Testimonials

Our daughter loves going to Speech and OT here. Love the staff, specifically Alyse for OT and Sarah for speech therapy. They're so patient with our kiddo all the while keeping her on task and we love the growth we've seen already after just a few months. Veronica also has helped us navigate insurance and has been really helpful.

Son with Fragile X Syndrome attended summer camp at 4 years old a couple years ago. He was very disregulated. He had lots of behaviors. He barely got through Pre-K at a CPS school that school year. Rose and her team of experts worked real hard with our son and by the end of the 6 weeks of camp he had made so much progress we decided to enroll him in their new Therapeutic School. Rose was kind enough to attend our son’s Diagnostic Evaluation for Autism since I couldn’t find someone else to help me watch him while I spoke with the evaluator. Rose guided us through the ABA process. Once ABA took off, during COVID, we saw even more progress both at home and at school!!!!!! The staff at CPTWC is amazing. I especially love how they find the motivating factors and incorporate them into our sons care plan! As a Registered Nurse, working in the ED, I am extremely satisfied with the professionalism and the efficiency of all the therapists. Since we have started at CPTWC two other of my sons’ cousins also now attend. If you want to see results, look no further. The Behavior therapists at CPTWC work tirelessly to ensure the plans are appropriate and realistic! I couldn’t be more happier that I discovered this hidden gem! Today, our son is almost 7 years old, talking, potty trained and socially engaged! He loves to sing”Days of the Week”, “Months of the Year” among other songs! I also love that in school, they do similar activities that typical schools have such as spirit week and book fairs and my favorite, Art Shows! I love the different art projects the children learn to make and then they showcase their work during the Art Show! As a special needs parent I appreciate those little activities!

I wholeheartedly recommend CPTWC. This place is all heart. My families' experience over the last 5 years has been wonderful, and my children have flourished with the support that CPTWC provides. Their therapists and services are excellent, and the inclusive way they approach their work is second to none.

We have been working with Natalie K. now for about 7 months. She is the absolute best PT I could have asked for!!! I was so worried when my son wasn’t crawling yet at 10 months old and she had him moving in no time! Same thing with his walking. He also absolutely adores her. She is so good with babies and toddlers! I look forward to going to our weekly session because I know how productive it will be every time and I walk out of our sessions in such a good mood. I can’t recommend a center or therapist more!!

My son is seen for physical (Melissa) and occupational (Shannon) therapy and we have seen great progress in both areas. He loves working with Shannon and Melissa! I appreciated how flexible both his therapists were in switching between virtual and in-person during COVID. Veronica in the billing department was so helpful in sorting out issues with our insurance company, thank you! Highly recommend CPTWC!

We had the MOST positive experience here, particularly with Erin for speech therapy and Alex for physical therapy. Our therapists were patient, compassionate, and always willing to share summaries of visits and ways we could practice with our little one between sessions. Can't recommend Erin and Alex any more highly!

Our son was referred for Early intervention at 12 months, with concerns of speech, feeding , and fine motor delays. Front office was able to get us scheduled right away to begin services. Joanna (OT) and Lauren (speech) were amazing therapists to have on his team. By the time he was 2 and started school his teachers were surprised to hear that he had received therapy. At his first parent teacher conference we were so pleased to hear and see all his progress. His teachers note he loves puzzles, coloring, eating all the snacks, & chatting with all his peers. Thank you Lauren and Joanna for all your help.

The absolute best place to bring your child for any form of therapy. Our daughter went here for over two years for speech, physical and occupational therapy. They helped us through her diagnosis of Williams Syndrome and provided the tools we needed to excel her abilities. Every therapist she had was patient, kind and knowledgable. We will miss this clinic very much!

Our kid has been working with Natalie Kahn who is so amazing. He loves her classes and has made so much progress in various aspects of gross motor skills. The weekly sessions with Natalie is his favorite time during a week.

We have been going here for the past year for our daughter! I can’t rave enough!!!!! Amazing therapist, receptionist staff is always helpful and the finance team is on it! Our therapist Natalie has been a very important and intricate part of our child’s mobility. Her expertise, passion, dedication to our family and all the children of the practice is commendable! Thank you Natalie, we would be lost with out you!!!!

I love this place they helped my daughter a whole lot while she was receiving early intervention. I thank all the therapist for their help

We are blessed we found this center for our son to recieve ABA,speech and ocupational therapy. There are many places that gives ABA for kids under the Autism spectrum, but not all are professional ,unfortunately. This is a place were they truly care. Starting from the owner, the front desk, all staff showing so much care about our family. The therapist are amazing! The BCBA is so professional and she is really on top of everything to help our son and overall our family in all aspects, school, home, etc. We have parenting training and we are always informed about programs and everything that is regarding methods and follow ups. My son has been around 7 months and he has progress in many areas. Plus they have a really nice clinic with social group that has helped a lot to my son. The gym is so nice and my son loves it. I can't say enough GREAT things about this center. UPDATE: Still being AWESOME in everything, thanks for keep caring of all kids .

Schedule your appointment now! You will not be disappointed. My seven month old had a freak accident which resulted in her needing physical and occupational therapy. I saw this place online and was able to schedule and be seen fairly quickly. Alyse and Natalie are absolutely amazing. They are both so caring, nurturing, informative, and they give us fun homework! 😉 they treat their patients and their families as if they were their own. When my daughter accomplishes something new I don’t know who gets more excited me or them! I love this place and their staff and would highly recommend them!

As new parents to a premature baby there are questions or concerns that a pediatrician can’t always answer. The amazing feeding specialists, Christi and Lauren, helped us out tremendously. They were both very knowledgeable and great communicators. Their feedback made us feel comfortable and settled our worries. Highly recommend

Did our therapy with Amanda and Christi and had a great experience. Staff was all very friendly and accommodating.

Amanda was awesome and an amazing resource for our daughter. She went above and beyond to provide the best care and attention during the care we received from her over a 3 month period. The facility is clean, comfortable and ample toys and entertainment for the kids. Would recommend 100% to other families.

I had difficulty finding a place that would see my 15 month old for a pretty specific need... Chicago Pediatric was able to get us in quickly with no problem! We love working with our SLP Allie; she's so knowledgeable and makes the sessions really fun for my daughter. Weve been able to make progress after just a few weeks! Would definitely recommend. Their facility is super clean, kid-friendly with all the proper COVID protocols.

Our Caleb absolutely loves his time with Anthony. He’s come so far with his speech and language skills. Caleb thanks you and so do we!

We started here back in the spring with Ms. Danya. As a health care professional, I was nervous about the process but Danya was just amazing (probably an understatement 😉) Quickly it became evident he needed casting for his diagnosis and Ms. Rose was informative, empathetic and accommodating throughout this process. We also had the pleasure of seeing OT, Ms. Kirsten who helped our son leaps and bounds with sensory, managing emotions and fine motor skills. Lately, we have been able to see Ms. Natalie for PT who seamlessly stepped in when Danya had to leave for a bit! Through the logistics of this process, of course we have had questions and concerns; and ANY time I have had questions - whether it be billing or the goals/purpose of exercises or even the amount of time for each session - the therapist made me feel comfortable about asking and finding a solution. We travel 25-35 minutes to go to THIS therapy center and couldn't be happier about our decision to make this commitment. It truly is a team approach which is a must when it comes to our child!

This place is truly a gem. Fantastic, clean and beautiful environment. I walked in with a 2 year old and was confused, nervous and even a bit scared and walked out confident, informed and prepared. The therapists here are BEYOND knowledgeable. They were ready for anything and everything my little one and our family had been struggling with and then taught him/us to engage and enjoy without the stress. I adore his therapists who became a family to him/us and still care so deeply for his well-being and progress even now almost 3 years later. If your child needs assistance this is the place. Read below if you would like to know more about specific therapists. To name some of our favorites at CPTW here goes; Jessica our BCBA with the PLANs blew my mind she set goals for our son but also for the family and taught us how to own our behaviors and have a different type of communication, which has brought us true peace and happiness. Yaeji is a sweet, yet fierce and artistic therapist who worked tirelessly to assist and exceed goals. Cristian was not only the greatest buddy but the most knowledgeable and caring ABA he set realistic boundaries that had our little one learning how to keep calm and minimized episodes. Lauren our ST worked magic and our little one speaks with beautiful fluidity and clarity that gets him through the day where he never could. Alyse our OT utilized every skill possible to get him ready to tackle school/life like a champ moving and strengthening his body, learning to hold and use utensils, writing and sitting with strength. My gratitude for CPTW and their tireless efforts is enormous. Our family recommends this business with full confidence knowing you will be in good hands.

This place has become our family. We are grateful for the amazing love and expertise they have shared with us.

I wish I can give CPTWC a million stars. My son has been seeing receiving therapies at this clinic for several years and he’s made leaps of progress. His speech therapist, Heather, is the most incredible ST. She’s patient and incredible at what she does. Ale, my sons behavioral therapist, is equally as incredible. She’s been working with my son and he just adores her. Lauren, our BCBA is the most caring person you could ever meet. She truly cares about each and every child at the clinic. She’s helped me in more ways than I can ever thank her for. The owners Rose and Pat are also the nicest ever!

We had such a wonderful experience with Natalie Berra at Chicago Pediatric Therapy & Wellness center. She saw both of our infant twin sons, and was so amazing with them. She was extremely caring, informative, and patient with the boys and us as we learned the exercises. She always made sure to write out notes and send extremely detailed follow ups, which made it easy for us to continue the exercises at home. The progress our boys made during their time with Natalie was tremendous, and we are so thankful for our experience with her. We could not recommend her more!

I have been bringing our 8 month old to physical therapy, with Natalie, for 5 months. We have learned so much from her. She takes the time to explain what she is working on and how it impacts our child through all stages of development. She listens and shows genuine care for our child and our entire family. She has a passion for her work, and it is evident in then enthusiasm she shows as our child meets goals and milestones. I’m not sure what we would have done without Natalie’s support!

We LOVE Natalie! She has been my daughter’s PT since my daughter was 4 months old and we have seen such amazing progress! Natalie knows exactly what to do to make kids feel comfortable with her and my daughter loves “playing” with Natalie as a result! I can’t recommend Natalie enough! She’s amazingly thorough and always explains everything to me in great detail!

CPTWC has been an absolute haven for both my boys. The front office is always so welcoming & helpful with my 100 questions, especially Ms. Cory! Our 4mo old baby required Physical Therapy due to Torticollis, and Ms. Amanda has been such a joy to work with. My son fell in love from day one, and she was able to help him achieve his goals, throughout his Doc Band journey. Our 2.5yr old toddler was referred here by his pediatrician for Occupational Therapy, and Ms. Kirsten has been the most positive influence! He absolutely adores her, and has made such incredible progress. He has since started seeing Ms. Erin for Speech Therapy, which has also been such a positive and fun experience for him! Now we begin his ABA journey with Ms. Natalia and we already know he is in SUCH good hands with his whole caring team. We are SO grateful to have found this wellness center, and would be lost without everyone there. Highly recommend for all the children in your life!

We are absolutely thankful to Chicago Pediatric for getting our little champion's speech on track. Miss Melissa is amazing, our son loves her! They really know what they are doing and do it in a fun way for the kids. I was worried it would be a struggle to get our son to go but instead he was always so excited and so that was not an issue. We did have to wait a while to get a spot but it was worth the wait!

Natalie as a PT and Alyse as an OT are phenomenal. Incredibly knowledgeable yet flexible and always striving to teach my daughter to meet her goals and those coming. They have been available to our family and our daughter's teachers to optimize her care and her life full-circle. They are insightful, kind, and patient beyond compare. My daughter loves them both dearly and looks forward to her time playing with them. She has so much fun with them. She has improved so much in such a short time, and I can't imagine how we could be where we are without them. I couldn't envision a better PT or OT, and I can't believe how lucky we are to have found them. Besides this, the center seems full of this caliber of therapists and people. They aim to be flexible and during times of rare covering/substitutions, they have not missed a beat, and my daughter has continued to gain from their expertise. Truly wonderful, talented people and a cohesive team.

I have been bringing my daughter to Chicago Pediatric Therapy for 1 year for speech therapy. Ms Melissa our speech therapist has helped my daughter grow immensely. When we started I could not understand my daughter at 3 years old. Now she is talking in full sentences and telling me about her day! Ms. Melissa goes above and beyond. She collaborated with me and my daughters teacher. I’m grateful for her and my daughter loves her! Highly recommend.

Our baby goes to Rose 2x per week and she has been the most caring, proactive, compassionate and knowledgeable PT we could have asked for. Our little guy was born almost 10 weeks premature and she has done wonders for him. She always goes above and beyond for not only our baby, but for our family. She’s incredible with kids and she has given us so many tools to help bridge the gap between his adjusted/actual age. We feel so fortunate to work with Rose and would highly recommend her and her team.
