Baukol should give some thought about asking others to post remarks for him especially one timers out of state - shows worry. You knew you messed everything up in my mouth causing me to have to go to an allergist due to sores in my inner cheeks, tongue and lips - sloppiness. Sometimes cost me $10 a pill and had to take every day for a week - and even ONE pill that cost $250 - I paid for it all.You asked for more money to make changes in the horrid work you did. I gave you a choice - go to court or $75,000 so I could have the work re-done (had already spent more than that). You didn't want a law suit and you didn't want another dentist see the mess in my mouth so you asked me to let you do the re-do. You, Margaret and I met to discuss your proposition and you agreed to allow my tape recorder (either that or a contract had to be drawn) You agreed for the recorder so there are two proof sources - Margaret and my tapes. You know you did not finish the re-do and tried to get me to do multiple things - you were still asking for more money from me. That was not part of our agreement. You showed more of your dishonesty with a tanner. You and Raoul back and forth - forth and back. You called me and said it was ready. When I went in I was told it was manufactured outside of the office but I knew that was untrue when I saw it and had it in my mouth. As I was leaving I noticed you were pulling one of your slipping out acts - had seen them before. This time Raoul told me the tanner was $1500. Now I knew why you slipped out. The tanner was worth between $125 and $200 but you usually asked for $250. I left the office to meet a friend across the street and me lunched and discussed the tanner. I called Raoul and told him I was bringing the tanner back. When I got there Raoul told me you had never intended to charge me for it. After that Raoul called me and told me I had to come in every week for an adjustment - another scam - a charge for every week for nothing that needed to be done - only a try to get weekly money because you already owed a $2800 crown... Always a game. Some time later I went in to get the printout of the tanner and the name of the company that made it. This time Raoul told me the tanner was made in the office and I saw a $350 charge on the paperwork - the paper did indicate it was not made outside of the office. This is just one of many things of this nature that happens in that office. Your tantrums became more frequent and worse and Margaret was not there any longer to help keep you in line. I refused to accept the things you wanted me to do that would cost me even more and was NOT part of our agreement on the re-do.You lied to the police saying I had come into the office for money. The only time I had asked for money was when you botched everything up in my mouth and I needed a re-do on the first work. YOU are the person who kept insisting for money. During your most recent tantrum you screamed I didn't pay you for the $1500. How many dentists should I call who make $1500 tanners in their offices? You two men assaulted a fragile female - first assault from him and then both of you pulling on my arms and my purse on my wrists at the same time while you were still screaming - and the first time I heard your profanity. I will say I was lucky Raoul took a step forward and prevented you from hitting me with your fists as it seemed you were headed for my face. I couldn't have protected myself against one man let alone two.. When we get to court I expect your 2 employees and the maybe girl to know not to perjure themselves. Lying under oath requires an intentional act of lying after a person has taken an oath or affirmation to tell the truth. The potential penalty for lying under oath generally includes a possible term of imprisonment. I was physically harmed and shaking all over - heart was pounding like it was going to pop out of my body. You both attacked a woman who had a recent surgery - Raoul knew that because I told him the previous week when I called. You already knew the other fragile problems for years. I'm going to ask to listen to my 911 calls. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Baukol for 3 years now & so far i've seen the good results of all his hard work.I've been consulting several dentist from other states as well regarding my gum problem but the issue was never resolved.It became worst like the swollen gums recurring every month plus the bleeding gums despite the conscientious and extensive procedures and consistent dental appointment that I have gone through with all the expensive dental bills attached to it...Then,I've heard about Dr. Baukol I've decided to fly Chicago to see him.He was so nice to even explain every bit of the detail of the problem and all the options that can be done with the issue and made sure I have a say on what is suppose to be done to me..The staff was very pleasant and attentive as well,they made me feel like I'm at home by keeping me comfortable and my needs being attended..As of the moment,I'm not anymore experiencing the swelling nor the gum bleeding.I wouldn't mind spending extra money for my fare going to Chicago to have my dental appointment because it way far outweighs the benefit that I got which is resolving my dental issues.Words can't express how truly thankful I am with Dr. Baukol and his staff...Please do continue doing the good job!More power! read more

I just started going to Dr. Baukol in October of 2018. After so many years of not going to the dentist, I was terrified to go but I had to because my condition and infection has gotten so bad that my husband made an appointment for me and made me go. I was so glad he did. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly and made to feel at ease. He understood my fear and experience and bad luck with previous dentists and he made me feel so comfortable and was not judgmental and I felt the same from the staff. That was one of my biggest fears, was that they would judge my condition. Best dentist I have ever been to hands down. Kasia, the dental hygienists is amazing and so sweet and was very careful with the cleanings. Kristen, Dr. Baukol's assistant is a gem. She's been so helpful and kind and made me feel like I was at home. Everyone has been amazing and they honestly saved my mouth! I have been telling all my family and friends about Dr. Baukol and the amazing work he has done for my husband and I. I highly recommend coming to see him, especially if you have anxiety and a fear of dentists! My husband and I both love Dr. Baukol and his team! read more

My husband and I have both been patients of Dr. Baukol for over 12 years. He and his team are highly professional and welcoming, our visits are always pleasant. They run on time, pay careful attention to detail, and their patients' comfort is truly their top priority. We have greatly appreciated their willingness to help navigate insurance questions when needed, and their reminder emails and texts ensure that I never forget about an appointment I'd made 6 months prior. He and his staff are all very positive people, they are encouraging and optimistic. After I visit I'm inspired to follow their pointers for keeping my teeth healthy since they will notice my good work then next time! I highly recommend Dr. Baukol, going to the dentist is literally fun when he is your dentist. read more

I was a little hesitant to go the dentist with our Covid-19 world, but have always taken good care of my teeth. Dr. Baukol and his staff made me very comfortable that they are adhering to all the safety guidelines and even doing more. I have been going there for 30 years and wouldn't be comfortable with anyone else working on me. I get the best cleanings I've ever had from the hygenist. Dr. Baukol's work has lasted and kept me from having any major problems as I've aged. The staff have been there for years and are trained and skilled and they have kept up with any new equipment and treatments over the years. I felt like I was at Northwestern only luckily didn't have to have surgery :-). This is the best dentist to go to and you can feel comfortable going even now! read more

As always, a wonderful experience...especially during these Covid times. Over the top with following all CDC Guidelines. Went in for my regular cleaning with Kasia. She explained to me all the precautionary steps they have taken to make sure the office is as safe as it can possibly be...from sanitizing your hands as soon as you walk in, to all staff double masking and changing clothes and keeping them within the office confines at the end of the day. And yes, they do have a washer/dryer on the premise. I really would not trust any other dentist with my teeth. Dr Baukol has taken me thru many big events with successes in all. When my friends say they dislike going to dentists appts, I say I love it! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Baukol for 8 years, and see the hygienist every 3 months ever since. I have high respect and high regard for Dr. Baukol and his staff. I strongly disagree with L.K and John's reviews: Dr. Baukol has been the most honest and compassionate person I have known. He is an active member of the old town community and well respected. L.K. DR. Baukol is as well respected by the chicago dental communities. Dr. Baukol never had temp employees and most of his staff has been there for awhile. Dr. Baukol always present his treatment plan and and respect his patients opinion. Sorry L.K. and John, you should be ashamed of yourselves. read more

His whole office was amazing. on a vacation to Chicago got a bad abscessed tooth. his office was close to my hotel, call and his receptionist was great, they worked me right in. Dr Baukol was very nice and very helpful. could not ask for a more helpful Doctor and office. they treated me very well. they set me up with an oral surgeon and even gave me direction on how to get there. I was totally helpless and at their mercy and they treated me with total respect and was very professional. Could not be happier with him. Very impressed. He is a hidden treasure in Chicago. thanks Stephen Bickers read more

I STRONGLY disagree with L.K. I myself and my family has been patients of Dr. Baukol for over 8 years. Dr. Baukol is a great dentist and well respected by the dental communities here, actually patients of his even travel from different cities and states just to see him. He helped me a lot on my TMJ issues, and always listened to my opinion with outmost respect ( alot of dentist never do that). He is very compassionate and understanding about costs and budgets. My wife and I will always be thankful for Dr. Baukol's expertise and his patient care. WE love you Doc. read more

Dr. Baukol does great work and his staff (especially Kasia and Rahul) are wonderful. Kasia is his dental hygienist and literally gives the best teeth cleaning I've ever had - no pain, no squirming, she even took time to to put some Vaseline on my lips because they were chapped. Rahul makes appointments easy to schedule and is always so friendly. I had some discoloration on my teeth from previous dental work and Dr. Baukol fixed me right up - I just wish I would have come to him sooner! read more

I actually look forward to going to Dr. Baukol-which I have been doing for 8 years. He explains everything he is going to do and why and he and his staff make the experience extremely comfortable.
