PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:

Amy R. from River Forest, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have my fourth child going through braces with Battistoni and Beam. They have provided excellent service every time. They are always on target with their plan of action for the braces. They are pleasant and friendly every time I am in their office. They are great with getting you in when there is a problem with the braces. They are accommodating to your schedule. I cannot say enough about all the people that work there. I would highly recommend them.

★★★★★

Such a wonderful team of professionals. Make my daughter comfortable every time she visits. Work smart, fast and treat kids with respect—the doctors and assistants tell the kids exactly what is needed and why, so they understand what’s happening. And during the pandemic, they have taken extraordinary measures to all employees and patients safe. Very impressive!

★★★★★

Was there for a consultation and had a wonderful experience. A little nervous as an adult looking for orthodontic treatment, but everyone was very friendly, yet professional. Felt comfortable discussing their different treatment options available to meet my needs. I look forward to my next appointment with Battistoni Beam Polivka Orthodontics.

Merryl B. from Oak Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Outstanding customer service with an understanding of how to meet the needs of the patient. The office is welcoming, efficient and flexible for working parents who want to be a part of their children’s care plan. They are patient and not quick to intervene unless the child is developmentally and physically ready for it.

★★★★★

There is not enough words to say how happy I’m with this location and the staff. They go above and beyond to make my son feel safe, calm and that he understands what they will be working on. Also to a worried mom. The orthodontist and the staff are so amazing, caring. I definitely recommend this location.

Nancy C. from Elmwood Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Where do I begin as to why I LOVE the office of Drs. Battistoni and Beam?! Both of my boys had their braces put on on the same day, two years ago. One is done, and the other is close to removal! The staff are all extremely professional, polite, and they always have a smile for you when you walk in! The entire staff does whatever it takes to accommodate the patient AND the family. They will work with you on appointments, and if there is an emergency visit needed on a non-business day, such as what  we had experienced on a Sunday, they will meet you at the office to make the patient comfortable until the next scheduled visit! The office is extremely clean and very inviting, with every season and holiday represented with decorations! I couldn’t ask for anything more! I truly feel I have made lifelong friends within the staff of “B&B”! I trust the Battistoni & Beam staff with my children’s teeth, and you should do the same! Oh, and they not only work with children…I’m thinking of having them take care of my teeth straightening as well!

Gina D. from Elmwood Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

We picked them after a few initial meetings with some local ortho’s for my daughters braces and we couldn’t be happier! The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Any questions my daughter or I had were answered. I always felt they were thorough, explaining to both of us what they did and what the next appointment would be for. The office is super clean and even during Covid my daughter always felt safe. We had two emergencies with her braces and they fit us in right away. She even got her braces off a month or two ahead of schedule! I highly recommend.

★★★★★

My daughter has been going to this location for over a year now and we couldn’t be happier. They’re friendly and knowledgeable, they speak directly to hear so she can answer their questions. The office is clean and they are very fast. Her appointments are always on time and we’re never waiting long, plus it’s very easy to schedule the next appointment and if you have an emergency they get you in right away. Now with COVID-19 their protocols to keep everyone safe make myself and my daughter feel comfortable. I would highly recommended them!

John Lim (Source: Google)

★★★★★

I’ve had an excellent experience for over a year, but am posting now because of how well they have responded to the COVID pandemic. They have reopened quickly and efficiently, and most importantly, have done so in a very safe and thoughtful manner. They’ve been very good at following recommended safety protocols, and have been able to physically distance while still being friendly. All this, while still providing excellent orthodontic care. This is no small achievement, so kudos to this entire office – great job, and thank you!

Rose K. from Darien, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Staff and Dr. Battistoni were all so friendly and helpful when my son got his braces on last Wednesday. They took the time to explain things to him and the doctor spoke to me so we both knew what to expect. My son is the second child to have braces at Battistoni and Beam and I trust them completely

K W. from La Grange Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

We have been very happy with the practice.  My son had his braces put on over a year ago.  They were very accommodating to payment plans.  I had HSA account over 2 years to make it easier on our pocket book.  My son has been anxious about his orthodox treatments and the doctors have been extremely helpful with his individual needs.  It’s a bustling practice with a lot of incentive programs for the teenage population that tends to be non compliant with treatments.

Bozena Palas (Source: Google)

★★★★★

My son just started coming here and we couldn’t be happier. All the wonderful things I heard from others about this place are true. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly, explained everything very well and ensured we left with no questions. I am looking forward to next visits and seeing the amazing results.

Sheila C. from Anna Maria, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

All 3 of our children have had braces and we have been extremely happy with all 3 experiences at Battistoni and Beam. Super efficient, professional, skilled, kind, and helpful, plus scheduling is easy and convenient. We love that your office caters to kids without the “pediatric feeling”, is very generous and involved in the community, and my daughter thought it was fun to trick or treat at Dr. Battistoni’s house and get a toothbrush 🙂

Violet K. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I am in my second round of orthodontia, and after my initial orthodontist refused to take on my case because “he doesn’t take his failed cases”, I went to Battistoni & Beam. I am so glad I did! Their staff are very experienced, helpful, and kind. Dr. Battistoni took my complicated case and my treatment is going swimmingly. I might even finish earlier than expected! They transformed a horrible experience (who would want to have braces more than once in their life!) into a painless, inexpensive process. I could not recommend them more!

Brian M. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

A fantastic orthodontics practice. The team of doctors and assistants, and front and back office staff, work seamlessly together to provide a superior level of service and top class experience. The Battistoni & Beam Practice provides a very high level of efficient service on an utterly consistent basis. The Practice runs like clockwork. The staff is customer focused, very calm and obviously enjoys working in a great environment. The relaxed vibe transmits to the patients.

★★★★★

They are the best from the front office to the docs! They have cared for me and been there through my adult braces journey! Even my 2nd time around I would still recommend they are there for you!

John P. from Western Springs, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

i have been a patient of drs. battistoni and beam at their la grange office for over two years, and i could not be more pleased. my braces were recently removed after two years, and i’ll be in “maintenance” mode with my retainers for another two years. this office does offer other options, besides “standard” braces, that may shorten treatment time. you’ll have an initial consultation with one of the doctors to determine the best course of action. the doctors, assistants [who make the actual adjustments after consulting with one of the doctors] and staff have always been very professional and courteous. when my braces were on, my appointments were every seven weeks or so. now, with my retainers, i’ll visit every six months. lastly, one of the best things about this practice is their efficiency. i have always been called in on time for my appointments; this is an experience that i’ve never had in any other doctor’s office. once in, my appointments generally last about fifteen minutes. all in all, this whole experience has been as painless, in every way, as could be expected.

★★★★★

I have my fourth child going through braces, and every experience through the years at Battistoni & Beam has been great. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They are always on time. They get the braces on and off in the stated amount of time. And my children’s teeth end up looking great in the end. I cannot say enough about their office and everyone that works there. It’s a really great place.

Deanna W. from Schiller Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Never have a complaint.  They are all always courteous and personable.  Love being there.  We have been waiting for her Sure Smile wires and when they came in they called me right away and has us come in.  They were all getting ready to leave but they took their time and had such patience with us.  We cannot have enough good things to say.

Ann D. from Oak Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Both of my children have had a variety of orthodontia at Battistoni and Beam. I can’t imagine taking them anywhere else. From coordinators that help take care of all the insurance paperwork, to the cheerful and helpful receptionists, the fantastic nurses and the amazing doctors, this office has it all. My kids love going to Battistoni and Beam, which is quite a feat for any doctor’s office.

Joni Nieckula Acamovic (Source: Facebook)

★★★★★

This is our second round with BBP and it’s just as wonderful as it was a few years ago with our older daughter. Everyone is so friendly and very passionate about their work. The doctors and staff keep patients informed on what they’re doing and why. You know expected outcomes and timeframes. Also, they’re available in case of an emergency. An added bonus is the incentive program they have for their patients! I would highly recommend Battestoni Beam Povlika Orthodontics!

Bogin T. from Hinsdale, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My experience at this practice was second-to-none. Drs. Battistoni and Beam were very cordial in both explaining and operating the process of braces. Patients are always treated with a smile as they walk in, and the respectful and gleeful attitude stretches from the front desk to the assistants and doctors. There is even music in the background to make the patient feel at ease. You will not find a better orthodontic practice in the area than this one.  Drs. Battistoni and Beam will be sure that you leave with a straight smile. They have that goal with every single patient that walks through their front door.

★★★★★

B&B operates with utmost professionalism. The office is run like clockwork. My daughters have been patients since June 2019 and every appointment has been quick and on time. The doctors and technicians are informative and considerate. The doctors thoroughly evaluated all options for my daughter’s treatment. I’m very comfortable with the treatment plans and treatment

Diana D. from Melrose Park, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Just had my braces taken off right before Christmas. It was a surprise and what a awesome Christmas gift it was! I can’t stop smiling because now I have a beautiful smile! The staff is so nice and the Dr.’s are very good. Thank you again Dr.’s B&B and staff.  I tell everyone I know that wants to get braces to come here!

Jeff K. from East Lyme, CT (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Hi-tech and caring office!  Drs’ Battistoni and Beam, along with their entire team are focused on providing their patients with a great experience and most importantly a great smile! They utilize the newest technology, including Damon Braces, Suresmile and Invisalign to ensure that treatment times are shorter than average and the results are fantastic. As their website awesomebraces.com indicates – they are truly awesome!

Lauren A. from AZ, AZ (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

It’s a pleasure to visit the office of these doctors. The staff is friendly, timely, and professional at all times, doing their best to make each patient comfortable and at ease. As a patient, you are educated regarding your particular needs, various treatment options available to achieve your goals, and finally realistic payment plans to make your choice practical. These doctors and their staff treat each patient as as a unique individual deserving of a beautiful smile!

Laura N. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Bridget is my fourth child to go through this process with Dr Battistoni. She is only 8 and was really nervous about getting her expander. Holly and Dr Battistoni. Both were so kind and so calm with her. They explained everything from what they were doing to what she may feel during the process. I felt like he spoke to her as if he was speaking to his own daughter. She was fine the whole time because they were so calm and caring. A huge thank you to them for making her comfortable!

★★★★★

Once again, Battistoni, Beam & Polivka knocked it out of the park. This was our first visit back to the office since the beginning of the Covid situation. They have an excellent, quick, safe and smooth system in place. We pulled up in our car, called the number on the sign and were immediately ushered in for temperature checks and a quick wait in their clean, socially-distanced waiting area. Treatment for both myself and my son was a breeze. All of the staff were upbeat and happy to be back at work! I was then escorted out the back door, so as not to cross paths with any incoming patients. I will be bringing my youngest for his first ortho consult very soon!!

★★★★★

This is a very nice place to get your treatment. Very nice people in the front office and they are taking all the precautions with regards COVID. The assistants are very competent in managing equipment especially the Doctor. I moved from Oregon where I started Invisalign treatment. In that clinic I was hurt a couple times due to poor training or maybe inexperienced staff. I feel that I’m in better hands with the Battistoni Beam Polivka Orthodontics. The staff is well prepared.

Christina R. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Clean and modern office (we visit the La Grange location). Appointments run on time. All of the staff are very friendly and Dr. Battistoni is very patient with the kids. My son was afraid there’d be a lot of pain getting braces, but everyone in the office put his fears at ease. They provided good education about the care and maintenance of his new braces and sent us home with great reference materials and samples. The billing/payment plan is simple and easy to manage. My son LOVES the reward and incentive program they have through patient rewards hub. It seems like each time we’re there and look around we find something cute or new. You can take silly pics in the waiting room with their different mouth ‘props’, play an old school arcade game, read their ‘star patient’ bulletin board that showcases and acknowledges their patients’ achievements, they even had a questionnaire before father’s day asking them why their dad was awesome. We were surprised when it was mailed to us and arrived the day before Father’s day. I love that they provide the kids with sunglasses when they are in their chairs, because who wants to stare up at a fluorescent light panel? Not me! I witnessed staff cleaning and sterilizing the patient chairs as well as the washing and sterilization of the doctors’ tools (we assume it’s always done, but I took extra comfort in actually seeing it). I even love that they use good quality soap in the bathroom (silly, but I take note of everything)! One of my favorite things is the tooth brushing station. They get it. These are mostly kids being treated. They are coming in at all times of the day, and may not have brushed within the last 5 minutes. They provide everything for them to clean up their mouths before their appointment. Their hours are quite accommodating to school schedules as well. Because of all of these things (and I’m sure I skipped a few), I didn’t bother shop around and price compare. This practice is the total package. The fantastic personnel and the attention to every single detail makes us feel good about being here and gives me confidence that the care my son is receiving is top notch. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Nicholas P. from Berwyn, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My experience with Battistoni and Beam was exceptional. The dental care was top notch, the facilities were clean and welcoming, and they accommodated the appointments to my busy high school schedule. The staff was very friendly, they all knew my first name by the end of the treatment. And also, the staff was able to accommodate my early removal of my brace due to my appointment to West Point. My braces were scheduled to come off in September but had to be removed by June for boot camp, and doctors were able to adjust my treatment accordingly without cutting corners. I am grateful I received my orthodontist treatment from Battistoni and Beam.

★★★★★

So far we are loving the time and care they take with my nine year old son. He was very nervous but the staff took the time to carefully explain every step. After his procedure the doctor personally called to check on him and even left some extra wax at the front desk to help alleviate his pain. We know we made the right choice at Battistoni Beam Polivka Orthodontics!

Amber Rizzo (Source: Google)

★★★★★

Super excited I finally got braces! All the associates at Battistoni & Beam are great and make me feel super comfortable. Everyone is very honest and informative throughout every step. I am confident in my journey with Battistoni & Beam for the next 2 years, and I am so excited to see the smile I have always dreamt of.

Maya S. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Just started my child’s journey with braces but so far everything has gone smoothly. Treatment coordinator, Jackie, was very responsive to my questions sent over email prior to our first appointment. The staff is very thorough in explaining every step of what they were doing.

Jana S. (Source: Google)

★★★★★

Everyone who works in the office is so nice, you can tell they enjoy their jobs! The office is clean, very comfortable and very inviting. The procedure area is clean and well laid out so that my son isn’t placed in a sterile room waiting to be seen. We are always seen promptly. I feel good about the money we’ve spent with Battistoni and Beam. They always give me an update on my son’s progress. If he has an issue, they are very accommodating and find a convenient and immediate opening for him. I highly recommend this practice!.
