Open Advanced MRI

Very helpful and courteous staff and technologist. They went beyond the call of duty to get me an appointment quickly and work with my Dr to get the order for my MRI. Thank you! Note: new name of the business is Progressive MRI. Same location.

They got me in the same day I called for an appointment. Caring, patient, wonderful staff! Clean facility. My one and only complaint is, they need music pumping through the earphones.

First off, this particular business isn’t here anymore. They still exist, but the only location is in Deer Park or something. Out by Arlington Heights.
However…I had a great experience.
I’m on Medicaid, and my Medicaid doc dropped the ball hard when I needed an MRI for a shoulder injury. My chiropractor, who doesn’t even take Medicaid, found these guys for me.
They dealt with Medicaid and such, had my appointment booked for as soon as they got the ok from them. No lines, no waiting AT ALL. They must schedule their appointments so no client has to see any other, because both times I was in there they were ready and waiting for me and no one else was about. The tech was super communicative, giving me a heads up on how long each scan would be, and counting down for me so I knew how much longer I had to be still.
She handed me a CD of my scans less than a minute after they were done, and the radiologist had my results faxed to my chiro within the hour.
THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD RUN A CLINIC, Erie Family Health. Just sayin’. I wish these guys ran my GPs office.

Staff is great! The tech Lisa was wonderful. I am claustrophobic when it comes to MRI machines… even the open MRI machines. Last one I was in at another location I lasted two minutes and had to tell the tech to let me out. Lisa was wonderful and accommodating. She gave me some tips of what may help and she walked me through the whole procedure as it was going on. This is the place to go if you need an MRI.

First off, let me say that if I *never* have to go here again, that would be great, as it would mean I don’t have any more back or shoulder problems!
That being said, the staff and technicians here are top notch, and a very professional group. The MRI techs are really nice, and take the time to explain everything *before* they put you in the machine.
Highly recommended if you find yourself needing a pre-​surgery MRI. Let’s hope you don’t ever need to use them, though.
