Re: UPDATE: need good doc in NW suburbs of Chicago or downtown Chicago

[Guest guest]

Ana was seen today by Dr. Vicardi and he and his entire staff were

wonderful!

Thankfully, Ana will not need a STARband but I'm so glad we visited

so that I can let go of my concerns!

The scan was very very quick and it was over before we knew it.

Dr. Vicardi and the PT we saw were very informative, very receptive

and very down to earth! I was really impressed!

HOWEVER - no one informed me that the scan itself is $300 that must

be paid UP FRONT as the receptionist, Maggie, claimed that no

insurance companies pay for the scan. Now, I talked to several

people in the office several times and this was NEVER mentioned! I

was so ticked when Maggie told me this upon check in that I told Dr.

Vicardi. He was very apologetic and said he really didn't care when

I paid for the scan that he wanted to get a picture of Ana's head and

that was all that was important!

Please email me if you have any questions about Dr. Vicardi - I'd be

happy to help! ereagan9@...

Good luck mommies and thank you SO much for your support!
