“Very unique "one man show" practice where Dr. Sanchez does it all and is the only one in the office for patient appointments. He tries to carefully schedule appointments and arrival times so nobody else is in the waiting area--this was the case for my recent appointment. He explained that this setup allows him to spend more one-on-one time with patients than the typical doctor. I appreciated the attention he paid to what I had to say, the clear and careful way he explained things, and how thorough his examination approach was. Highly recommended doctor!”

About Dr. Francisco Sanchez

New office safety precautions
Message from the office of Dr. Francisco Sanchez
"I am lengthening patient appointments to 30 or 60 minutes. This allows me the time to prepare patient spaces. Longer appointments help control patient flow, so that no more than one patient is in the clinic at any one time. The only exception is when a patient is accompanied by ONLY ONE member of the SAME household. Patients are asked to arrive within 5min of their appointment time, to help control patient traffic in the office. If you arrive more than 5min prior to your appointment time, please wait in your car and call the office. You will then be notified when you may enter the office"
If you have cough, fever or shortness of breath...recent international travel or close contact with an international traveller in the past 14 days...or contact with someone with known or suspected coronavirus (CoVID-19) PLEASE STAY HOME and instead book an appointment for a Video Consult!!! ALL PATIENTS - PLEASE NOTE THE NEW OFFICE ADDRESS! Chicago Family Wellness is NOT a network provider for marketplace insurance plans! If in doubt, patients should CHECK WITH THEIR INSURANCE! Patients are STRONGLY encouraged to verify network status with their insurance PRIOR to their appointments! I am a firm believer in patient education. I want to educate patients so they can be active participants in their health care. My goal is to prevent health problems or address them early before they become serious, so that my patients stay healthy. My practice includes medical acupuncture, a treatment modality that has been found to be useful in addressing many health concerns. By offering these services, I hope to offer a more complete array of treatment options for my patients. Routine lab testing is done on-site, including blood-typing. I also offer facial aesthetic treatments with Botox.
