If you saw "Marathon Man," you can't forget the phrase "Is it safe?" Spoiler alert: it wasn't, but…read moreI can't imagine a safer person than Dr. Terp to check, clean and even fill my teeth. I originally met Dr. Terp through friends at a party in Wrigleyville. I had recently returned to Chicago and needed a dentist; so I gave him a try. Now, I still travel 20 miles each way to see him--wow, for more than 20 years! He knows my choppers well; as he did the baby and does the adult teeth of my sister's family. I recommended him to them; as I recommend him to everyone. The 10-20 miles is definitely a road block for my downtown friends to see him (literally, on the Kennedy). His Saturday and evening appointments make it a lot easier. I could go to a place a few blocks from my abode, called something like The Art of Dentistry. The "art" part has always been a little frightening to me. I like that Dr. Terp is a complete dental science nerd. Ask him a question, and he'll geek out on the latest technique or product: the ultrasonic cleaner he uses, the difference between filling materials, the benefits/risks of x-rays... He can get as excited as a geek talking about his latest Comic-Con trip: Talk to the hand, bro; I'd rather hear Dr. Terp talk about the mouth, and it's healthier, in my mind. His office staff is great too. Most recently, Adriana was not only physically skillful in cleaning my teeth, but I felt as much tender, loving care from her as I do from Dr. Terp. In fact, this guy's so loving that he's offered free school check-ups to kids and has a coupon for a free first visit on his website. Bonus: he's around the corner from Paradise Pup. But I don't tell him about my visits there after I see him. That's for a different audience (http://goo.gl/4HQSE2).

The previous periodontist I had seen was unable to perform the grafting, so I looked around for another nearby office where I could schedule a consultation. After looking around and reading many positive reviews, I scheduled my consultation with Dr. Gupta. After stepping foot in this beautiful office, I could already tell that I would love it - it's so professionally run! The employees have headsets, the communication I received was friendly and consistent, and it's almost like a spa - I was offered sparkling water, there is calming music, a lava lamp, etc. On the day of my surgery, I was given eye protection, headphones with a choice of music to listen to, and the warmest, fluffiest blanket - I was so comfortable and relaxed. My pre-and post-op instructions were very clear, I was given all of the proper products I would need (mouthwash, chlorhexidine, plenty of gauze, long q-tips, etc) and everything went incredibly smoothly (Dr. Gupta was fantastic!) This office truly cares about the patient experience and I will most definitely recommend to others if they are in need of dental procedures.

Needless to say my next few procedures also went off without any issues and I've been back for periodic checks and cleanings. Bridget and Rosetta do a wonderful job. From the moment you walk in through to the moment you leave there is never a doubt you are in great hands. Office and clerical staff are excellent with appointments, calling if there is a cancellation to move you up and dealing with the insurance. Appointments are well scheduled, on time, and the waiting room is beautiful, welcoming and cozy with a great selection of reading material. Very happy with the excellent experiences with DiFranco Dental Specialists.

Misrepresentation, Pre-Charging without consent, and Privacy Breach. I do not recommend Nikisha…read moreJodhan. Across three procedures from 2021 to 2025, after reviewing the history of my account, I was quoted a lower price each time and then billed more after the procedures were done. They blamed the insurance and the app they use to estimate, but the fact is they don't do pre-authorization for their quotes. For my recent procedure in 2025, they failed to disclose a prior denial for the same code and same tooth from 2021, yet still gave me a quote that was wrong and later told me the insurance "unexpectedly declined" the same code. They also pre-charged me before insurance finished processing, without my consent, which broke their own policy and added confusion to the bill. This left me questioning whether they already anticipated there would be a remaining balance - otherwise, the pre-charge and refund back doesn't make any sense. When I reviewed the documents they sent me, I also found another patient's EOB in my file. Overall, this office shows a pattern of low quoting followed by higher bills, lacks transparency in billing, and fails to safeguard patient privacy. If this is their standard practice, I can only imagine how many patients may have ended up with the same experience I had.

Dr N. Jodhan refused to respond to 5+ of my calls - she was mileading, misrepresented my pay by…read moreover $1000, and I believe manipulating. Their staff estimated my service to be $2000+ for a tooth extraction, for which they estimated my insurance would pay half the amount, leaving my responsibility to be $1061.00. to which I paid before I left the premise. A month or two later, I received a bill for $1076.50 - the amount my insurance denied. Looking back, I realized I was naive and they manipulated the situation. I thought they would be accurate by merit that Dr. Jodhan's was a professional organization, that their estimates were accurate based on experience. It was after they put my apron for surgery was put that that said I needed to confirm. I assumed that because they were professionals, I might be obligated to pay $100-200. Also, when though the estimated included a tooth graft, they have the recommendation again - thinking back they knew it was optional all along! $1000+ is a huge amount. Knowing that the insurance company pays a substantially lesser amount than the listed price. And their estimate was way off. I called to discuss a mutually responsible settlement. After ignoring 5+ calls, Dr. Nikisha Jodhan instructed that I could pay the full amount with a payment plan. I find her actions to be irresponsive, manipulative, and misleading--which will cost me $1000+ more than I expected She offered a payment plan after I declared to publicize my experience. I am setting up the payment plan, and I plan to share my experience. I have sent her a similar email--continuing to request discussion. She has not responded. VERIFY ALL INFORMATION BEFORE SITTING ON HER CHAIR!

Four months later I had to call them when I realized I still never received the check- had I never called they would have made twice the cost of the exam (I paid them, and insurance also paid them).
