University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry

I Have Been a Patient at UIC Dental for
Several yrs. now; I am frequently receiving Compliments from others about "How Great My Teeth Look".
I owe it to the Various Hard Working
Student Dentist that have "Assisted" me
In my Journey to Better Dental Health.
Each New Year you may get a New Stu. Dr. - Currently my Dr's Name is Mrs. Baski- She is New to me. However, I feel
that she is a Very Good Dentist, Thorough and Compassionate.

A bit of a wait but very easy to find, easy to check in, and super friendly staff.. 👌🏼

My son got a referral to go here . You can never get ahold of a representative to even make a appointment.

I called the U I C Dentist on 01/13/2016 to see if I could reschedule an appointment for my son, a Hispanic woman returned my call back on 01/14/2016 about 11:05 am, as we were talking I could barely understand her as we'll as I don't think should could really understand me due to her not learning proper English and I never took Spanish, but due to me being born and raised in the United States of America, why would I need to learn Spanish? This Hispanic woman had the audacity to hang up in my face because she's to lazy to do the job that she's being paid to do, when will this change, are they even trying to deal with the poor customer service at this dental clinic? U.I.C. Pediatric Dental School Customer Service is horrible, it makes know since at all, the sad part about all of this is that know one will do anything to change their snotty ways.

In September and October I was experiencing discomfort on the right side in the back of my tongue. I thought my tongue was scratching a chipped tooth. I finally couldn't take it any longer and went to my dentist Dr. Lotsof at Methodist Hospital. When he took a look at my tongue he excused himself and went to his office where he made an appointment with Dr. Louis Halkias of Oral Surgery Associates. I went to see him and November 3rd he performed a Biopsy on my tongue. A week later I went back and he told me that the results of the Biopsy showed that I had tongue cancer. He also made an appointment with Dr. Markiewicz and told me that Dr. Markiewicz not only was his teacher but his specialty was tongue cancer.
When I went to see him I brought my girlfriend who was a cancer survivor and she had a lot of questions which Dr.Markiewicz answered everyone which really helped me understand. The best news though was when the Doctor examined my tongue he told me that we caught the cancer in it's infancy and that it hadn't spread. He told me I had squamous cell carcinomas. He also told me there would be a partial tongue removal plus a sentinel node biopsy.
On November 30th I had surgery And since then I've been cancer free. I continue to see Dr.Markiewicz once every 6 weeks and since yesterday (5-22-17) it's now every 3 months.
Not only do I think that Dr. Markiewicz is awesome I also think he ROCKS!!!

Dr. James is an excellent dentist. He is very nice, follow up with each appointment, and fullfill all the request to make denture perfect. I highly recommend him to others.

I have been having a wonderful experience at UIC Denistry. My student Tanvi has been very knowledgeable with my treatment and what it will entail. I look forward to having a clean bill of health with my teeth and oral wellness. Have patience and you will have a great smile.

For years, I had heard good things about the College of Dentistry at UIC. Now, I can clearly see why I was hearing those good things. This program is awesome. The Dental teaching program is highly organized and represented well by students who appear eager and knowledgeable in their efforts to serve the public while continuing their education. The student I had was Mona Sawwan, and she was personable, patient, caring, and smart. She immediately made me feel that I was in the best of hands. I was also very impressed with the instructors who calmly went from student to student relaying their expertise and superior knowledge with smiles, never showing impatience or anger with the avidity of their students. This is a program that gives promise to all the future dentist under its wing. I applaud UIC's College of Dentistry.

Impacted wisdom tooth with 15+ days with headaches. Have been waiting for an appointment since late Nov. when I sent my referral. Three months later and still no call back!!

It has taken me a month for my son to get a visit his dentist sends all information to this God awful place coming from lake county taking me an hour and 45 minute commute for them to not answer their phone so I could let them know I was going to be late when I finally get there 15 minutes after my appointment they tell me they canceled my appointment 15 minutes ago and they weren't going to do anything for my son until he complained of pain. Really pathetic place dirty I wouldn't recommend to anyone only people who are looking for a cheap fix and not worried about them doing things the right way never will I go there again or recommend them to anyone they need new staff so rude and for working with children not sympathetic at all I would give them negative stars if I could
