stands! I had an ACL reconstruction back then from a basketball injury(2011), and (since I'm highly active) I've re-torn my ACL recently again, twice- July 2019, Jan 2020(was doing something i shouldn't have been). Each time I've had to have surgery, I've had the MRI and surgery within 2 weeks of finding out that it was re-torn along with different options including surgical and non surgical. I've opted for surgery each time since I personally am highly active. The facility itself is well built, very clean, and well maintained. The staff is great, very friendly-from the ladies(Sara) at the front desk all the way to the nurses in back! If i ever have an issue i can call and get in the office quickly to get things straightened out. Dr. Chaudri is great! He's down to Earth, has excellent bedside manner, extremely knowledgeable, and tells you exactly what's wrong and gets straight to the point. He answers all questions you ask(if you ask any since he already explains things.) On a occasion or two I've also have had Dr Durudogan read me results etc. he was also very well mannered, very knowledgeable, and has good bedside manner as well. I HIGHLY recommend this location and these doctors especially Dr Chaudri.

Dr. Richard Lim is one of the finest Orthopedic Spine Surgeons in the Country, many surgeons did…read morenot want to operate on me because of the complicated nature of my case. I had a giant herniated disk with severe central canal stenosis along with complete effacement of the Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) around the nerve roots. Redundant nerve roots (RNRs) and the beginnings of Cauda Equina Syndrome and Arachnoiditis. I had terrifying pain in the hip, buttocks, groin and leg. Sound Complicated? That is because it was and the risk of surgery was high. Dr. Lim took on my case and performed an extremely successful Posterior Spinal Fusion with Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) using a Titanium artificial disk also known as a Intervertebral Cage and a facetectomy on L2/L3 with a very Complex Decompression of Cauda Equina and Bilateral L1/L2 nerve roots and Hip Bone Marrow Aspiration with an Allograft Bone Graft plus 2 Bilateral foraminotomies along with an annulotomy. This was all done using a 3D computer-assisted stereotactic navigation system. I mention all this to demonstrate why even world-renowned Neuro Surgeons declined to take my case. Right after surgery 100 percent of my pre-surgical pain in the hip, buttocks, groin and leg was gone. At 3 months out I was walking 3 miles and at 4 months I was hiking in the forest on hilly and challenging terrain and had a zero-pain score. Also, his P.A. Michael Meeker is fantastic as is the entire staff at Midwest Orthopedic Consultants. So if you need simpler or very complex Lumbar or Cervical Spine surgery, please contact Dr. Richard Lim.

0 stars not available. I could make this a long story but I won't. Here is what you need to know…read more Dr. Lim did what was to be a simple surgery on my lower back. He left pieces inside of me and closed me up. Those pieces dug into my sciatic nerve for 7 1/2 weeks causing the most excruciating pain I have ever had in my life. He ran out of the surgery and jumped in his car so I couldn't ask him why I was in more pain when I woke up than when I went in. Then he wouldn't take any calls from me. Then when I was able to go to his office, he wouldn't come out of the back to talk to me. The front desk said they were told to tell me he was in meetings and was not going to see me. It took the CEO of Midwest Orthopedics to force him to meet with me. The arrogant, pompous ass that he is kept saying nothing was wrong even after new MRI's showed the debris and me screaming in pain. The surgeon from Rush who corrected the botched surgery took photos that he gave to me of what he had to remove that was digging into my sciatic nerve. He said he normally wouldn't do that but that I needed to save these for the attorneys. In all my life I have never met a worse doctor / surgeon. It's bad enough to ruin somebody's back but then to be so arrogant to never admit the mistake and get it fixed. Anybody who would let him cut into you would have to be insane. Find ANYBODY else!

If you're going to see Dr Primus you have chosen well. He is a very knowledgeable, friendly and…read morekind doctor. He listens to your concerns with care. With Dr Primus & team please bring up all the issues you have in order for treatment to be successful. I came for my knees I believe I slipped and fell when it icy out onto my knees, maybe 4-5 years ago but I didn't break anything. My knees finally had it and started to buckle after exercising last spring. Dr Primus performed surgery on the left knee which gave me the most problems. The right started feel the effects of overuse so I received a steroid injection. My surgery went well I was able to maneuver on my own without crutches within 5 weeks. Trust when I tell you that the recovery is painful but you'll get better in time. Trust the process with keeping up with appointments PT and doing exercises at home. PT team is all that, always attentive to working my knees using equipment and body calisthenics. You don't wait for them normally give precise appointments so you're not rushed but again let them know how you are feeling and all issues. To care for yourself after will aid you in recovery. A 9.5 out of 10 for me but be prepared to wait for Dr Primus. He is very skilled, attentive and trying to help out everyone. For the most part people are willing to wait to wait for him. Bring your patience when choosing Dr Primus, you will wait some times but he is so worth it!!! Before coming to CSO I previously went to a center whom I shall NOT name and they were not attentive. They played with my health and pain, that was a NO go for me, I took my injuries, my money and found Dr Primus. But please if a center/facility is NOT showing you any care for your health, exit stage left!! Thank you so much Dr Primus, PT team, jr assistants and administration for all of your help!

I had a sudden and extremely painful shoulder issue that needed to be diagnosed/treated and,…read morethankfully, the team was able to see me right away. I was extremely impressed with Dr. McCahill and his team as they were extremely knowledgeable, personable, and very supportive throughout the entire process. They really took the time to explain how and why this situation happens along with the impact it has on so many connected areas. I really enjoyed the educational breakdown and vast knowledge they had of the situation. I was both surprised and relived to learn that my issue was actually a pinched nerve and not a muscle tear so after being treated and given a great plan of action, I should be back in action fairly soon. I just wanted to say thanks again for all of their help and while nobody wants to be injured again, I definitely know where to go in the future! : ) Sincerely, Fernando R.

Most unprofessionally childish bizarre staff ever. Never in…read moremy 33 years of life have I experienced what just occurred trying to walk into this place during "open hours". Here for a professional sporting event and one of our players pinched a nerve in his back. I called twice and left a message 20-30mins prior to our arrival (2pm Friday) no answer.. -Where it gets weird...As my teammate and I get to the door, the sign says we're open and friendly etc. But the door was locked. We noticed a trifold block on top of the reception desk. which a women was behind. She peaked and saw us standing at the door AND INSTANTLY HIDES BEHIND THE DESK... we knock, no response. We go around to the side and look through the window and she is HIDING UNDER THE DESK. I can't make this up. on all fours like she was in a tornado drill. Who does that? at this point we were over this place anyways but decided to sit there at the window laughing at how unprofessionally childish the situation was. she finally noticed we were looking thru the window and makes eye contact I said "we can see you" and she just yells "we're closed" so we go back to the front door, knock again and she pulls a closed sign from behind the desk that wasn't even visible. we asked if she could just give us a recommendation and she told us to "google it" This Lady was the same lady on the first picture with blonde hair standing with the Dr. in the white long sleeve. Good luck with this place lol. bizarre behavior like that makes me wonder what other sketchy things go on at this practice

At 4:43 the nurse said btw if you don't pee in 8 hrs go to the ER. So 3 hrs later we had our first of 6 ER visits in 3 weeks. Apparently his nerve block shots damaged the nerves and shut down the bladder. He has had a Foley catheter since then. His quality of life has been forever changed. The doctor has never called to see how he is or why he never returned for his post op. I thought we picked a great doctor. Now I just feel guilt for sending my husband to Branavacki. Please research your surgeon better than we did. And Do Not go to Branavacki!

Thought I'd leave an updated review on this orthopaedic...let's start with the hips: new hip…read more12/18/25 hurts worse than the hip that still needs to be replaced!!! My hip felt better before the replacement and I never had a hip flexor problem. The pain is horrible and there are days driving (going from brake to gas pedal) hurts so bad. Other days I can barely lift that leg to dress. I was told by my new Doctor that I need to fix that hip (ok Dr Branovacki you told me my new hip will last 30 years and change my life!!! Ha) with the replacement before the hip that wasn't replaced due to the pain. Why wait you say?? My knee he replaced (NEVER REPLACE JOINTS IN 4 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER) on 5/7/26 needs to come and get replaced. Yup knee revision in 11 months!!! I cannot take the daily pain and pain all night!! Ok Dr Branovacki...you said my knee will last 30 years and my quality of life will improve. Well my quality of life has drastically declined. It has been a horrific year of pain. New Doctor did tests and the bottom piece is loose & the spacer too large (6 months after replacement!) no amount of physical therapy will help the knee. Multiple doctors to get it to bend and straighten. It has been a horrible year?? DO NOT USE Dr Branovacki or Midwest Ortho in Orland or oak lawn. It's packed with people, long waits and no care at all for patients. See as many as you can pack in (but don't expect an appointment for more than 15 minutes) and move them out. Dr Branovacki told me & my husband I "expect too much...I have over 1,000 patients" we'll start taking care of them!!!! Once he sees you ....passed off to one of his 3 PA's and forget talking to him after surgery or a PA....only a nurse who complains about all the work she has!!!! If you end up in the hospital with blood clots (extensive through leg with knee and traveled to lungs) because of a nurse who does not share pictures that were sent to her...Dr won't check on you. None of them will. Please do not use Dr Branovacki for hips or knee!!!!!!

His office has an inviting feel to it from the moment you walk in the door, and once you meet Dr. Bob, you'll feel like you've know him for years! He is an excellent listener to his patients and takes his time when he is with you. You will never feel rushed out of his office, as you might have experienced with other Dr.'s offices.

About 2 years ago, I was thrilled to have found Dr Principe who runs this practice. I was…read moredesperate to find an integrative physician not afraid to think outside the mainstream medical box. However, in my desperation to have a doctor that was both integrative and open-minded, I've time and time again overlooked the rudeness and disorganization of the people answering the phone - particularly Dina the office manager (who runs the front desk). This woman should be no where near customers or have any contact with the public. Adam at the front desk (an intern) seems to have taken after Dina. I guess rudeness is contagious there, in my opinion. I've overlooked Dina being rude to people calling in asking questions when I was in the waiting room, on multiple occasions. I actually heard her answer the phone, on one occasion with Dr Principe sitting next to her listening, answer the phone to a person with cancer looking to become a patient. She was SO rude to that person. Dr Principe said NOTHING. And talk about privacy concerns! Well just recently, I found myself on the other end of that rudeness. When I tried to escalate the issue past Dina, she told me that I can NEVER talk to the doctor via phone and he will NOT return my phone call. I am an existing patient and they cancelled my appointment the same day as my appointment. Dina left me only 1 message two hours prior to my appointment to cancel it for that day because they got 'too' busy. I got the message on my phone after I parked in their lot to walk into the appointment. I called the next morning to reschedule only to be told they had to call me back. I didn't hear back, so I called today, 2 days later, to ask if I was scheduled for next week. Again, I was told by Adam that they would have to call me back. About 5 hours later I got a voicemail from the nurse (Jacqui) saying that they couldn't refill my meds until they see me and I should call back to talk to the front desk to make an appointment (and around and around we go!). She obviously had no idea that they were the ones who cancelled my appointment on me earlier in the week. When I called back and spoke to Adam at the front desk to tell him there is major confusion, I could sense, yet again, by his tone that he could care less to be working there let alone care about medical run-around they are giving me. Talking to them is like talking to a brick wall. So he responds that he can 'squeeze' me in in about 2 weeks! I said that was unacceptable and did he understand that I am out of medication and they are the ones who have giving me the run-around after having cancelled the appointment on me! It didn't sound like he cared and mid sentence handed the phone to Dina at the front desk. She did not even let me finish my sentence before she hung up on me. I called back to speak to the Doctor and she hung up on me again. I called back to speak to the nurse, Jacquie, and Adam did put me through to her. She ended up being apologetic, and understanding....but too little too late. She also said that she confirmed with Dr Principe that he had not been given the message by his staff (no thanks to Dina and Adam!) that I had had an appointment that week that they had cancelled on me! So much for Adam being able to relay a message properly. And this guy is going to medical school soon? Scary! I just wanted to share my experiences in case anyone was considering this practice. Too disorganized and many unhappy workers there. This has been going on since I have been a patient there and it is totally unacceptable. I highly recommend you look at other practices for your health needs. No one deserves to be treated like this. The even more sad part is, that it is evident to me that Dr Principe knows how Dina treats patients, yet he allows it to continue. In my opinion, that woman needs to be fired. I am sure she is costing his practice money. Just sad.
