Sunflower Medical Group – Antioch Hills

While I try NOT to visit this place very often, when I do, I want to have a good experience.
I have been going to Sunflower Medical Group for the past 6 years. My doctor is very good and I really like his PA. She is excellent and very attentive. I appreciate that upon check-​in, the staff is efficient and friendly and never give me the ‘ew your sick’ look. They have me verify all of my personal information is correct, confirm I am with the same insurance company, and ask for the right amount for my co-​pay.
One of the things I like most of all about this group is they are conscience of their time management. Few things make me more mad than being kept waiting in a doctor’s office after my appointment time. I have not had one experience like this from this group and it will keep me coming back.
Lastly, they have harnessed technology in their favor by providing
and an app by the same name. With FollowMyHealth Universal Health Record account, you can securely access your health information online and communicate with your healthcare providers. FollowMyHealth will store your health record securely and keep it ready for you to access conveniently from your home computer, laptop or smartphone. And, if you are a patient at multiple FollowMyHealth member physician offices, clinics or healthcare facilities, they combine all of your records into your single Universal Health Record account, to make management of your healthcare as easy as possible!

At one time, my whole family went to Sunflower Medical Group. I was, until recently, the lone member who still gave them a chance. They have been nasty to us all. I went to go see Dr. Bruce most recently. During this 6 mos-​year experience she has been really sweet to me when we’re face to face but extremely rude over the internet or phone. There was a portal where patients and doctors could converse. Dr. Bruce told me I had reached my maximum question limit about a particular issue and had her office manager snub me, saying I had to make another appointment in order to discuss my matter further! Like paying a toll for her expertise… On another occasion, I found lumps in my breasts she told me their scheduler would call me back. They never did! Three weeks later, I am fighting Dr. Bruce for an order so I can make my own mammogram appointment!
This is just my most recent experience. I have been accosted by a nurse while she’s taking my blood and years ago a Nurse Practitioner misdiagnosed one of my most major health problems at a stage where much of the later damage could have been prevented!
WHAT IS WITH THIS PLACE? I honestly think they are just too used to being rude to the elderly that when anyone who is under the age of 60 shows up, they don’t know how to switch gears.

This office is not for the cool and hip. In fact, if you are 44 or younger, you are probably the youngest patient in here during the day. A least that’s the conclusion I have reached. Sunflower Medical is conveniently located at 75^th and Antioch, so I can zip down the street from either work or home within five to seven minutes for an appointment. And that brings me to my favorite part: getting an appointment. I don’t think I have ever had to wait an entire day to get a sick appointment here. Call at 9 am, and they can usually see me within a couple of hours. I have been seeing my primary care physician since I was ten, and he has been in this office for at least fifteen years. Also, I never wait more than five or ten minutes after checking in.
