In patients' words
"The absolute worst! Not once, not twice, but 3 times they dropped the ball on my mother... running their patients in circles and then treating them like garbage."
— Oak Street Health patient review (Birdeye)"Be prepared for a long wait—at least an hour before your name is called. They routinely schedule 15–20 patients for the same time slot but only manage to see 2–3 at a time."
— Family Medicine Specialists patient review (Birdeye)"It's difficult to find a Dr. that truly listens and actually cares. But Dr Zahedi does both! She actually makes sure all your needs are addressed."
