My experience with Dr. Alshahrour started on a good note, but ended very badly. At first, he seemed very caring and knowledgeable about what he was doing regarding my prenatal visits. However, throughout the course of my pregnancy I went through special circumstances and have had to leave the country, but I came back at the last trimester of my pregnancy. He saw me again and everything was going okay, until I told him I needed to transfer to another ob/gyn because I had moved to another town and his hospital affiliations were not very convenient for me (I would have to drive abt 2 hours in traffic to get to the hospital he delivers at). So although it was nothing personal against him, and it was seriously just a choice based on whichever nearby hospital was available for me, he took it personally I think. Anyways, long story short, just a week before I transferred from his clinic, I had developed a severe rash and itching, which got me very concerned. He ordered some blood tests for me and this is where things got bad. First, although these were critical tests, they took a veryyy long time to come back (about 5 days) and on top of that, none of his nurses called me back to tell me my tests were abnormal. It was actually me who kept calling them daily about my results. Second, when the results finally came back, the nurse put me on the phone with the Doc and he began to explain them, but when I told him about my transfer, he quickly changed his tone and refused to discuss anything further with me. I kept inquiring and asking him about my condition and whether it was risky and if I should be concerned and he refused to discuss anything with me and seriously just told me to go see someone else. His behavior was completely unethical and he had no right refusing to discuss the tests he made on me or to tell me that my results were abnormal. I quickly went over to his clinic and grabbed my tests and took them to the hospital, and turns out I have cholestatis putting my pregnancy at risk. I am currently scheduled to be induced earlier than my due date and I am very thankful that I was able to catch this and see a real professional. Until my delivery I will be worried, and its no thanks to Dr. Alshahrour who took a very long time to give me back my results and who actually didnt even tell me about the risk I am in. A doctor who cares more about money than a human life is definitely not a doctor to be trusted. He is completely unworthy of his title, unethical and money greedy. Edit (Update after delivery): In response to the centers response to my review, let me warn other patients and tell them that first of all, in my case, tests shouldnt take that long especially when theres a risk. The hospital I transferred to had to re-do all the tests they made (which came back in 48 hours) and it turns out I was also positive for B-Strep so they knew to give me antibiotics during my delivery, because guess what?! The medical records the center gave me DID NOT SHOW whether I was negative or positive for the culture test even though one of the assistants told me over the phone I tested negative. Thank God the ob/gyn who saw me at the hospital decided to repeat them all. And again, like I said, I knew I had circumstances and I knew it wasnt advisable to switch doctors far in my pregnancy (my situation was tough and I had special circumstances) but that STILL didnt give the doctor the right not to discuss the results with me. After all, he was who did the tests, the least he could have done was just explain my results, but he refused. Actions like that speak a lot about a person. If thats the kind of care you trust, go ahead. In any case, I am glad I made the switch, I was induced 2 weeks earlier than my due date because of my condition, and today I have a healthy baby girl all thanks to God and of course doctors who really cared about my pregnancy.

This is the staff at Womens Healthcare center of chicago responding to the recent review done by Don Doon, first of all, the womens healthcare center wish the best to all patients. Second, we always advice patients not to switch at the end of pregnancy due to the risk of that nature. Ms Dan Doon was given the best care that can be given to anyone. Her care process needed some tests, that test required seven day for results to come back. she was notified that the test took 7+ days. Any patient has the right to change provider but when the patient changes provider it becomes the responsibility of the new provider to continue the care and it is not adviced for the safety of the patient and the pregnancy that patient jump between doctors. Ms Dan Doon notified us that she changed her provider and she was given a copy of her records. Our practice has been involved in multiple medical and humanitarian missions to the needy. For the patients who have no insurance, it charges the lowest rate in the city of Chicago. Our practice has been given excellent reviews from patients and it will continue to provide the best care to our patients.
