"From start to finish, it felt like a disorganized facade, with the main focus appearing to be on achieving a flawless 5-star Google Review rating rather than providing quality healthcare. The push for positive reviews starts the moment you walk in, as if your satisfaction was more important for their online image than addressing actual health concerns. It was disheartening to realize that the emphasis was on securing positive feedback rather than offering genuine support for headache-related issues.The patient satisfaction survey you received post-visit only reinforced your suspicions. The questions seemed carefully crafted to elicit positive responses, lacking depth and authenticity. It's unsettling to think that the center prioritizes the appearance of excellence over addressing real patient needs. Furthermore, the relentless push for Botox treatment during a consultation is a major red flag. It felt more like a sales pitch than a medical discussion aimed at finding the most suitable ...
treatment for headaches. If you're seeking excellent care and want to be treated as more than just a number, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Jodi, the APN in Naperville provides a refreshing alternative. She genuinely prioritizes patient care over superficial online ratings, and her approach reflects a commitment to addressing the root of health issues rather than pushing Botox procedures. I encourage others to seek out healthcare professionals like Jodi in Naperville who prioritize patient well-being over superficial measures of success. Providers needs to learn to pay attention, not cut people off while they're attempting to explain something. Also, if you're the owner, you should know all of your systems, not just some. "

"I have suffered headaches and chronic migraine my entire life to no avail. I've always felt like an experiment who didn't matter if I did not react appropriately to the agendas of previous doctors. Most who focused on pushing brand name medications and/or experimental studies for their research instead of finding personalized treatment that actually help me improve the quality of my life. Then I met Dr. Torphy and for the first time in my adult life I was able to take control of my life and migraine treatment. I've had many doctors and specialists before Dr. Torphy. None that were as kind and dedicated to treating me as an individual. I always look forward to my visits with Dr. Torphy. They are not just checking in to charge my insurance and refill prescriptions. We are always looking at ways to be proactive with reducing my migraine days as much as possible. He is always so kind and patient. Prior to Dr. Torphy, I was unable to plan very far in advance. 5 years later and my life has dramatically ...
improved. My headaches and migraines are still around, however the difference is unbelievably. A standard migraine would typically last 24-48 hours. I've had lots of calling off and schedule changes for work. These days, even at their worst, my migraines rarely last more than a few hours with medication. Versus the ones last 2 days and another 2 days recovering. I no longer take a daily preventative. My focus and concentration has improved from the constant fog I lived with due to the migraines, aura, or side effects of medications. I am able to focus on long term plans. I've gotten my passport and my drivers license, all things that seemed insignificant at one point. I've been able to actually enjoy a VACATION and look forward to a ROAD TRIP migraine free! I CAN NOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT DR. TORPHY! "
