And on top of his professional skills and experience, he's just an amazing doctor to his patients and puts them well at ease for what can be a nerve-racking experience. He put me in position for a complication-free post-op with thorough instructions and had an open line to his staff for any follow-up questions or referral.

When it was time for the implant, his resident physician did an amazing job at numbing the area and making sure I was comfortable. The actual procedure was quick and painless.

I was referred to Millennium Park Oral Surgery by my dentist for wisdom tooth removal. I scheduled…read morean appointment through their website, which clearly advertises: "Wish to get a free consultation or a quick checkup to identify the kind of treatment you need? Just give us a call or submit the form here." Based on this language, I reasonably expected that the initial consultation would be free of charge. At the appointment, I met with a doctor and received x-rays. I was charged $188 at the time, which I was told covered the x-rays in case insurance didn't. After my claim was processed, insurance fully covered the x-rays. However, I was informed that $100 of that charge would be kept as a "consultation fee"--a charge that was never disclosed before or during the appointment and directly contradicts the free consultation claim on their website. Further complicating matters, I learned shortly after my visit that the doctor I saw--who was in-network with my insurance--had left the practice. As a result, Millennium Park Oral Surgery was no longer able to provide in-network care. The consultation I paid for not only involved an undisclosed fee but ultimately led nowhere, since continuing treatment would have been out of network. When I called the office to request a refund--since the x-rays were paid by insurance and the consultation no longer served its purpose--I was told they would only refund $88 and retain $100 for the consultation. During two separate phone calls with the Vice President of the company, I was hung up on. At no point did I use inappropriate language or become hostile--outside of being, understandably, a bit frustrated by the situation. On one of those calls, I was explicitly told that I would only receive the $100 refund if I removed my negative Google review. She also made it clear that the refund would not be processed until the review was taken down. This kind of behavior is unacceptable. Advertising free consultations, withholding undisclosed fees, and conditioning a refund on the removal of honest public feedback is not just unethical--it may violate Illinois consumer protection laws, including those addressing deceptive business practices and coercive conduct. I strongly urge anyone considering this practice to get all charges and billing terms in writing and to document the website's claims before proceeding. My experience revealed serious issues with transparency, communication, and respect for patient rights.

I had an upper molar removed (elsewhere)…read moreJan 2020 and my lower back molar removed last year due to an abscess under it, which Dr. Gregory Thomas removed. It was my first encounter with a new oral surgeon. After deciding to not get braces to correct slight imperfection in my bite, I moved ahead which double-surgery. (Can't move implants is why braces first.) An upper left and lower right implant- both at the same surgery. (For me it was the best decision ever, honestly.) Dr. Thomas is cool as a cucumber. His presence is super-calming. He, of course, had to give me local injections in my gums, but numbed me SO well I felt hardly any of it. (Keep in mind...I'm a HUGE baby.) I did not flinch but made one or two whimpers. (Did not mean to, but natural reaction.) The gals he works with are totally in sync with him. Effortlessly in-sync surgery team. The high-tech gadgets & screen (see pic) were totally impressive and reassuring that he was seeking best placement of implant screws and also avoiding my sinus which was very near to where the upper implant needed to go. Pain during procedure? Nope, not once. If I ever had to have this surgery again, lemme tell you, there's only ONE person for this job!! Dr. Thomas is the guy. The surgery he said would be 1hr to 1hour 15 min. Dead on. I had no clue exactly what was going on during the procedure until the drill part. And even if he told me, I kinda blocked it out. Upper was more brain vibration, but I found bottom more difficult cuz you are getting a lot of pressure on movable jaw. Not painful, just a bit of a muscule workout. I got a call later in the day yesterday from his team to make sure I was okay. I had started my antibiotics the day prior, as he requested, and took one Naproxen 500. It was all I needed. Even this morning I'm pain-free, but still took Naproxen500 as a "just in case" situation. I had a bit of mashed potatoes last night so I could take the antibiotic with food, but no hard solids for a few days. No problem. If you are like me, I work out, I got it in my gym visit before surgery, as I cannot work out for 3 days post op. No straws is also an typical oral surgery restriction for 3 days. COST: Each patient case is different. I went into the office a week prior and got prepped with x-rays and these funky clips I had to wear during surgery (part of the high tech surgery). Not painful, not annoying, just part of it. Panoramic xray for bone level checks. All was great! Woohoo! Plus, he called my new dentist's office to find out which implant post she prefers to work with. (There are choices.) He found me at checkout, and said he was thrilled they chose the best of the choices. (Dr. Thomas explained he has several posts to choose from, and 3 are his top favorites for several reasons.) I paid upfront for all of the pre-op work at just a smidge over $400. Yes, yesterday's bill was a lot higher, BUT I priced it out against my insurance allowance (he's out of network for all dental plans) and it was in line with my insurance allowable. ADVICE: check how your insurance pays for out of network care. Mine pays the same but the dentist can charge anything. Again, Dr. Thomas' bill per tooth was in-line with the in-network dentists. Plus, I'm unsure if I had gone to an in-network DDS if they would be as compassionate and capable as Dr. Thomas. Yes, I did pay the full amount upfront, and yes, they did bill my dental insurance on my behalf. Would I choose another oral surgeon? Nope, not as of today. I'm glad this is over, and i have post-op visit next week. Then I wait months for healing and then 2 teeth will be up next. That will be from my new dentist, Dr. Priyanka Patel in Lincoln Park at Rooted Care.

His team even calls after certain exams or procedures just to make sure I'm doing okay... which is honestly unheard of these days.

And if you want someone who truly values you and your time and goes above and beyond for his patients, this is 100% your doctor.

The second time I went to him (this year) I was a very high risk patient - I had recently had a heart attack and two stents put in. I needed a severely abscessed tooth extracted which needed extraction now because it was infected and could cause me problems bec of my condition but if he did the extraction wrong or at all I could bleed to death bec I am on blood thinners. He couldn't properly anesthetize me because that could cause me to go into cardiac arrest and a nerve block could also cause me to die. I also could no go off the blood thinners or I might die. Somehow he got the tooth out with only a local and a partial block, and he packed it with blood clotting agent so I didn't bleed to death. He is a miracle worker and a courageous and skilled surgeon. If I was ever caught in a fox hole and the enemy was advancing and I had no weapon if this guy jumped in and said "follow me" I'd follow him anywhere.
