Larry A Fisher, DDS

This is the greatest dentist ever. Not only is Dr. Fisher gentle. .he’s extremely thorough and extremely affordable. (The staff is very nice as well.) You still have your elongated waiting room times… but where don’t you. Added bonus. …large amount of easy access free parking at his building.

I’ve been coming to Dr. Fisher for more years than I can remember. And to be honest with you I think he has lost a step. It seems like every time I visit him I have to come back 4 – 6 times for the same problems with the same tooth! I’m walking in now to his office and the reason being… he forgot to put a filling in!!! I respect him as a dentist but I can’t keep going back to be inconvenienced.

A tooth above the rest, this dentist office makes it bearable.
Cracked tooth fixed for under $ 500.00 so wonderful agree with the other reviewers.

Dr. Fisher is so wonderful! When I was there, I felt like I was the most important patient in the world! He actually does his own cleanings, which is really rare nowadays. I have told so many people about Dr. Fisher and how wonderful he is. He even shaved down the crown that had been bothering me for a year– in five seconds! He’s the best, it’s the truth. I’m really glad Unilocal brought me to Dr. Fisher!

I’ve been going to Dr. Fisher for over 4 years now. Before that, I had jumped around dentists like crazy, never really finding one I liked well enough to stick around. I love that he’s the one to actually clean your teeth (before, every practice I went to had a hygienist do it and then a dentist would come in for about 2 seconds to look around) and answer any questions. He is patient and kind and his staff is very friendly. I went a couple times while I was pregnant and Dr. Fisher did everything manually/​without electric tools without my asking, since I had increased gum sensitivity due to the pregnancy. We just moved to the ‘burbs, but I’ll likely still come here.

Dr. Fisher and his staff are the kindest people in the whole world. I am not exaggerating. I went in on Monday without an appointment in complete hysterics due to pain (after two teeth extractions done by another doctor) and frustration. Dr. Fisher sat me down, wrote me a prescription for the pain and explained to me why what I was going through was normal. No charge. I called yesterday again to clarify what was going on with my pain since I couldn’t comprehend anything due to the previous day’s hysterics. He explained everything again and did not sound inconvenienced in the least. I called again today since I’m still having pain and the secretary was so nice and understanding. I have been a total pain in the ass to these people and they could not be more compassionate. Thank you for making this dental nightmare not so bad!

Dr. Fisher is the best dentist I’ve ever seen. My best friend referred to him 3 years ago, now I’m living in IN still he is my only dentist. His staff are super friendly, too. He understands that that I’m a student without benefits, make me the dental care affordable, which I really hope that all healthcare be reachable for all of us. It seems like he understands that. His humble and kind personality can explain. His skills as a dentist is excellent as well. I highly recommend Dr. Fisher to everyone. I always appreciate his care.

Unhelpful staff regarding scheduling an appointment. I was hesitant about making an appointment here and after the curt receptionist, I will not be calling back.

Dr. Fisher is very pleasant and daddish/​grandfatherly. I went in to have him take a look at some work done by another dentist that I wasn’t too sure about… Dr. Fisher was very reasonable in his assessment, and talked with me about my options. He was very considerate of possible costs to me; and even opted not to charge me for the office visit since I didn’t have any work done that day.

This was my first time here for a cleaning and as I found Dr. Fisher through Unilocal,I thought I’d leave a review on Unilocal.I had a late appt in order to be able to go after work. They were able to get me in fairly soon as some places I’ve had to wait months to get in after 5:00 pm. Dr Fisher was very nice and did the actual cleaning. I’m used to only seeing the dentist for 5 minutes in most cleanings so this was nice that he was there for the whole thing. He gave me great tips on dental care that you’d think I’d have been shown by previous dentist but haven’t. It was super fast too, after Xrays, the cleaning and general questions, I felt like there should have been 30 min more to my appt. It could be because I didnt have to wait at all prior to seeing him. That is a huge plus. He also offered into looking up information on costs of Invisalign since I had braces 12 years ago, some shifting has taken place that no other dentists have mentioned at all, either they didn’t see it may be an issue, or because I didn’t bring it up first, they never have. Either way for someone who hates going to the dentist and is used to getting bad news over needing fillings, root canals, crowns, or extractions, this was my most positive, quick, and painless trip to the dentist ever!

I used to dread going to the dentist; it was always an uncomfortable experience, usually painful and would take FOREVER. Then I went to Dr. Fisher.
I have gone to Dr. Fisher for a cleaning and a filling. I was never kept waiting in the waiting room for long at all, neither was I kept waiting in ‘the chair’ for very long at all before he got down to business. He is friendly, but no nonsense. When I went in for my cleaning, from the time I sat in the chair to the time I walked out the door was about 25 minutes and my mouth felt very clean and my teeth looked just as good. When I had my filling, he didn’t give me a ‘numbing shot’ that I didn’t need and just got down to business. He made sure the filling was comfortable and kept polishing until it fit right. This whole process took very little time (maybe a half hour?) and was pain free; I almost fell asleep! When I have gotten fillings done before, I’ve death gripped anything within reach and suffered through the (seemingly) hours of torture, but with Dr. Fisher I had a different experience for sure!
I am so happy I found Dr. Fisher and I look forward to recommending him to friends!

I had not been to the dentist in over a year. I had always gone to my childhood dentist until I made friends with a dentist… she then moved to Canada and her replacement only wanted as much money from me as possible (I have never had a cavity in my adult life yet needed a lot of work done — um, no). So, I started a new job that I knew I was going to be at for a while and thought it was time to find a new dentist. I found Dr Fisher and was pleasantly surprised. He looked at my mouth and knew that I take care of my teeth. He did the cleaning which was totally pain free and sent me on my way saying I should just come back in 6 months. I was so afraid he’d find a tiny speck and tell me I needed a filling or some sort of work. the best part is his office is located in my backyard. I found a new dentist! yay

I have been seeing Dr. Fisher for almost 6 years now and I have never walked out of there disappointed, or feeling like I got ripped off, or let down. He’s just the nicest guy ever, very gentle and he actually does the cleanings himself, which was something new to me!
His staff are also very friendly and always make you feel comfortable the minute you walk in the door.
My insurance covers most everything so I can’t comment much on pricing, but a few years back Dr. Fisher brought to my attention that I was grinding my teeth when sleeping, so he fit me for an Invisalign retainer for less than $ 100 (vs those horrible, bulky, spit-​out-​worthy night guards). 2 – 3 years later it is still working like a charm, with no need for a replacement any time soon.

Dr. Fisher is a nice dentist. I like that they have digital X-​Rays and they do a good job cleaning your teeth. My latest dentist did need to smooth out one of the fillings he had given me, not a big deal, just thought I’d note it here.
The issue I have, and which is why we had to find a new dentist, it is impossible to get in here without either waiting a long time, or having them reschedule.
Without fail, of my 2 appointments, the first I was kept waiting an hour, and the second about 45 minutes. I understand emergencies happen, but why the heck is it every time?!
My husband encountered worse. For his cleaning, he waited 45. He had 2 cavities, and made an appointment to come back. They kept him waiting so long for that appointment, they could only fill one and made him schedule to come back again for the second.
Then, he made an appointment 6 months in advance for a teeth cleaning, showed up, and was kept waiting 45 min. He was told it would be at least another 20 – 30 minutes at which point he left. Unacceptable!
Also, they have some pretty crazy patients here. I sat in the waiting room with a guy screaming and moaning about his wait. I mean, trust me, I understand why he’s unhappy, but WTF? It was seriously freaking me out. Then, another time a man was talking to himself over and over about how he hates pregnant woman. I was the only other person in the waiting room… and I’m not pregnant. Weird weird WEIRD!

I finally had a good, no great, dental experience!
Only took years of searching, but whoohoo for this place!
Dr. Swartz rocks!

This is the best dental office in the world (okay, maybe Chicago-​land area). Dr. Fisher and his partner, Dr. Swartz, are awesome. Fisher just a little more quiet than Swartz, both but quality. They know what they’re doing, do it easily, and at a minimal cost. What more could you ask for? If you are looking for a dentist, don’t hesitate to go here.

I have been coming here for 10 years and refer all my friends to DR F.
Fabulous dentist NOT PAINFUL, and friendly to boot!

Hours are convenient, but I did not have a good experience. The dentist did the cleaning himself (I was used to dental hygienists doing the cleaning at my previous place) and did a poor job at that. He cause my gums to bleed quite a bit and I was afraid he was going to rip my front tooth out with the tartar scrapper. He did not ask about my dental history, rather he made assumptions and gave advice without a thorough consultation. He seemed more interested in chatting than real dental health care.

I thought that Dr. Fisher was very friendly and had an easy-​going disposition. He did a good job with the bonding and it has lasted much longer than the last time it was fixed.

Very attentive and awesome dentist. When my oral surgery experience went bad and I needed a second opinion, they let me come in, no appointment and took care of my dry socket.
