Solvera Health

Today is World Kindness Day, and I want to honor some of the kindest people I know. Solvera Health is a non-profit health system that serves the community. The Caplis’, a family of restaurant owners, started Solvera Health in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Based out of Peoria, IL, Caplis Enterprises has branched out into healthcare with the intention of improving access to quality healthcare. The people of Solvera Health in the Carbondale, IL, location have been fantastic. I have been a patient of Dr. Christopher J. Hanson for over three years, and he is excellent at his job. Not only is he professional and empathetic, but he is also efficient. He takes enough time to find out what is going on with me without making me feel rushed, but he also ensures that he is mindful of his other patients' time. The other vital Solvera Health Carbondale team members are Brandy, Valerie, Shaunda, Tammy, Megan, Stephanie, Kaylyn, Renee, Whitney, and Kiara. I lovingly refer to them as the “Solvera Super Women” because they are constantly performing in high-pressure situations where medical care is becoming increasingly difficult to get. Their patient list and workload are growing, but the Solvera Super Women have a smile on their faces and call me by name whenever they see me or hear my voice on the phone. Everyone in this office is warm, friendly, and professional. The Solvera Health Carbondale office provides primary care services, on-site laboratory work, and medical referrals. Dr. Hanson is connected with the local SIH Memorial Hospital, so he also has access to that system. The office is just off Reed Station Parkway on the third floor of a large building. There is plenty of accessible parking, wheelchairs at the entrance, and an elevator. The lobby, restrooms, waiting room, and patient rooms are always clean and welcoming. If you are looking for a primary care doctor who truly cares about your health and has a great team that supports you, I highly recommend the kind people at Solvera Health Carbondale. When you go by, tell them Kindra Speech sent ya!

Solvera staff does all possible to be helpful. The clinic has a lot of equipment for which one must usually make arrangements with an other facility after a doctor's visit and the pharmacy is available at all times Solvera is open. The parking is also far more convenient than that at other medical facilities At which I am seen.

you can get an appointment the same day you call. They're very friendly and actually care about you. They helped me when no other health care providers wouldn't. I like the convenience of everything you need done is all in one facility. they even have their own pharmacy
