Dr. Patel and his team were able to settle me down and besides a little pressure from the pulling, I didn't feel a thing. I'm on day two now and I'm easily getting along on the prescribed Motrin for a slight ache in the area, most likely from the expected swelling.

No effort to even do the slightest bit of research to back up their claim that it was in- network. Halkias talked to me for an hour with the 3D X-Ray, using big words that he knew I wouldn't follow to try to confuse me into thinking he's an elite provider. After an outrageous consultant fee, a scam-esque 3D XRay maneuver, and a business model that purposely squeezes North Shore patients out with exclusive out-of-network procedure options, I can firmly say this is one of the scummiest businessmen in the area. He spent two hours with me feeding his own maniacal ego, and a few months later, I just had my teeth done by John Brunetti who didn't put me through a quarter of the BS that Halkias did. Don't let Halkias scare and scam you. Find some place with less "pizzaz" that is in network. ***clarifying edit***: Just to be clear, they did not offer me the option to NOT use the 3D XRay. They saw my normal imaging from my dentist, saw that they might need more imaging, then told me "The doctor is ordering a 3D Xray. It should be covered by insurance. We'll take you in now." No question. No concern. No pause. Just fully kept me rushing (probably) knowing full well they would be getting $500 out of pocket for me. Can't emphasize enough how scummy that was.

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!

I've gone here on and off for years. The cleanings are great. The dental staff is very…read moreknowledgeable and overall are usually friendly. Prices seem higher than other offices. However, I've noticed that every single crown done here has ended up needing a root canal. My last crown done here that didn't need one is currently acting up and is going to need one as well. A few years back, Dr. Kase fitted a crown and I remember his hand was very rough - he pulled and pushed on the tooth he was working on very hard and seemed very frustrated while working on it. The tooth was in extreme pain for several days following this. This tooth ended up needing a root canal shortly over a year afterwards and was also suffering from root resorption which I was told is fairly rare and could be caused by trauma to the tooth (which the tooth never had aside from the rough handling during the crown fitting here). I also ran into a massive problem with Delta Dental insurance over them not wanting to cover a root canal done on a crowned tooth done at this office since they already had recently paid for a crown on that same tooth. After fighting with them for months, in the end they refused to cover the root canal. It's hard to tell if the insurance was being unreasonablly difficult and cheap, or they just felt it was a red flag that the same tooth needed to have extensive work done twice within a short period of time (or maybe a combination of both). Either way, the odds of needing root canals shortly after having crowns done are fairly low enough to the point that it is somewhat alarming that every single crown done here needed a root canal in a relatively short period of time afterwards. I simply think that it's only prudent to be weary about this.

Dr. Steven Krauss is the only dentist at Village Crossing and I can't say enough amazing things about him. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and caring. As bad as dentist visits can be, I feel comfortable when he is doing my dental work which is super important when it comes to any type of visits in the medical field. He has the nicest staff working for him - the two ladies at the front, as well as the nurse who does my cleaning. I had recommended my coworker to go see him when she needed dental work, and she has been thrilled ever since. I would without a doubt recommend others to go see him as well. The only issue I run in on is that they are very busy, so it takes a few minutes to find a good appt time for me. Granted, I have limited hours since I work, but it ends up working out. I almost always receive calls from the office when another patient had canceled or rescheduled his or her appointment, which to me is great patient care. Either way, if you are looking for a dentist in the Niles/Skokie area, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Krauss.

I called to schedule a 6 month cleaning with Aspen Dental and they informed me that I would need to have a consultation before I could schedule my cleaning, but they offer the cleaning service and hopefully I could do it in the same visit. When I arrived and went through the consultation the staff were very accommodating. At the end of the consultation they said I would need a deep cleaning and they would put me on a schedule to come in periodically for additional follow-up. I informed them that I would like to think about doing it next time, but just wanted to do my 6 month normal cleaning now, as it is covered by my insurance and financially I would prefer to hold off until my next visit. When I suggested that, they refused to let me get my cleaning because it wasn't part of their "plan". I left the office without making any commitment. I tried calling to schedule it later and once again I was denied. They were not willing to work with me. Additionally, I was told by 2 people on the phone when making my appointment that my insurance would fully cover the consultation, so when I eventually received my bill a few days ago, I wasn't happy that they took more imaging than my insurance allowed and had an outstanding balance of $24.00. I know it is not a lot of money, but the fact that I was lied to about being able to get my 6 month cleaning and that my visit would be fully covered by insurance was unacceptable to me. I paid my balance without arguing, because I don't want to deal with Aspen Dental anymore.
