If the thought of dental cleaning, drills, & picks gives you the heebie jeebies, this is the place to go. The receptionist is super sweet and welcoming when you arrive. She seemed more excited to see me than my own family! The dental hygienist that I've used, Denise, is very friendly and patient. She checks with you regularly to make sure you're comfortable during cleanings. She still has to do a thorough job, but not at the expense of pain and discomfort. Incredibly, she remembered the conversation we had the last time I was there. Dr. Relias is always friendly, asking how the family is and taking the time to make sure you're comfortable and clear on how things are looking in your pie-hole. The reception area takes care of submitting claims to insurance, which I'm sure is more painful than dental cleanings, so I'm happy about that. Overall, a great place to get your teeth taken care of and great for cowards!

Their billing coordinater JULIE is The rudest and unprofessional person i have ever met…read more I have Aetna DMO insurance and confirmed via email before my appointment that the office accepted it. They replied that they did. Later, I found out they do not accept Aetna DMO and that I would have to pay. I contacted the office with my concern, and they told me they would resolve the issue and contact me within a few business days. I did not hear back for almost six months, so I believed the issue had been resolved. After six months, the billing coordinator called and said I had to pay $92, accusing me of not informing them that I had Aetna DMO. I clearly stated that I informed them I had Aetna DMO both before my appointment and on the day of my visit, and I have the original email as proof. She did not listen, insisted I pay, and threatened to send the bill to collections. She also accused me of not knowing what insurance I have. I was very upset and went to the office in person. She was not welcoming, did not apologize, and did not acknowledge that this was not my fault. She said she started the job in August and was unaware of the issue, and even said, "Do you want to argue all day?". Unbelievable . I did not want to talk to her anymore and then they said DR. Rhie will see me after she is done with the patient but did not show up, i guess she just wants me to leave asap. Later after adjusting my balance to $0, billing coordinator said, "It's done. You'll never have to come again, The tone in which she said this was condescending and made me feel looked down on. I found this behavior rude and unprofessional. I am very upset that they failed to acknowledge their error or offer an apology for accusing me

I do not recommend this doctor to anyone. After that I started looking at forums and it turned out that there are many like me and many victims. I think she is not worthy of a dentistry license.

This experience has been phenomenal for the 7 years I've been with Dr. Aaron…read more I came to him in 2018 after being neglected by my oral surgeon, who had placed two implants, and the dentist who had done the crowns. I had suspicion something was going on as one was wiggling. Dr. Aaron jumped on it and was able to identify malpractice and addressed the offending surgeon (Dr. Vaina of IVOMS in Peru, IL) to have it corrected. I went back to the offending surgeon (due to cost reasons and giving him a chance to fix it) and about 6 surgeries later, I was even worse off. Dr. Aaron investigated and created a course of action, which involved referring me to a new surgeon, Dr. Frank of Northshore Smile Surgery, who proceeded to perform a miracle to restore my gums to full health. Dr. Aaron created me a temporary fix to keep my teeth in place which held me in tact for five years. In October 2024, despite living in another state, I called Dr. Aaron and let him know the remaining implant was showing really bad signs and he confirmed my thoughts and told me to come in that week to have it addressed. I traveled 10 hours to see him and he was incredibly thorough and sensitive in handling the issue and it was deemed I had to go back to Dr. Frank to correct more malpractice from the offending surgeon at IVOMS (Dr. Vaina). Dr. Aaron set me up in a temporary bridge to help keep the aesthetics of my gums in tact and so as to not leave me toothless in the front as a young woman and bride to be. After the two month healing period, he squeezed me back in his schedule as I traveled 10 hours to see him again through Michigan winter madness. After 8 years of pain and trauma from other providers, Dr. Aaron took care of me at the highest level. He was the only one willing to identify and tackle this complex and heartbreaking nightmare, he handled each step over 8 years so tactfully and was truly invested in not only my business, but genuinely cared about my well being and wanted to see me find my dream smile. Dr. Aaron has truly gone above and beyond for me in every single aspect of my care for almost a decade, every dentist should be at his level. His sense of ethics, his personality, his attention to detail, his level of care... he's second to none. As a former dental professional myself, after working with him, it makes me never want to go anywhere else the rest of my life. The rest of the staff is fantastic too! Occasionally the other doctors would get involved in my case and were always very direct and clear while showing empathy for the situation. The front office staff and manager Kathy are wonderful and really helpful, always making sure to give any information needed and working around my wild schedule being out of state. The assistants are all fantastic and incredibly personable as well, I've always enjoyed each one I've had and have been pretty consistent faces over the years! You can't ask for a better dental office from start to finish. They even have a service dog on site, which has been amazing through something that's been traumatic to go through and recover from. I wouldn't be here tonight with my dream smile if it wasn't for Dr. Aaron saving me from malpractice from another office. After hating my smile my whole life, I can finally feel confident (and eat again)!

Online information stated that 95% of HPV cases are males. Later on the practice changed its policy so that men also have to sign. I also objected to being called in for bite wing xays. This was because I had oral surgery and had been told not to use bite wings until the wound healed. When I told Dr.Katz about my concerns regarding all this, he argued with me. The next day I was told to go somewhere else. The practice claims it strives to always do better. But as soon as I complained, I was shown the door.
