Here we go again! My hubby just started a new job...therefore, a new insurance company! Our current doctors, both family and pediatrician, do not accept the HMO plan we are being enrolled in. We are in dire need of a GREAT pediatrician first of all...the family doctor for my hubby and I can take a backseat for now. :) Help us...PLEASE! We are in Oak Lawn, but we've never been afraid to travel farther for good care...Orland or Tinley is just as close for us! (P.S. Are there any good/bad reviews for Dr. Denice Cook or Dr. Lisa Wright? They are both out of Tinley Park.)

What can I do next?

Dr. Waffa Hanna (18210 S LaGrange Rd Ste 109
Tinley Park, IL 60477
###-###-####) is great. She has her main practice in Tinley right now, but she use to have one in Oak Lawn as well. Her old place in Oak Lawn was not sufficiate anymore so she left, but has told all her patients that she is looking for a place in Oak Lawn again. She is associated with Christ Hospital. My family will be moving north and we will have to change doctors b/c it would be to far for us to travel, but I am dredding it. We love her.

I know it's a little further, but I love love love our family doctor in Oak Park/River Forest. Dr. Susan Locke on Lake Street. I also live in Oak Lawn, but after searching high and low I ended up going with her. She's worth the drive for me. She's pretty laid back, does not like to prescribe medication/antibiotics unless it;s absolutely necessary and usually tries a natural approach first - something I was looking for in a doctor.
