the guy at the front was very helpful i had questions before scheduling and he was very clear and empathetic. I did not know how to set up an appointment and he helped me step by step to get scheduled
My children came in for visits and the office was very accommodating. I really appreciated Sergio up front with helping me schedule and get insurances sorted for my kids. I can't wait to come in myself!
I have to say my first impression of this place was just amazing! I've been to numerous dental offices in Skokie and this by far has had the most friendliest and caring staff. The layout is very clean and up to date. Sergio at the front desk greets you and helps get you checked in. Gaby the DA took her time with getting my x-rays done and made the process quick and efficient. Oh, it gets better. Next, I get the opportunity to experience an oral exam from a Certified Hygienist. Yidnek did an incredible job with advising me of my oral issues and advising me on what the best treatment plan may be. Very knowledgeable on the specifics of my oral issues.
So once that was done, then the wonderful Dr. Mena walks in and greets me with such a friendly and genuine smile. She was very eager in describing the process knowing that she would put my fears to rest. I felt very confident in knowing that I was in the best hands in Skokie, Illinois. Once everything was done, then the pricing begins. Kaitlyn Helbig, Operations Manager, super friendly and helpful as well. She guided me through payment options they had available and made it very simple and stress free. Very affordable for the quality that you receive here. I will be updating as I continue to attend a few more appointments. If I could give them 10 stars I would.
