"Loveeeee This Clinic Every Since My Daughter Was Born She Has Been Coming Here I Even Switched My Oldest Her And When I Had My Third Child He Goes Here As Well. Sometimes On Certain Days The Wait Is Long But Is Worth It. 10/10 Recommended"

"I been bringing my daughter to this clinic since 3 days old and I must say I like the way the staff treats you and the doctors as well! I would definitely recommend this clinic for your newborns babies. Today I was 25 minutes late and they still took my appointment. I am so glad I come here.."

"As a first time mother, Dr Pankaj has helped me tremendously in how to care for my new born baby girl. She is so knowledgeable that every time I have a question or doubt, she has the right answer and her delivery is incredibly loving, caring and understanding. The ladies in her practice as very nice and loving to baby girl. Highly recommend her! we are so lucky to have her as our baby's pediatrician and that she is in the Oak Forest area."

"**Disclaimer: This is lengthy, but informative! I absolutely LOVE the doctors at this practice. Dr. Thakkar was my pediatrician from birth, and I was floored to find out that she was still in practice when I began to have my own children. I also like the fact that her daughter has now joined the practice, simply because she is able provide a fresh and modern take to everything. Both doctors always have a FANTASTIC attitude, and I never feel like I have to hassle them about the needs of my kids (7yo and 16mo). Since I'm not big on medicating children for every little thing, they are typically good about helping me find alternative solutions, and I never feel pressure for my decisions. They are able to provide me with a medically necessary avenue, but since they are also parents, they are great about giving me their opinion from a personal view if I ask them, and I LOVE that!! I will say that as long as I have been taking my kids there, which is almost 8 years now, I have never had a problem with the physicians. Their staff on the other hand.... The nurses are great, and have been with the practice since my 7yo was a newborn. They always remember our family, and have become like family to us as well. The front desk/reception staff could use a little revamping. Even though they are nice, at times they definitely come across as rude. I have also had my fair share of headaches trying to get them to take care of administrative functions like communicating pre-authorizations for medications, and referrals to the insurance companies. All in all, if you want your kids to be cared for in a professional and caring way, I would, and will continue to recommend this practice!"
