Liz,

 

We use Dr. ez at Comprehensive Clinical Services.  He is on

Highland Avenue in Lombard, across from Yorktown Mall.  Not really southern

suburbs, but easily accessible from major highways.  Dr. ez is very sart

and has a good bedside manner.  He is also Latino and serves this much

underserviced part of the mental health community.

Hi All,

Can anyone give me a name of a good psychiatrist in the southern  suburbs?  

I

live in Will county and would like to find a doctor close by for my son who has

autism.  He has been seeing a neurologist for many years and I would like to

see

what a psych doctor has to say about the type of meds he is on.

Thanks,

Liz

Thanks Margie,  It's amazing that no one else has recommended anyone.  I was

told by the pharmacist about a Doctor at Silver Cross Hospital but this is an

out patient program.  She at first, sounded like she could help me til I told

her my son is non-verbal.  Told me to go to the Univ of Illinois.  There has

to

be a doctor closer than that.  Thanks for the info.

Liz

My daughter goes to Dr. Najjar at the University of Illinois at Chicago and we

live in Plainfield.  She took over for Dr. Owley when he left there a few years

ago.  We travel there once a month or every other month since we could not

find

anyone closer that came recommended.  I don't care for the travel but she gets

good care.

You are welcome Liz.  My son is verbal but non-conversant.  But over the two

years we have been seeing Dr. ez they have developed a rapport.

My brother has had good services from Ron Wuest at the Institute for Personal

Development. He has an office in and a couple of other places. They

don't take Medicaid, though. My brother's issues tend to be more MI-ish than

DD-ish, if that makes any sense, but I know they work with a lot of people with

developmental disabilities.

My brother continues to do well. He is still unemployed and has adjusted his

routine to economize a bit, does some regular chores around the house (with

varying degrees of quality). He uses the little netbook we got him all the

time. Now I wish we'd gotten him something with a bigger screen, but at the

time was worried he'd get frustrated very quickly and just break it.

It's been said many times, but I don't post very often, so thank you to all

moderators and posters. I get the daily digest for this group and enjoy it very

much.
