The smile perfecter. Dr. Harris is extremely knowledgable and involved with every service. I've been a patient for years and I hate I've gone to other dentist in the past; Dr. Harris has had to go-over and correct the work of former dentist. I am always happy with her work although I dread coming to sit in a dentist chair; at least I'm sitting in comfort and assured it'll all be done properly here.

My friend and I were on the search for a new dentist and we winged it and chose Karen! I couldn't have made a better choice. She is amazing the staff is amazing. Never had a dentist before and I'm glad to have found her! Highly recommend her, you won't be disappointed!

I cannot say enough good things about this office, and everyone who works there! Dr. Harris is a great dentist--talented, thorough, and ethical, clearly communicating what all of your options are, when it comes to different procedures. All of the hygienists are all also so talented and kind (I have some nerves around dentistry, and they always make cleanings an easy, painless experience), and everyone who works in the office is excellent at their job, kind, and thoughtful. Their prices are also very reasonable--I have Illinois insurance, which is always a headache, but they make navigating my tricky insurance easy. I always leave the office feeling so well cared for--everyone here genuinely cares about their patients, and their health! (And Dr. Harris also has her adorable, sweet dogs in the office to greet you--an extra bonus!)

I can't begin to say how great these gals are here! Every time I walk in I feel as if I am treated like family. Their work is great and prices are very fair. I had an incident with a chipped tooth and they got me right in--the first appointment on a Monday. I can't rave enough. I'm very picky and this location and group are very impressive. I'd highly recommend.

I never knew I could love a dentist. Everyone here is so incredibly kind and skilled at their jobs. I hadn't been to a dentist in an embarrassingly long time and needed 8 cavities filled over several visits. I'm a huge baby and the procedures are never painful and everyone is very sensitive and intuitive. They're always very understanding and transparent with any insurance/financial issues and were willing to work with me when my employer switched to a worse provider. The icing on the cake is that it's an office full of women and they always have cute dogs in the lobby to great you. :)

If you enjoy time share presentations, then this is the dentist for you! You will be sold unnecessary treatments at every turn, including sleep study and chiropractic referrals, expensive "smart" mouth wash, third annual cleanings, and unnecessary dental work. Additionally, expect to pay about 20% more than most other dentists. Cognitive dissonance (fear tactics) will be used to persuade you. I was told I wouldn't just want any dental implant from any lab that would place toxins in my mouth. That was supposed to convince me to pay an additional $500 more per implant than most other local dentists charge for crown and abutment. Dentist redid work I had completed approximately 6 months earlier without my consent. Insurance company refused to pay for unnecessary work and I was left with the bill. Good luck!

My boyfriend has a paralyzing fear of dentists, and hasn't been for nearly 15 years. Childhood sexual abuse made the experience unbearable, and triggers anxiety for him. He told Dr. Harris he wasn't sure how he would react, and he was afraid he would bite the staff. They were incredibly sympathetic. A hefty dose of valium, laughing gas, an all female staff, and a comforting canine made the six fillings as painless as possible. We are both so grateful.His healthy teeth look beautiful. Thank you ladies!

I called Dr. Harris' office as a new patient to make an appointment for a routine cleaning. The receptionist, Judy, informed me that Dr. Harris does not perform cleanings during a new patient's first visit. X-rays are taken during the first appointment, then the patient is "educated & informed" as to "what type of cleaning is needed". Um, what?? Isn't there just one type of cleaning? For the past 30 years, I've never gone to a dentist that had different types of cleanings. I told the receptionist that I'd just had a full head x-ray and bite wings taken last March. The only reason I was switching dentists is because my insurance changed & my former dentist was out of network. I asked if Dr. Harris' office could contact my former dentist & get copies of my x-rays. Judy said, "No, other dentists won't release the x-rays to us." Um, yes they do. I called my former dentist & they'd be happy to send them to you after I sign paperwork stating I agree to release them to you. Judy still insisted that I had to have x-rays & a consultation before they'd even make an appointment to clean my teeth. I stated that my teeth are in excellent condition. I've never had a cavity, never had braces, and all I needed was a routine cleaning. Couldn't they just schedule one and take the x-rays during the same appointment? Nope. What if I don't have time to visit your office twice just for a routine cleaning? Tough. That's their policy & there's no budging. I gave up. Hopefully the next dentist office I call actually listens to my needs & follows the same procedures as every other dentist I've ever been to.
