PATIENT REVIEWS

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

★★★★★

I have been going to Dr Schumachers office for 7 or 8 yrs now. They have always been great about scheduling and reminders. All staff that I have encountered have been pleasant and polite. Let’s face it nobody enjoys going to a dentist but they have made the experience a bit less nerve wracking. Dr Schumacher has always been upfront about every procedure I’ve need. I needed a root canal and she referred me to another place that only did root canals, they were amazing.

★★★★★

I started visiting Dr Schumacher’s practice when she was in the basement of the Sears tower. She and her staff care deeply and have always been polite, professional and pleasant. She and her staff have managed my pain better than any dentist I have had before. I no longer work in the downtown of Chicago but, I still make the trip for my appointments as I truly appreciate her and her staff

★★★★★

I have seen Dr. Schumacher for the past three years and have enjoyed the quality, professional, and honest work by her and the staff. I will continue being a patient due to her wealth of knowledge and skills as well as the fact that she does not promote unnecessary procedures. Thank you!

★★★★★

After more than a year of avoiding my dental health while using the pandemic as an excuse, I made it a point to return to Dr. Schumacher’s office. What a pleasant experience! My cleaning took longer than usual due to my self-imposed neglect, but the team was wonderful, professional, and  relentless in getting my teeth back in tip top shape. I highly recommend Dr. Schumacher and her amazing team. They make me look forward to going to the dentist!

★★★★★

Laurie is awesome. She takes the time to make sure she explains any concerns you may have and only provides necessary treatment. I’ve seen friends using other dentists getting ripped off. This is NOT the case with Laurie. She is a great provider who has her patients best interests at the forefront of everything she does. In addition, the entire staff is friendly and generally interested in your wellbeing. If you need a great dentist, go see Laurie. She’ll take great care of you.

★★★★★

Dr. Schumacher is an excellent dentist, I have been going to her for many years. She is smart, professional and her office has all the latest technology and tools. My recent hygienist Margaret was thorough, efficient, explained all the steps and treatments and very professional. Same for all the staff I’ve had the pleasure of seeing. I highly recommend Dr. Schumacher.

★★★★★

Dr. Schumacher and staff take good care of me. Very friendly and they do an excellent job. I haven’t had any issues since I’ve been going to Dr. Schumacher. The best thing I like about this dentist office is when you make an appointment, you are called in the back at the time of your appointment providing you get there on time. I love it. Big thanks to the offce. Marie

★★★★★

No one loves going to the dentist, but my children finally don’t complain about going. Dr. Schumacher and her assistant, Katie, actually made going to the dentist enjoyable. They are friendly, compassionate, and they made the whole experience of going to the dentist pleasant. The office is very clean and the entire staff is welcoming. I would highly recommend this practice to everyone.

★★★★★

I just had my first appointment here and it was a great experience. I was able to fill out all of the paperwork digitally ahead of time so no need for 30 min of pen and clipboard at the office. My appointment started on time and the hygienist, Dina, was thorough, informative, and friendly. Dr. Schumacher was friendly and informative as well. I’m glad to have found a great dentistry!

★★★★★

Just switched over after being with another dentist for 10 years.  Was very impressed with how professional and friendly everyone was.  My appointment began promptly when I was scheduled and they were very clear with explaining every part of the procedure.  The hygienist and doctor were patient to answer all the questions I had.  The are all vaccinated but still follow strict Covid protocol which was reassuring.  Very easy to schedule my follow up appointment quickly. Would recommend highly.

★★★★★

Dr Schumacher and her staff are excellent. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist. Her office is exceptionally clean and her staff is very friendly. Dr. Schumacher is very knowledgeable; she took her time explaining everything to me and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Schumacher’s office.

★★★★★

I’ve had a couple of dentists in Chicago and Laurie’s practice is by far the best. The location is great for getting dental work done during the work day, which means I don’t have to take an entire day off or work from home. I’ve never had more than a couple minutes’ wait in the office, and they do thorough work quickly, getting me back in the office in no time. I can’t imagine why I’d ever switch to another dentist.

★★★★★

I had a great experience at Dr. Schumacher’s office and the staff was exceptional! Gina made me feel very comfortable, and was extremely thoughtful and considerate. She would stop periodically to ensure I wasn’t in any pain, and we enjoyed some Chicago sports banter! Dr. Schumacher then came in to review some results with me and provided me with thorough explanations. They really took away the apprehension I felt going into the appointment. I highly recommend their office!

★★★★★

I’ve been going to Dr. Schumacher for 5 years because she’s great! They use modern technology (water cleaning vs metal scraping on teeth), so there’s less discomfort in a cleaning and they don’t push unnecessary procedures to rack up fees – just excellent oral care. I get cleanings 3x per year because they’re great and my teeth are squeaky clean.

★★★★★

What a great team Dr. Schumacher has! From the reception staff to the hygienist team and special shout out to DA Katie who is awesome! I’ve had many dentists over the years but Dr. Schumacher tops them all. Super detail oriented, she takes the time to tell you exactly what she will be doing and makes the process seamless. My son recommended me to Dr. Schumacher and I now have my wife going as well! All satisfied customers!! Thanks for a job well done!!

★★★★★

I had a filling fall out that a previous dentist did. It wasn’t prepped well in the first place, and since switching to Dr. Schumacher they have been taking great care in watching it. So when it fell out while flossing this weekend they got me in ASAP and repaired me tooth. I was sore for not even a day (which is impressive because I think the filling was in a funky place) and was eating solid foods instantly. Dr. S and her team gave me quality advice on products I should buy and use (not just what they sell). Her team is well organized and I appreciate everything they do! Extremely clean and friendly place. This is an efficient and calming for those who dislike dental visits. COVID precautions are in place and I felt safe there (hospital quality air filters in each area, clean facilities, wearing masks properly). Thank you for always keeping me on track with my dental needs!

★★★★★

It had been a while since my last cleaning, and Dr. Schumacher and Margaret, her dental hygienist, were very helpful in taking care of my teeth and doing it in a safe way during COVID! Every step in the process, from x-rays to cleaning, fluoride, and Dr. Schumacher’s examination were smooth and pleasant as a patient. I would definitely recommend this office!

★★★★★

Finding a solidly reviewed in-network option is tricky and I commend the friend who directed me to their office. Submitted my paperwork a day prior to my first appointment so walked in and was greeted nicely, had a quick wait and was taken on time. I had Taylor as my hygienist and was incredibly impressed with how fluidly she was able to tell me exactly what she was doing and checked off all the boxes very professionally. My teeth feel incredible. Dr. Schumacher came to check that everything looked good, made sure to ask if I had any questions and confirmed the opinions that Taylor had already determined. Still sitting in the chair I was able to book my next appointment and headed out with a goodie bag. I will be recommending her to my coworkers and friends as I was 10/10 happy with my service.

★★★★★

I needed a new dentist when I moved to Chicago and was recommended to Dr. Schumacher by a friend. Gina was a phenomenal hygienist and worked with great detail on my cleaning. The process Dr. Schumacher uses is much more advanced than my previous dentist, and the difference is noticeable. Dr. Schumacher made a point of coming in to talk through everything with me and inspect the work, and was much more thorough than I am used to. All in all, I am completely satisfied with my new dental home in Chicago and would strongly recommend coming in for a visit!

★★★★★

Since the earliest days of the onset of COVID and being required to work from home since, I’ve continued to make the 30 mile trek into The City to Dr. Schumacher’s office for my routine checkups, trips that have been marked on occasion by torrential downpours, lake-effect blizzards, frigid temps, and more recently, heavy traffic. Why? Especially when other such providers are so plentiful much closer to home? Answer: The Service! To say that it has been excellent would be an understatement. Dr. Schumacher and her staff have been superb in every respect, from the clarity of their communications about the status of my enameled chompers to accommodating my tardiness on one occasion to seating me promptly on another when traffic was more cooperative. Admittedly, I’m not one who looks forward to visits to any health care provider, but Dr. Schumacher and her staff have made each and every visit stress free!

★★★★★

This is my first dentist visit since moving to Chicago. This dental office is clean, sleek, and easy to find (located on 6th floor). All the staff were completely professional and kind (I interacted with 3 for my visit). They do all sorts of dental related things other than cleaning like invisalign, teeth whitening, fillings, etc. It’s nice to find a place that does it all. Makes things super convenient.

★★★★★

Absolutely love Dr. Schumacher and her entire staff. Have been going to her now for almost 7 years and it has been a very enjoyable experience. They keep up to date on all the latest technologies and also the look and feel of their office is almost spa like… seriously though! Highly recommend on all accounts!

★★★★★

I loved it here! Such an up to date office with new technology I have not seen. Marissa sat me on time and took my xrays..they were painless! Margaret came in to do my cleaning, so nice and friendly and always letting me know what she was about to do. Loved Dr Schumacher, very knowledgeable and not trying to push unnecessary dental work. 10/10

★★★★★

My children and I had a wonderful experience going to Dr. Schumacher!!! They were very kind and considerate of me and my children. The staff were very courteous and very thorough and they got us in and out in a reasonable time. Andrea at the front desk was very helpful in making sure that we got in at a decent time and getting me and my children all scheduled together. I highly recommend Dr. Schumacher to everyone.

★★★★★

I have been so fortunate to put together the absolutely best health care team here in Chicago that I have ever had, with Dr. Schumacher and her INCREDIBLE staff rounding off my final provider.   It was easy to get an appointment and everyone there was kind, great at explaining what they were doing, and so careful to make me feel comfortable.  Extreme shout out to Gina for being the BEST hygienist.  I felt with my teeth feeling so clean and without my mouth hurting.  She even somehow managed to perfectly nail the balance of not stopping every two seconds but without me feeling as if I was going to gag or my jaw was going to fall off.  I am excited to feel comfortable and confident in my dental care going forward.  Thank you!

★★★★★

Dr. Schumaker and her staff are great and most recently, have been very accommodating to my personal situation. I have been going here for over 3 years now and enjoy how clean the office is and that they’re up to date with the latest technology to use. I always appreciate Gina cleaning my teeth because she makes it feel like I am not even at the dentist; extremely gentle:)

★★★★★

As a new patient, I was able to get scheduled within a week. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There was no wait time for my appointment other than me completing all the new patient paperwork. My dental assistant, Michelle, was very nice and professional. She explained everything clearly and was very communicative during my visit. As someone who commutes by walking, it was super easy to find as well. I would recommend Dr. Schumacher’s office to anyone in the south loop area!

★★★★★

I visited Dr. Schumacher’s office for the first time today and was blown away by the level of friendliness, professionalism and care they provided. As soon as I entered I was greeted by a very nice and friendly receptionist. I also appreciated how clean and organized the office is. Margaret was my dental hygienist and I was extremely satisfied with my cleaning. She was so friendly and gentle but also very efficient throughout the entire cleaning. There was also an assistant named Katie who would check up on me to make sure I wasn’t feeling any pain or discomfort or that I didn’t need anything. She was very knowledgeable and kind throughout my entire time there! I met Dr. Schumacher after my cleaning and she was very friendly and answered all of my questions. I can’t wait to go back to see Margaret, Katie and Dr. Schumacher for my next cleaning in 6 months! Dr. Schumacher and her team are the best group I have ever dealt with when it comes to a dental office!!

★★★★★

I have been at this office multiple times now. I am very pleased with the location of the office and their hours, since it’s very close to the train station and they are open before 9am. I was able to receive my first check-up by Dr. Schumacher at 8am with her assistant (Katie) being present. Margaret, the dental hygienist, took the X-rays very quickly and cleaned my teeth.All my teeth, even the back ones felt very clean with all of the plaque removed. I was satisfied with Dr. Schumacher’s tooth crown recommendations, since she explained to me all the options. I am looking forward to my next visit.

★★★★★

Dr. Schumacher, her office, and her staff are great and very professional. The office is very clean, upgraded and efficient. They have added air purifiers and upgraded ventilation and made me feel very safe during this pandemic. They also adhere to the social distancing and mask mandate but still get me in and out very quickly. I would definitely recommend Dr. Schumacher and her office for anybody looking for a new and long term dentist in the loop.

★★★★★

Dr. Schumacher has been my dentist for over 10 years and she and the entire staff are wonderful! Most of my life I have had anxiety about going to the dentist, but today when I had my appointment I thought about the fact that I no longer feel that way. Their professionalism, care, and kindness have taken those fears away. It is wonderful! They have given me excellent care,  they are always very upfront about costs, they have excellent COVID protocols, the appointment scheduling process is very smooth. I would highly recommend Dr. Schumacher to anyone!

★★★★★

I’ve been a long time patient of Dr. Schumacher’s practice (7 years).  Dr. Schumacher and her team are always kind, knowledgeable and eager to help address any questions/concerns I have.  The entire office does a phenomenal job wearing masks 100% of the time with appropriate measures for patients to be spatially distanced.  I fully intend on continuing as a long time patient.  Thank you for everything the team does to help ensure best dental practices alongside general health and wellbeing.

★★★★★

Dr. Schumacher’s office is great! I am new to Chicago and was nervous about finding a dentist that I liked as much as the one I had been seeing for the past two decades back in my hometown. Dr. S is very easy to talk to and the technology in her office is impressive. I will continue to see her (especially because she’s a 10 minute walk from my work location!)

★★★★★

Trying hard to head off some possible future (dental) issues, Dr. Schumacher cut to the chase and gave me some direction. Now at least I know what my options are and I get to get started! Always appreciate her warmth and professionalism and she DOES hire good staff! Also, her relationships with others in the industry (shout out to Dr. Gadia) makes it possible to attack things from the best possible direction.
