I honestly would never recommend this doctor's office to anybody. For starters, I received in the mail from my insurance company that two separate claims were denied due to the charges this office was trying to charge me. I got three different charges, totaling the remaining bill of over $200+ for an initial appointment. They took blood work as well, and that totalled a remaining balance of $200+ as well. So all in total for one visit, no chance would or will I be paying that $400. For the record, for everyone reading this, and I’m sure the doctors office doesn’t know this, but a new bill was passed stating that ALL pricing is to be made transparrent prior to the appointment… So goodluck getting that from me. Furthermore, one of the two medications that was prescribed from the doctor, I had not taken before. I was prescribed two medications, one that I took prior and another one the doctor recommended to start taking. I started getting really bad headaches, so I called to communicate that with the doctor, but he never reached back to me, but instead had his front office staff call me back to tell me to stop taking that medication... I've never taken the new one they recommended before either, but she told me to go pick up the other one. I expressed my concern to the front desk lady, the symptoms that I was experiencing, but she shrugged it off like it was nothing. Also, they sent my prescriptions to two separate Jewel-Osco's, one in the city of Chicago and another one in the suburbs where I requested it to be sent (How do you mix that up like really, that’s just pure laziness and not being aware of what you’re doing at work). They also lied to me saying that they could not write out prescriptions for 90 days, which is a flat out lie because my previous doctor and my new one that I saw after this appointment (who is awesome by the way and flat out said asked why in the heck was i prescribed the two medications this doctor prescribed me…) that they can do it no problem. So they are out for your money not about helping you. And then when it came time for my follow-up appointment (I wasn’t planning on going), but they called me to confirm and they booked me for Schaumburg? It's like I did not go to Schaumburg for my first appointment and I had it written down from the lady herself (her hand writing lol) the appointment date and time. I did not feel comfortable going back in there and I do not know how much they were going to charge me and I do not trust this doctor as he did not follow up with communicate with me to see how I was doing with my headaches. Thankfully I went to another doctor who is able to treat me and see that the matter was more serious than what the front desk lady made it out to be and if the doctor just called me back to talk with me and show that he actually did care, then I would go back. Stay away from this office, really it's not worth it.

Dr. Thakkar is the best! I was seeing many specialists about several health concerns. They wanted to put me on all sorts of medications. Dr. Thakkar took the time to go through my records and pointed out that the concerns might caused by gluten. I went gluten free and sure enough it fixed everything.
