In search of Chicago connection

This just in from my sister Mary (a nurse, still on duty at Oschner Hospital); I'll do my best, but is there anyone else out there who wants to try to locate this relative?
 
I have three of the cutest little old ladies here who were rescued today from a flooded house. These sisters (last name Waters, how ironic) were carried by boat from their flooded home and are to be evacuated from the city tomorrow morning. Their only relative is in Chicago, a Dr. Sharon Smith. They think she lives on State Street. I cannot find an address on Google, and I am anxious to let this person know their aunts are alright. They have no means of communicating with her, and they have no other information. Can you use your super sleuth ability and see what you can find out? Thanks!!!

S. Anne,
In case you haven't been successful yet, I suggest calling the Chicago Police Department and let them know the whole story. They probably can get a supervisor at Verizon, or the local telephone company, to contact the person if there's an unlisted/unpublished telephone number. A telephone company supervisor can place such a call in extenuating circumstances and can provide a message, e.g. "Your Aunts in New Orleans are at ..."

I knew a Dr. Sharon Smith in Burlington, Wisconsin, about 100 miles north of Chicago. She did family practice there.

Anne: Dr. Smith has been located in a Chicago suburb and is making plans to bring "the Golden Girls" to be with her. Thanks to the Medical Staff offices of Mt. Sinai in Chicago and Advocate Suburban Hospital in Flossmoor, Il.---Mary
