I have been a patient at The Magnificent Smile since I was a little girl in the 1950's. Dr. Joseph Schwarz was the dentist for my six siblings and me. Dr. Frericks is my dentist now and I appreciate his conservative approach to dentistry. He's a terrific dentist! Joanne (as well as the other hygienists) does a great job cleaning my teeth--I hope she never retires! Jamie is a wonderful front person in the office and is always a friendly face.

Thanks to the very professional and always courteous Front Office team who have always been very helpful in scheduling and answering any questions I have, especially related to insurance coverage. In this respect, Maggie was very helpful and patiently answered all of my questions. Jo Ann, Dental Hygienist, always does a fantastic job, even once finding a cracked tooth which was immediately x-rayed and examined by Dr. Frericks, who then fully explained my options. Recently had a very old (and tough to remove!) dental bridge replaced with a temporary by Dr. Frericks, who I think did an exceptional job, thoroughly explaining (and keeping me pain free), every step of the way. Thank you Dr. Frericks and your wonderful and caring staff!

I have been a patient of this extraordinarily caring, compassionate, and highly professional dental practice since October, 2023. At that time, in dire need of emergency dental work, I was referred by a highly-rated Chicago oral surgeon, to Drs. Frericks and Schwarz. They did not disappoint! I was seen immediately upon my arrival, and my extreme need for emergency dental first aid was promptly, graciously and efficiently attended to my complete satisfaction. And the exceptional TLC exhibited by Drs. Schwarz and Frericks on day one continues through the date of this review! Nor is the impressive personal touch always exhibited by Drs. Frericks and Schwarz limited to their professional staff -- Jamie, the Magnificent Smile's remarkable gracious, always obliging receptionist sets the perfect welcoming tone with her warm and charming demeanor. As an octogenarian, I have visited many dental offices during my many years, but in my experience NO OTHER DENTAL OFFICE has been as accommodating and obliging has been the Magnificent Smile. Indeed, due to the extremely warm and friendly atmosphere at the Magnificient Smile, it is almost as if I am LOOKING FOR A REASON to see the dentist. In summary, my five (5) star rating would, instead, be a ten (10) stars, if that category of praise was an available choice!
