Higgins Family Dental

I’ve had a great experience here for both a standard teeth cleaning and having some cavities filled recently. Dr. Korolyov was great.

I haven’t been to Dr G in a while, cracked a tooth & panicked. Called the office & spoke with Kathy who set me up. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. Hygienist Lesley is so nice & made me feel so much better about my situation & Dr. Korolyov managed to fix my tooth & didn’t have any pain or discomfort after numbness went away. They are nothing but nice & accommodating here. Kathy is incredibly sweet, Lesley is awesome & Dr. K is the best dentist I’ve ever seen.

Had a wonderful experience at Higgins Family Dental. I was scared to go to the dentist for years after a bad experience (don’t ask), but not anymore! Dr. Korolyov and his staff were unbelievable– they answered all my questions and made me feel extremely comfortable. I can officially say I like going to the dentist now :) I recommend Dr. Korolyov to all my friends and family — 5 stars without question

There is no one better. No one. Dr. Goldblatt is a gem. He’s been my dentist for around 30 years? Can that be correct?
From emergency root canals to 6 month cleanings, Dr Goldblatt and his staff are fabulous. Recently I had some insurance questions, and Kathy at the desk was super helpful and gave me all of the information I needed.
Dr Goldblatt himself is amazing. He knows all about my «dental anxiety» and he walks me through every step of every procedure, with a calming hand on my shoulder asking if I’m ok every few minutes. He also has great taste in music, an emergency appointment I once had included some awesome Springsteen tunes.
Most of my family, our family’s friends, and my friends go to see him. If you want the greatest dentist in Chicago, he’s your man.

A great dentist, he has done a lot of work for my teeth over the years. I always like that he was an old fashioned dentist that cared about his patients is not trying to sell me teeth whitening and other products. Lots of changes in the office last few years, rehab the office, new equipment, lots of marketing and higher prices now.

Wonderful staff and awesome doctor. They knew their stuff :) I have a usual dentist and ortho, but I needed a clean in my current city and I was very pleased. The receptionist, Stacy, is a rock star, and the hygienist and the doc both are very knowledgeable and made the process extremely worth while! Now I will start flossing!

I absolutely love this place. Don’t remember doctors name, but he was a young man, and super cool. The wait was not long at all, the sitting area was clean, and the staff is one of the most awesome people I’ve ever met. Made me feel very comfortable, and answered every question I had for them. Thank u guys!

Want to give Higgins Family Dental 5 Stars!
I would give them a higher rating if I could. We needed to find a dentist kind of quickly. I made the call and the office persons name was Stacy was so professional and, kind and understanding to our situation. Stacy went way beyond my expectations of getting us in the next day. We went today not only did we get our appointment exactly on time! The staff, and the dentist went out of their way to talk to us and make us feel very important. The appointment went great already set up for the next several visits. By the way they now they have two new patients. Awesome place! Stacy all I can say thank you for all your help!

I m giving 2 star because the front desk people who check on your insurance and make sure the coverage are all good, are lousy is hell. I have spent almost 2 grand just cleaning my teeth and they send me wrong checks all the time. I always have to call back and tell them its not the right amount. I paid all the bills but front desk people suck at their work so much they send me $ 100s of dollars of bill over and over. I m changing my dental place… Will never go back. I m actually suppose to have a new implant and fix my sinus with their affiliated doctors and offices but not going here again. And when they did my deep cleaning they didn’t put enough numbing gel and the injection felt real pain. After injection my hygienist started cleaning deep inside my teeth and i could feel everything and it was hurting me. But i give my hygienist a 5 star. She was great. Make sure you check all your bills and confirm with ur insurance coz these people are pro in ripping you off.

I had the privilege of being worked on by Dr. Korolyov when I needed one of my teeth extracted. I was really nervous because this was my first tooth I ever had to have removed.
Dr. Korolyov has a wonderful personality and made me feel so calm before the procedure.
The surgery was a great success and I did not feel a thing. I have nothing but good things to say about him and his really friendly staff Stacy and Anna. I am now a regular patient here at this dental office because of this great experience I had.
I recommend Dr. Korolyov to anyone seeking a professional and skilled dentist!
Thanks Dr. K!

I’m sixty-​seven years old and have been going to dentists all my life. Dr. Goldblatt is by far the finest dentist that I’ve ever gone to. He is extremely competent, very gentle, and he explains exactly what he is doing. He also explains what your options are depending on the situation. I feel very fortunate that Dr. Goldblatt is in the neighborhood. If he wasn’t, he’s the kind of dentist that I would gladly travel to go see. In a word Stuart Goldblatt is the best, and I’ve been to my fair share of dentists. I wish I could give him six stars!

Very professional and fun environment!
I just came to Higgins Family Dental as a new patient. This place was wonderful from the front desk, to the hygienist, to the assistant and Doctor! They work with my insurance, and for the services that aren’t covered by my insurance at 100%, they offer deferred interest financing. I completely trust Dr. Goldblatt and his staff, and they will come highly recommended from me to anyone who is looking for a dentist!

Sadly I have to give Dr. Stuart Goldblatt 1 star and I think the State of Illinois should look into his business practices. I went to Dr. Goldblatt a few times and had two or three cleanings that I was happy with, and he made a night guard for me that I think was done properly, but I am disturbed about two things that happened while I was Dr. Goldblatt’s patient.
1. On my final visit to Dr. Goldblatt’s office, his hygienist cleaned my teeth and that went well. Dr. Goldblatt was not in the office that day — he had another dentist filling in for him, his name was Dr. Randall Tellier. Dr. Tellier looked at my teeth after the cleaning. He suggested that he do a small cosmetic procedure on one of my two upper middle teeth (I think tooth #9). Dr. Tellier’s suggestion sounded like it would do more harm than good. I asked him a few questions and he told me he was busy and that I was taking up too much of his time. I told him I would think about doing it in the future and left. When I got into my car I Googled Dr. Tellier on my phone to see if he had any Unilocal reviews. The first thing in the Google results was the Illinois Department of Professional Regulation (IDPR) which I never heard of before. According to IDPR, DR. TELLIER WAS OPERATING WITHOUT A LICENSE!!! HE HAD NOT HAD A LICENSE FOR 5 YEARS!!! I lost all respect for Dr. Goldblatt after that experience and never went back. BTW, the next dentist I went to told me that Dr. Tellier’s recommended procedure would have failed within a few months.
2. The other complaint I have about Dr. Goldblatt is regarding a filling he did on one of my lower right teeth. I had a 10 year old filing that I had no problem with in this tooth, but Dr. Goldblatt insisted that it was failing and that it needed to be replaced. I thought I was in good hands (my mistake) and agreed to the procedure. After he did his work, it felt like there was less tooth there and there is a hole patched with silver that is noticeable when I smile. The filling seems to be holding, but aesthetically I am not happy with it and I wonder if the work was really needed, or if Dr. Goldblatt was just trying to make a few extra bucks.

This is by far the best dentist I’ve EVER been to. Let me start out by saying I was traumatized by a pediatric dentist when I was a child and have not been to a dentist in YEARS! My sister recommended Dr. Goldblatt and boy was I glad she did!
He was so kind and patient with me explaining everything, his staff is so sweet and gentle felt SO st ease. I ended up needing a crown and I have to say aside from some pressure I felt nothing! I will sing their praises over and over again! I will never let my dental visits pass again. Parking is easy, it’s easy to get to, very very good rates!
