Progressive Care For Women has operated for more than twenty years as an obstetrics and gynecology practice in downtown Chicago, and it is affiliated with Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Michele Hakimian, MD, is one of its co-founders. Alongside gynecologic care, the practice runs a medical spa, so people can book both kinds of visit under one roof.
The office is open Monday through Thursday from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm and Friday from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm, and it is closed on weekends. New patients phone 312-573-3700 to book, while online booking is also available and existing patients use the patient portal. The practice says it avoids overbooking, aims to keep waits short and returns calls promptly. Major insurance plans are accepted, and coverage questions are handled by phone. A payment policy, HIPAA notice and patient portal are published on the site.
Gynecology covers contraception, IUD insertion, preconception planning, infertility, abnormal bleeding, abnormal Pap follow-up, menopause, PCOS, fibroids, vaginal infections, breast health, genetic testing and in-office ultrasound. Early pregnancy visits begin with a full first-visit evaluation that includes a physical and pelvic exam, urine and blood tests, and screening for sexually transmitted infections that could affect a baby, and care can include a referral to an obstetrician for prenatal and delivery care. Preconception exams are recommended at least three months before trying to conceive. Fibroid care ranges from imaging and in-office diagnostic options to medication, procedures that block blood flow to the fibroid, and surgical removal.
The medical spa offers Botox for frown lines, crow's feet and forehead lines. The practice says results begin within 24 to 48 hours and typically last around four months, with a typical plan of three injections for crow's feet and five for forehead and frown lines. Injections are performed by certified physicians and a nurse practitioner. CoolSculpting is a noninvasive body contouring treatment that uses cold to target fat cells in specific areas. The practice notes that it is not a weight loss treatment and reduces fat in a treated area by approximately 20 to 25 percent.
Other medical spa options include IPL for pigmentation and surface veins, and laser hair removal using a combined laser and radiofrequency system, with sessions of about 15 to 30 minutes that usually need several visits. A one-on-one consultation comes before laser hair removal, and a numbing cream is available on request. Sublative skin rejuvenation delivers heat into the dermis to support collagen and elastin. Facials are offered for anti-aging, calming and acne-clearing goals, sclerotherapy treats varicose and spider veins, and eyebrow tinting is available.
Takes a proactive, preventive approach to care and places weight on patient education, so people can make informed choices about their health and treatments.
