Dr. Dirico was great! He was very understanding of my situation and was very flexible with scheduling. He has extensive knowledge of my foot issue and he was able to get me treated in a way that felt really comfortable to me. He is very understanding of situations and personal preferences. There was an experimental drug that was found to help my situation and he guided me through the process of fully understanding it and it’s side effects. He showed me multiple clinical studies and gave me his own opinion but above all he let my opinion be the deciding factor. That being said, he wasn’t a pill

Without a doubt, Dr. DiRico has been my best doctor experience and I cannot say enough good things about him and his staff!
Diagnosis
I had an accident which required me to go to urgent care where I was diagnosed with a sprain and it was suggested that I see a specialist within the next week for a follow up. After checking out local reviews, I chose Dr. DiRico and was lucky enough to get an appointment with him the next day. His office staff was extremely friendly, the facilities were clean, and I was taken back to the patient room quickly. After talking through the accident, my symptoms from

One of the worst experiences of my life. Doctor has no idea what she is doing. Just seemed un knowledgeable about my particular situation. Did not make me feel like I was being taken care of but rather taken advantage of. No transparency on anything. No thorough care. Just seems like they want to take as much money from you as possible. Very pushy and like I said no transparency. Absolutely Disgusting. I go to a different clinic and they explain to me the charge for everything and why a certain thing is necessary. They really take the time there to make sure I have what I need and everyone remembers

AVOID! I went to see Dr. Dean Dirico because of the overwhelming positive reviews only to find out it's a waste of time and money. He looked at my X-ray that was taken in his office, then pointed out that there was a broken bone and it may NEVER heal. I wanted a second opinion and went to see an orthopedic at Northwestern hospital, the doctor there told me my bone was NOT broken! All it took was wearing some $10 inserts that I could easily purchase on Amazon instead of what Dr. Dean Dirico was trying to sell me that cost $500. It's horrifying that he's not competent to give accurate diagnosis just

Had a not-so-great experience with a podiatrist and really wanted to do research and find a good doctor who would be able to solve my problem. I figured that there was no way so many positive online reviews could be wrong, so I made an appointment with Dr. Dirico. From the moment I stepped into the office, I knew he was the right choice. He listened, took his time, and helped plan a course of treatment. Office is clean and there is ample parking. Would highly recommend.

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Dirico and his team of assistants. From the moment I showed up with my grade 2 sprained ankle, I felt like I was at a more than adequate establishment. Dr. Dirico doesn’t hesitate to answer any questions you might have, and takes his time to make sure that your mind is at ease by the end of your visit. If you value good bed-side manor, medical care, and an all around good environment, this is the place to be.

My husband and I had both been feeling foot pain and we scheduled an appointment with Dr. DiRico. Their office was open later in the evenings, which we really appreciated so we could go after work. He and his staff were friendly, but also to the point. The appointment was totally focused on finding our feet issues, finding a solution and getting us out of the office. Which I really appreciated. Overall would recommend the Advanced FootCare Center.
