WARNING!!!!! Dr. Shafeeq Bader is an ABSOLUTE HACK!!!! There are no words to express the horror…read moreI've gone through having gone to this dentist. Coming into the New Year was hell as Dr. Bader attempted to give me a crown that I NEVER needed. This man drilled through my tooth haphazardly leaving material from the existing filling and dental putty. The temporary crown he put on BROKE TWICE, within 48 hrs, the second within 24 hrs. Both of those visits were horrible and the incompetence of himself and dental assistant were on full display as they took 4 different impressions of my tooth on the first visit and 3 on the second visit. When the temp crown broke for a second time I decided to go to my former competent dentist who was out of network for my insurance. This means within 8 days my tooth was worked on 3x leaving me in an immense amount of pain as the nerve endings had been exposed to so much trauma. Dr. Bader did return my money however the composite fillings he gave me in October of 2024 are in need of repair, just 6 months later, the fillings he convinced me I needed to be replaced, my previous fillings were fine. His incompetence is next level, the difference between the composite filling and my tooth is super obvious and I cannot chew on one side of my mouth. I have never had issues like this until visiting Dr. Bader. If you are reading this, please save yourself pain, misery, money, and time. The reviews are not accurate as he offers an incentive for 5 star reviews. I have no idea what my insurance is going to do about this tooth as it was just treated 6 months ago and it didn't even need to be. FIND ANOTHER DENTIST!!!! Visited my dentist 5/2/25 and he is again baffled as to why my mercury fillings were removed, turns out I have a really high nerve on the tooth I'm experiencing pain and he would have never touched and can't touch it now as it may cause constant pain for years. Also he did in between fillings and I have new X-Rays show no decay between my teeth. And the cleaning this office did in October was no where near a professional dental cleaning like the one I just had a few days ago. I curse the day I came across this dentist. I truly believe that Dr. Bader tells patients that they need things to get money from our insurance. It is my belief that they are committing insurance fraud.

I had to write a review after the treatment that my mother received yesterday by this dentist and…read morehis staff. My mother had not been to the dentist in over 20 years out of fear. Recently, I got fed up and scheduled an appointment and made her go. She has dental insurance and still didn't take advantage of it. Anyway, were about 15 minutes late(my mother was slower than normal because she was probably scared) and I thought they were going to cancel her appointment. However, they graciously accepted her and she completed the paperwork. The dentist and his staff explained the necessary treatment, which wasn't as bad as I expected. She took Xrays and they began the deep cleaning on her bottom quadrants the same day. I was impressed. The price was very reasonable. My mother has been so excited since we left yesterday. She was impressed with the dentist's bedside manner. She also complimented the staff on their friendliness. Thank you Dr. Bader and....My mother can't wait until her next appointment in two weeks!!!!

I never thought I'd be writing this, but I wanted to share what happened during my time as a…read morepatient here. I was originally a patient when Dr. Daisy was there. I had two extractions with her and then started an implant process with Dr. Patel in 2022/2023 after Dr. Daisy left. Over almost three years, I went through three different attempts at getting a crown, and each time seemed more painful than the last. As time went on, I felt like I was bothering them whenever I called them about the pain or mentioned that the implant felt loose. Between the second and third crown attempt, I got a second opinion from another dentist who told me the crown was loose and suggested I go back to let them know. When I returned and mentioned this, I was told it was normal to "feel" that way. It wasn't until I explained that another dentist had confirmed it that they removed the crown and said they'd send it back to the lab. After over a year of this, I honestly started questioning whether I was imagining the pain. The third crown attempt became loose the very next day after it was placed. During my final appointment, Dr. Patel explained that she could bury the implant or I could find an oral surgeon on my own or she could recommend one, to have it removed, as she couldn't take it out herself, despite being the one who had put it in. I decided to seek another opinion and eventually saw an oral surgeon who referred me to a prosthodontist. The prosthodontist confirmed that something was genuinely wrong - the implant hadn't integrated properly, which explained my constant pain. He explained that if I didn't have it removed, I risked serious complications like infection. I found an oral surgeon who removed the implant, which I had to pay for myself. Now I'm recovering from that surgery and, because the process took so long, I need additional corrective treatment. This has put me in debt with more procedures ahead of me. The financial stress on top of the physical pain has been really challenging. What's been hardest is that I put my complete trust in this practice.  The ongoing pain was emotionally draining, and feeling like my concerns weren't being taken seriously made everything worse. I've also had some administrative issues - I actually had to ask for a refund, which really should have been obvious given the failed treatment, and I still haven't received anything back. Email replies take days and days for responses.  My membership also hasn't been canceled and my payment information is still in their system, which adds to my financial concerns. This reflects my personal experience at this practice. Looking back, I wish I had made a different choice about where to have my implant done.

Last time I stepped foot in there I was told I needed a cavity filled which turned into a root canal bc they dug in too deep and hit my nerve.

After that experience, I found a new dentist who informed me that I had loads of bacteria under my gums and lots of plaque and identified other underlying conditions that were never mentioned here. Unfortunately, this place does the bare minimum with teeth cleaning and def take advantage of your health insurance by doing rapid cavity filling that might def need a second opinion.

I am a dental assistant (they did not know), so I have experience with pricing and quality of…read moreservice. If you do not have Medicaid don't go here. This is best for Medicaid patients. This is a corporate office that has a list ranging from approx. $4k-$9k for braces (out of pocket and with insurance). Based off how they feel they will price you (Mild Moderate Severe). Pricing is not unique or individualize per case/patient. I have great dental health and simply inquired about getting braces to close a gap. The doctor proposes treatment for what they feel like needs to be aesthetically corrected and as a patient it is very important that you express what you want. To be quoted $7000 and not to be confident in the work is crazy. There was a lot of, "I can't promise you straighter teeth" or " I don't know how it would end up in the long run" is a sign you should get a 2nd or 3rd opinion elsewhere. I think with a large investment like braces, your orthodontist should be confident in improvements. In my case, I don't need braces, I just wanted them for cosmetic reasons. I do appreciate their willingness to explain treatment plans but $7000 for METAL braces on a mild case is insane. They advertise less than $200 a month payment but you're ultimately coming out of a lot. The assistants did great xrays, were quick and friendly. The doctor was friendly as well, but the value of service doesn't match the price. $7000 was inclusive of xrays, records, maintenance appointments and 1 retainer. There is no room for negotiation, no cash discounts. If you have private insurance or paying out of pocket you would be better off going to a more upscale clinic because the pricing would be the same with a more luxurious experience. I was told pricing is the same at all locations , this experience was at the Pilsen location on Cermak.
