Herman Salzberg, DMD

Dr. Salzberg and his staff are wonderful. After my son chipped his front tooth, I needed to find a dentist quickly (i would not trust our previous one with this) and wanted someone who would do a good job as I knew it was going to be a costly fix. I had a few people recommend Dr. Salzberg on facebook and then read the reviews here. I decided to give him a call, but unfortunately his office is closed on Fridays and is by appointment only. This happened on a Thursday evening so I left a message anyway and hoped I could get in early next week. I actually got a call back by Dr. Salzberg the next day, explaining that he was not in the office and was booked for Saturday, but that he would have his office mgr. call if anything opened up. Luckily, I got a call that they could fit him in. Dr. Salzberg was so kind, as was his entire staff. He fixed his tooth and you cannot even tell there was a chip there. It was expensive, but Dr. Salzberg stands behind his work and said to come back if there are any issues (which I do not expect). Unfortunately he does not accept my insurance (BC/​BS PPO) but would definitely go back for routine cleanings/​x-​rays if he were in my PPO network.

I needed a new dentist and was lucky enough to find Dr. Salzberg. He and his staff are friendly, welcoming and soothing. I had a root canal yesterday and it went very well, and painless. He is very careful to make sure you are numb before starting any work. Dr, Salzberg is very nice to work with, I felt at ease with him. I would recommend him unconditionally!

One of the many times I will thank the Lord for Unilocal!I just moved up here and — due to a paralyzing fear — hadn’t been to the dentist in a LONG time. Turns out I now have a few issues to be taken care of, and I turned to Unilocal looking for a dentist that would treat me like the big baby I am (or knock me out in the waiting room). Dr Salzberg and his fabulous staff did not disappoint. Every person I encountered on each visit was caring, patient and highly professional. I had a couple of issues with a root canal, and at one point the doctor himself called me on a Friday night at 7pm to make sure I was ok. WHAT? Had my mom listen to the voice mail and we both marveled at a physician with a little touch of the care you’d have gotten in the 1950’s. I will be taking my 6-​year old daughter here when it’s her turn. Look no further…

Dr. Salzburg and his staff are like family! I’ve been going there for about 20 years and I think that I’m the only person I know who enjoys going to the dentist! Even when I have needed work that requires shots to numb, which I am afraid of needles, he has a way of doing them so it doesn’t hurt! And I always love when Linda leaves an appt. reminder message on my machine to my dogs to remind me!!! And I moved farther away and still make the drive out there because they’re worth it!!! They just are the BEST!!!

Dr. Salzberg puts you at ease with calming demeanor and the hygienists are very nice when taking X-​Rays! Just made him my new dentist and am very happy with it.
Hadn’t gone to the dentist in several years… so I have to have some procedures done, can update this review once they are done to fully review the establishment.

Dr. Salzberg is amazing! I have been putting off getting my old fillings replaced because I am not a big fan of visiting the dentist. A friend of mine recommended Dr. Salzberg and I am so glad I took her advise. The staff was very professional and the doctor replaced my old fillings painlessly. Great experience!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Salzberg for more than 20 years and have never had a bad experience.
Dr. Salzberg and his staff are friendly, professional, and accommodating. I’ve never had a problem with payment or insurance.
When I first saw him, my teeth were in bad shape. He got me squared away with good advice for ongoing care. He was never critical or judgmental.

After 42 years with the same dentist (my dad), it was a huge deal for me to go to a new dentist. I have been very happy with my experiences at Dr. Salzberg’s office. The staff is very friendly. Dr. Salzberg is an excellent dentist and I have full confidence in his work and trust his recommendations.

WOW — all I have to say is THIS IS YOUR DENTIST! First of all, the staff is so wonderful and treats you like family. They are so incredibly kind and caring. I’m a nervous wreck when it comes to the dentist and they made me feel so welcome and calm (which is the most important thing to me). Their prices are lower than the others I looked into and the office is extremely clean! I will tell ALL my friends about this Dental office and encourage them to change over to Dr. Salzberg and team!

If you need a great dentist, this is the place. I’ve been driving from the City for the past 10 years just to see Dr. Salzberg. A coworker had recommended Dr. Salzberg long ago, but I always declined because I didn’t want to make the long commute to Palatine. I’m glad I did. My visits have always been relaxed and on time. I have never had a painful visit and everyone in the office is so friendly and makes you feel like family. Unfortunately, I recently required more extensive care than the routine care of the past. It was comforting knowing that Dr. Salzberg would be able to handle all of my care in his office. Even though I had confidence in Dr. Salzberg, I still had trepidation about a possible involved lengthy procedure. I was glad to find, that there was no pain associated with the treatment and everything was completed in only two visits. Thanks again for the great service.

Went there as a new patient to see what the ortho recommended. I previously went to other orthos for consultations and why I chose this one is beyond me. He’s out to make a buck and doesn’t care what kind of service he provides. He recommend invisalign and told me how great it would be and that my teeth would be perfect for it (vs braces). Well, in the end– after 2 years of treatment vs the 1 year he said it was going to be– my teeth are less than perfect and I cant do anything about it bc they are ruined (he filed them bc I had crowding– and I still have the wonderful overbite I started with). I’m projecting that I will have to end up getting porcelain veneers in the future. Thanks «Dr.» Salzberg Do yourself a favor, and never visit this man nor take his advice.
