What recent reviews say

Staff greet patients warmly and stay calm under pressure; Bianca and Zaleaka at front desk are known for remembering patients, calling on weekends, and helping with insurance and anxiety. Procedures happen fast and costs stay low. A handful of bad experiences (wrong hours, outdated equipment, one orthodontist complaint) weigh against overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Dental work is praised as gentle and thorough, especially extractions and cleanings. The business states it serves Chicago, Elgin, Hyde Park, Oak Lawn, and surrounding areas. Some reviewers note newer competitors have better imaging technology, though most patients remain loyal.

  • fast and efficient service
  • gentle dental work

Dr. Fayz and her team consistently deliver calm, explanatory care. Patients consistently mention feeling at ease during procedures, appreciated being walked through each step, and praised staff responsiveness during healing. They handle periodontal work, implants, extractions, crown lengthening, and gum grafts. Dr. Fayz speaks Spanish. The practice operates since 1992 in Hyde Park and follows ADA, OSHA, and CDC standards. One note: occasional hour-long waits, though staff flexibility with running late was appreciated.

Most visits leave patients impressed by the warm welcome and gentle touch of the team, especially Dr. Obaisi and hygienist Lashawnda, who take time to explain what's happening and ease anxiety around procedures. However, some long-term patients cite persistent billing confusion, frequent staff changes, and a rigid approach to scheduling (enforced payments upfront, no grace for arriving minutes late). One root canal resulted in infection and slow follow-up care, raising questions about consistency across departments.

Two reviews over six years offer limited evidence. Both praise staff warmth and quick care. One mentions a child with dental anxiety felt comfortable; the other notes poor parking access and suggests facility upgrades would help.
