Barbara Pintz, DDS

Dr Pintz and her staff are great. As it is almost the end of 2015, my family has been going to Dr Pintz for about 7 years. The staff is courteous and very nice. Dr Pintz is very personable and takes time to explain the procedure and future needs for our best dental health. The only stress I ever have… is when I need to decide what color toothbrush to take home after my scheduled dental cleanings~~! As an added benefit, Taco Bell is just around the corner… so I always treat myself to s SOFT taco after an appointment with this fine group of people!!!

We have had nothing but positive experiences at Dr. Pintz office. The staff is outstanding… and I mean, really outstanding. Very friendly, informative and make sure that the procedures go along well and as comfortable as possible.
The entire family goes here and we’ve been coming here for the past 3 years with no issues.
As for me, I didn’t stay on top of my dental maintenance and was a bit apprehensive in going to the dentist. But, on my first visit all apprehensions vanished. Dr. Pintz and her staff set up an easy schedule to get me back on track.
Thanks Dr. Pintz & a huge shout out to Savanna!

Our family loves Dr. Pintz and her staff! We have been patients of Barbara’s since 2005. Her staff is friendly and professional, and she is the best dentist we’ve ever known. Her office is comfortable and warm, and her manner is reassuring and kind. While being her patients, my children, husband and I have had remarkable dental health improvement, and gentle care when we’ve faced fillings or chipped teeth. The highest standards of hygiene are practiced here, and digital x-​rays, and record keeping are utilized. She is extra careful to address my pain concerns during a filling, and has been so kind to my boys when they come for cleanings or fillings. We have always been treated with the greatest respect. I have recommended Dr. Pintz to my family, friends, and neighbors. After past experiences with mediocre dentists, I am so grateful to find Dr. Barbara Pintz and have her as my dentist. I highly recommend her and her staff.

This office holds hours that were difficult for my school age children and my husband to manage. When I requested that my family’s x-​rays be emailed to the new doctor’s office I was charged «for processing». The processing consisted of attaching files that already belong to me to an email. Not to mention the files were already contained in an electronic format. I was told they typically charge $ 20 per person but since I balked at the idea, they charged $ 20 for the family. My husband had to make a special trip to the office in order to pay the fee before any files would be sent. Our aggravation was met with «well, we can just not send them if you prefer».
Since this post, the office contacted me to say they are destroying my check and reconsidering their policy.

This office was the absolute worst and I will not be going back. Long story, but I’ll just say that the Dr. and the front office staff need major lessons on people skills. They are concerned with only two things: Making money and keeping appointments so they don’t lose money.
I have found an office in Gurnee with Dr. Victor Lao on Nation’s Drive. He is awesome. The staff is nice and it’s always an easy and pleasant visit every time I go. Dr. Lao really cares about his patients and knows what he’s doing when it comes to dentistry.
