The Chicago Forensics Center

I came here about 8 months ago to get a revision of my IEP (Individual Evaluation Progress Report) since I have a learning disability and needed to get it revised to a more current one since I had my last one in 2001 to get special accommodations for school. I initially had one done by a doctor in Northfield that was for a legal proceeding that involved my grandmother and the social worker involved in the case (who’s name won’t be mentioned because this person is a bag of **** for a human being) who arranged it had initially told me to tell the doctor and his assistant to send her the bill until it culminated into a merry go round of phone calls to get the billing dealt with until she told me I had to take care of the $ 990.00 testing bill. God knows I didn’t have a grand to pull out of my butt to up and pay for something that I wasn’t initially responsible for.
Please watch yourself with some social workers this is the game they pull to get things done on their end and you might get screwed by them so you want to keep any and all emails and document any text messages and phone calls that have taken place if you lodge a complaint against the social worker and the agency they work for. This is where I used my good intuition and called the Chicago Forensics Center since I had called around to different places and most of them wanted as much as $ 1200 for the testing and a copy of the report. I had tried to go back to the original place my very first IEP was done when I was diagnosed with a learning disability more than 30 years ago which was the University of Illinois, but at the time I had time constraints to get this done and over to my school.
They screened me pretty fast and got me assigned to someone within a month which is typical after cases are reviewed according to need and services. I was assigned to an intern named Cori Harley who was great and she was the one who did my testing and as of this posting she will be leaving the facility since she’s graduating at the end of the summer. Anyone who hires her will be getting a well trained graduate. She made me feel very comfortable and not weird like half the shrinks I had dealt with all my life who just made me feel very awkward and uncomfortable. They work on a sliding scale basis and you will have to provide some documentation to determine the fee for services.
It’s worth it for you to do if you need a revision of documentation if you have a previous diagnosis of being learning disabled or a first time diagnosis if you’re an adult who wasn’t screened as a child for a learning disability. I would recommend this place to anyone who needs services like this and want to be in a warm and caring, and non-​judgmental environment. The place is very well maintained and washrooms are clean and kept up. The process can be long, but you’ll get through it pretty quick it’s best to do it when you’re not working so you don’t have to schedule multiple sessions to complete the testing process.
