I was very happy to find this office! I needed to have a root canal done on a front bottom tooth ,…read more and couldn't find a dentist and endodontist that could do it all in one appointment in my area. I was lucky to find Dr. Sokolik!!! He was able to take x-rays and make sure I had an infection in the tooth's root before we did the root canal. Then he recommended surgery and he was a very skilled and fast endodontist!!! I needed to have this surgery before I had a joint replacement and I am so happy I found doctor Sokolik!!! I am a big dentist chicken and he numbed me and I didn't feel anything. I have never been to this practice before. So, I totally understood that they had to take my payment for my surgery before they submitted it to insurance. The office staff and everyone promised to help follow up with me to make sure I get all my money back from my two insurances!

So besides all of the up selling the stitches they put in broke on the second day, then over3 months after service they sent me an invoice for over 10 dollars saying the insurance didn't cover everything. This is all after me paying out of pocket over 300 dollars. Stay away from this one! Crooks

I started coming to this office when Dr. Scalia retired. I have had to leave because the office…read moremanagement was so bad. If you go there, your bills will never be resolved. The office people were terrible and totally disorganized. I checked with them that everything was ok. I specifically asked. I even drove there on my lunch break from work to straighten out the bill and I hand delivered a check because a prior check had been lost. I had to cancel that check with my bank at my expense. Also, I have been gone for a year and just now got a bill that they are trying to bill me for a date from a year and a half ago. The billing and office organization has been what feels like a never-ending disaster. It.Just.Never.ENDS. with these people!!!

I went in for my first cleaning with the dental hygienist Joanna, and it had only been seven months since my last cleaning. Not only did Joanna make me feel completely embarrassed but she humiliated me in front of the whole office as she was cleaning my teeth and "teaching me house to brush" after asking me if I even brush my teeth daily. but took her to the end of the appointment after saying so many rude things for me to explain that my health has been very bad for her to understand what was happening in my mouth. Over the past two years, my health got really bad and with the recent diagnose of colitis, this has resulted in me throwing up daily so after I explained that, the look on her face made it seem like she felt bad finally. The following day I canceled the appointments I had made with this practice and got set up with a new dentist. DONT RECOMMEND

I have felt uncomfortable since the moment I went there. I tried to have an open mind, but always…read moretreaded going there, Dr. Poldek is ALWAYS pushing for more work just by digging in your mouth telling you what we need without taking/reviewing X-rays! It blows my mind that during a cleaning your teeth aren't even flossed. The heavyset lady that works at the front desk tries really hard to show empathy,but needs way better acting lessons. This gives me great pleasure in saying this, since I have never met such a fake individual. I had an issue with a tooth and I was trying to be forced to go to their new oral surgeon. Thankfully, I went with my gut on getting a referral while I was pushed to go to his guy and was extremely rude when this was requested. Not cool when you are a patient with so many options out there. It was discovered with my referral that was a deep rooted problem (not pun intended) with their technology that my issue was way worse than his oral surgeon would have ever discovered with would have caused major health issues for me. Save yourself from a terrible experience, save your teeth and don't let him rip you off! Ask your family and friends for solid referrals. Just found a new dentist today and never felt so comfortable with the dentist and staff. I know that my family is going to enjoy going to the dentist now. Poldek Dental, you are fired!

This dentist office has big issue with insurance claiming. They did two mail claiming after my…read morecleaning visit, but they didn't receive the payment from insurance company. Then after one year from the service date, they told me it was not paid by insurance company and need patient to pay it. I was shocked because no dental office did things that way. I called insurance company to ask for the reason. Insurance company said they didn't receive any claim for that service. And I called back to dental office to ask for claim ID / reject ID / or mailing history, they didn't have any of them since they just mail the cleaning form out and nothing except that. I asked insurance company how we can do now, insurance company said even after one year of service, dental office can still do "claim with dispute" to get this done and still can do this with mail. If dental office doesn't know how to do it, they can call insurance company and insurance company can walk through the steps with dental office and teach them how to do it. Then the dental office said NO, they will not submit the "claim with dispute" since they mailed "regular claim" twice. I don't know what to say and feel so frustrated with this office. Then I realized what a unfair and non-responsible notice posted at their office lobby. I was just about to call that office to do Vaseline for my son, but this issue made me so hesitate to do that.

Shin Shin Lee D.D.S. is one of the nicest dentist who takes the time with her patient. This is a review coming from a medical physician. She has excellent bedside manner and takes great care in explaining everything she does. She takes time to answer questions and even when she is cleaning, she provides a deep clean to remove the tarter and calcification. A initial evaluation and cleaning took over 45 min. My prior dentist was always in a rush and the positive here is that she uses a numbing gel to minimize any discomfort. Many insurances accepted. I'll be back in 6 month to ensure good gum health!

I've been seeing Dr. Thomas for all of my dental needs ranging from regular checkups and minor dental work to Invisalign and more robust dentistry. He is a perfectionist, which I appreciate, because my smile has never looked better. I've also seen several dental hygienists, who have done a great job and are very thorough. I am always treated very well by the office staff as well, and am remembered by name, which is another rarity. I've referred several friends to this practice and have been pleased to hear that they have also loved their experience.

I've heard such horror stories about this procedure, but this was not my experience. Dr. Linden is a gentle, meticulous practitioner. My recovery has been a very easy one too. If you need a root canal ( I hope you don't, but if you do). drive to Barrington to see Dr. Linden. He does keep space for Emergency Patients, so if you are in severe pain or if your teeth are extremely sensitive to heat or cold, don't wait, call his office. I can't say enough about the office staff and hygienists too. This entire place is 100% top-notch, professional. Thank you so much!
