COPD in Chicago, IL

I can’t say enough good things about Health Direction Medical Center! I have been coming here for almost 2 years and they’ve helped me problem solve health issues, when other physicians have overlooked them. They take their time, they listen, and you feel like you are genuinely being taken care of. I see Megha (PA-C) and Dr Ramirez and couldn’t be happier with their care. The rest of the staff is lovely as well, including Lupita, Marbella, Carmen and Satya. Thank you so much ladies. You’re the best!!!
