PATIENT REVIEWS

I been going to this place for the past 8 years and I love it. They are friendly, the place is clean and they have amazing doctors, but Dr.Obey is my favorite. I recently brought my daughter here and she felt the same, comfortable, happy, respected. They talked her thru the process made her understand what they were doing to her tooth. We highly recommend this place.

Everyone in this dental office is wonderful. The dentist gives us the best care. After transferring from another office, Dr Obeid was able to identify and treat gum and tooth issues our previous dentist was not. Dr Obeid is kind and thorough. His team of hygienists are friendly and gentle. I highly recommend this office to any looking for high quality care with a sincere and kind touch.

I honestly owe my sanity to this dentist’s office! I knew from the moment I called and spoke with tiffany (hope I got her name right), that I was gonna be out of pain that day. She managed to get me in, within the hour,, with a the pandemonium going on in the city, for an extraction of my infected wisdom tooth. I had never been here before, and had no idea what to expect. I was called back promptly, by the nicest dental assistant ever, and within an hour, that bad tooth was out and by the time the numbing agents wore off, no more pain. A little sore, but no more pain. Due to my kidney disease, I have had to have several extractions and I wear partials. After such great care, I’m switching over to family dental for all my needs. I honestly cant thank them enough for what they did for me and my family. I hadn’t slept or eaten in days because of my pain. Now, I’m back to caring for my family at 100 percent capacity! God bless you guys for everything.

To my favorite dentist, Dr. Nidal Obaid. Thank you for giving me my smile back! Dr. Nidal Obaid, DDS., is the best in dentistry. He has a great team of family and welcoming staff. They are all top of the line professionals, with superb workmanship, artistry and state of the art equipment. For the same day crowns & root canal. A lab on site, 3D Imaging, and TV/DVD for his patients to watch while waiting, or just to relax, if they wish. He has other Hi-Tech equipment, as well, to achieve a precision alignment, which goes hand in hand with that perfect smile, Dr. Nidal did a full thorough dental exam every time I do visit him to me and my wife as well. He is very passionate in helping me and my wife. then he takes a full history for the current problem and tell you all the options available. He was amazing in helping his patients in their budget and whatever fit their budget. Contrary to other dentist who surprise you with a big bill when you leave their offices. I have had poor teeth for about 15 years, and have had many great dentists. None of which, have been better at the Mastery of Dentistry, than Dr. Nidal Obied . He has transformed all of my ugly teeth into a beautiful smile. Speaking the truth, with his great job in my both root canal, he saved me going to the specialist and I saved tones of money. I and my wife never been happy like that before..!!

The Doctor and his staff were the most honest dentist and staff I have ever been at. I had a cracked tooth and they did a filling exactly as I requested and at price that was acceptable . Pleasant staff. Only downside and it is not their fault , parking is a problem in the strip mall. However there is plenty of side street parking. Doctor Obeid and his office have gained two new clients today. Thank my oh for taking me as a walk-in and the prompt professional service

It was my first time at family dental of Lincoln and it was the best experience i have ever had at a dentist office!! It was quick and easy to make my appointment. The girls at the front desk were so sweet and helpful and answered all of my questions. The dental assistants and dentist made me feel so comfortable and relaxed! I will be going back here for my 6 month cleaning and check up. I strongly reccomend this dentist office!

Let me start off by saying that Dr. Nidal Obeid has been wonderful too me. I came to the office with a huge dental issues. After getting X-rays basically finding out I have severe bone loss due to periodontal disease. Hearing that at 34 was shocking. Dr. Obeid worked on a treatment plan with me and really explained everything in great detail. Since the initial visit in January I already had 11 teeth extractions and the same amount of bone grafts in 2 visits. I can’t believe it but it was painless and next day I was fine. The office is very clean,the girls at the front desk and the assistants have been so nice! I love Ania as she always puts me at ease and puts up with my endless calls before and after the procedures. They even call next day after the procedure to check on me. I basically feel like Dr. Obeid is giving me my life and confidence back and for that I am forever grateful! I still have another 12 extractions and bone grafts coming in a week. And after the bone grafts heal than implants.Yay! I still have ways to go,but will be writing an update soon.

Everything from the staff to DDS to the treatments, my teeth and oral health truly is thankful to be in their care. My jaw was killing me and my nerves in my gums were keeping me up ALL night and I couldn’t bare the pain. But Dr. Obeid found the root cause (no pun intended) and even discovered a future threat in my wisdom tooth. Prices are beyond fair and reasonable. He does accept Medicaid and just an overall great dentist. In my opinion, this clinic is the best one as far as the Northside of Chicago goes.

I just moved To Chicago and needed a new dentist so I decided to family dental of Lincoln a try. The staff was extremely accommodating and personal! They went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Dr.Obeid and Dr.kabar are very knowledgable and great at explaining the details of the dental procedures. I would highly recommend this practice to my family and friends.

Fantastic, painless experience. Went in after pulling out a filling (and a bit of tooth), and the Dr was able to repair quickly and painlessly. He communicated everything he was going to do and made sure I was absolutely numb before working – I didn’t even feel the heat of the drill. His staff was fantastic and made sure I was not uncomfortable.

I had a very pleasant experience at Dr. Obeid dental clinic. The front desk young ladies were very friendly and helpful. Dr. Obeid and his assistant made me feel at ease , listening and communicating well every step of the way . Great bedside manner and amazingly surprised of their smooth and gentle touch and handling!will highly recommend !

I hate going to the dentist, but Dr. Nidal Obeid made it so much better. He is very gentle with cavities and cleaning. Very nice guy and cares about making sure the patient is not in pain, and fully understands. I would recommend him to anyone who doesn’t like going to the dentist, because he will make it so you don’t mind going.

Dr. Nidal is very jolly and makes the patient at ease with his experience to handle and suggests the good approach for treatment. His hand is good at practice. I had a very good experience today,went to fix my bridge and he suggested me to get a new one or best option is to go for implant, i am thinking to go for the implant now

Excellent work 100% recommended. My son finished his brakets treatment here since he came from Mexico, in July of last year he continued here and today I finish the Brakets treatment. Congratulations to the Dentist Najjar, an excellent work and the people who participated starting from the entrance staff. And the best that they speak Spanish.

Eveytime I visit Family Dental of Lincoln I have so much fun. Seriously, Dr. Obeid is so nice and fun. He takes care of all my dental needs and makes good suggestions. Since I started coming here 6 years ago, I had two implants, one root canal, and endless fillings, and my teeth have never been this good. Dr. Obeid and his staff (especially Lina and Maggie) are very friendly and helpful. My family come here too and I recommend Dr. Obeid to everyone. Before I met him, I was bouncing from one dentist to another, he is the only dentist I trust with my teeth.

I was amazed with the service I received. I really do not like to write reviews, but this office deserve the beat feedback. I got the best customer service as soon I walk in. Everybody wearing special mask, hair covers and jacket. I notice air purifiers around the office. All that made me feel safe in this covid times. Dentist was very informative nad gentle during procedure. Everyone was so nice and retry to make me comfortable. I was very happy. Thank you, guys!

I saw Dr. Patel for my six month check up. Dr. Patel, and her entire team at Family Dental always make me feel so welcomed and secure in my dental health. Once again, they worked with me and my insurance so I could make half a payment on the day of my filling and the other half in a month. That means a lot to me, that a dentist’s office cares more about my cavity not getting worse more than they care about immediate payment in full. From the hygienist to the front desk office staff and Dr. Patel herself, all make me feel like I’m their only patient or certainly a very important patient. I think it’s probably obvious to anyone reading this, that I regularly recommend Family Dental to both my friends and to family members.

Positive experience. Quick clean and checkup; Didn’t try to up sell me anything like I’ve experienced and some other places. I waited beyond my appointment time to be serviced, but I understand priority of emergency patients, and they apologized and compensated me for the delay (voluntarily, I didn’t complain).

My second visit here. First visit went well and second visit I was there for a root canal and saw Dr. Obeid. He’s a super hero. . Worked with my difficult tooth which was badly infected in one visit and finished it. He did tell me initially he wasn’t going to finish but he did and put me at ease., my first root canal. I was hesitant to come in but he made me feel comfortable and no pain which was a big deal to me. He also explained everything before the procedure. The dental assistant was kind as well. Also the front desk was very pleasant. Great visit! Another visit for my two an a half year old. She didn’t cry once. Extremely happy with the service and everyone here. Also saw Dr.Chammae on for a different encounter and he is phenomenal, very kind and he genuinely cares and I love my smile now and of course more confident . They are the best team

I have been meaning to do this review but have been so so busy. I finally have the time so here goes… I previously gave this dental office five stars. I would give more upon my second visit if I could. Dr. Nidal Obeid. AMAZING. This man is so knowledgeable and explained the different options to me AND my daughter so that we clearly understood everything. Ok, so I get a call from my daughter’s school that her tooth chipped at school. It was a filling from when her tooth was previously broken. This was around noon, ok? Ok. So I immediately call and they tell me we need an evaluation on what needs to be done. Ya know.. like cap, crown, whatever because I am not a dentist and they can’t guess on the phone. They got her in that day at 5:30 for the evaluation. I pick my daughter up and we skip gymnastics to go there. She is hysterical. Her tooth is chipped and sharp.. she’s hungry but terrified to eat and some genius adult told her she may need her tooth removed and a fake one put in.. so anyways- we start the drive. About 45 minutes. We get there early but went in anyways to check in. We were almost an hour early and they saw us for the evaluation IMMEDIATELY. Like we sat less than 5 minutes. My daughter is terrified. She’s 9 with a VERY broken front top tooth -like broken in half- that she thinks has to be removed. The dental assistant was nice, she did the xrays and doctor was right in. He calmed my daughter immediately. He knew exactly what needed to be done, and told us what our next steps were… Like the whole plan.. like what to do immediately, when she should get braces, and the steps with her tooth even beyond that. Not only did he evaluate what had to be done, he did it right then. Her tooth was fixed and BEAUTIFUL before we were even scheduled to be there. He is an amazing dentist. Truly cares about his patients. My daughter was so happy I was almost in tears. It looked better than it had looked before she broke it. She was smiling and making snapchat and tiktok videos the whole way home to show it off. So overall: got us in same day, saw us early, did more than expected, and did an AMAZING job.

I was in need of a dentist my child had a chipped tooth and upon research I came upon this dental office. I called to schedule an appointment and the receptionist was friendly and accommodating , we were able to be scheduled the following week. The doctor and staff were friendly and seemed knowledgeable. When I arrived we were seated for about 10 minutes and then was seen. I was called to the back where the doctor explained to me the procedure. Twenty minutes later child came out tooth looking great. I would for sure recommend this office. Negative is that the office is small and a lot of the front office business/ gossip happens in the front where patients are present, and in earshot, staff just has to be a little mindful of office conversations. But overall nice experience

I had to make an appointment to check out the fillings I had gotten about a month ago. The appointment for the fillings went great. Staff is friendly, everything was done in a timely manner. No long waiting, they take their appointments on time! I was expierencing pain and sensitivity where I got the fillings. So I went in to get it checked out, the problem was minor and fixed in less than thirty minutes! Don’t remember the Dr’s name but she is very friendly and professional, they care about the patients in this office! Five stars, will get all my dental work done here!

Long time yelp reader, 1st time yelp reviewer. I can’t help but agree with the previous post here about wanting to give credit when due. Firstly, I want to say that I am pretty upset after coming here. YES PRETTY UPSET. Not because of the practice here, but because a year ago I went to a dentist not far from this location on Damen and Lawrence. I felt rushed there and it was not nearly as thorough as The Family Dental of Lincoln. I told the old dentist that I hadn’t been to the dentist in years. Yet they didn’t to take the time to go over my current state. That dentist didn’t even want to do my cleaning that day saying that the hygienist was too busy and we didn’t set aside time for it, but didn’t I schedule a new client appt???? I just felt he was not accommodating and I was being reasonable not demanding at all. I really felt as though they didn’t care.. I only bring up the previous visit because it set a precedent of my expectation going forward. Which have since changed completely after visit my new dentist here. Making an appointment was easy, the receptionist kindly called me back to let me know that a more ideal time that I asked for opened up. That was considerate. Working as a receptionist myself I understand the demand and pressure that comes with the job. However, you can tell the difference between people just doing their jobs and those who actually care about people. They absolutely care here. I walk in, everyone was kind and inviting. I fill out some paperwork and soon (5 minute wait) I am brought to the back and do not let appearances fool you. The office may be in an older strip mall, but unlike that other dental office that had spiffy floors and was easy to look at from the outside, The family Dental of Lincoln was equipped with higher end digital dental rads (xrays). Much appreciated because that saves time for the doctor to retake shots. Meaning they did not cut corners to provide, me, the patient comfort and ease. It is very clean, but cozy at the same time. Dr. Obeid was also very warm and inviting. His bedside manner was amazing, he is easy going and funny. He had my trust right from the start. I asked about my old silver fillings and if I should take them out to fill them with the newer materials available. He smiles, opens his mouth and shows me his silver fillings. He told me his dad did them when he was younger and he would only replace then if the space between the filling and the tooth ever got widen. What honestly, he didn’t push for me to get unnecessary procedures. He just said if I was bothered by the way that they looked or if they caused pain, there would be no reason to do anything to them. Hey if it isn’t broken, why fix it right?? To my surprise he did the cleaning himself!!! The last dentist, Tedford, didn’t even want their hygienist who offered to squeeze me in before lunch to do it… shows how much that guy cared, just wanted me to get billed didn’t care about my benefits being lost for the rest of the year since they had no appointments left for me to come back in for the cleaning. Speaking of which….. I had my wisdoms (just one side) taken out earlier this year and most of the coverage was used up at the time. The front office and Dr. Obeid worked with me to plan out my (siiiigh, newly found) cavities and a future wisdom tooth extraction. We planned out next years benefits and maximized what I had left this year…. I was over about 8-10 dollars, which is nothing for an out of pocket cost. Surprisingly they comped me and said not to worry if the amount wasn’t covered by my PPO. How nice, they did not have to do that but that was so much appreciated because it made me feel very well taken care of. Immediately after my cavities where taken out (10mins tops) I asked for their next available appointment because I was going home and making my roommate schedule it ASAP. Which she will once I get off the computer yelping… Thank you for such a great experience, taking a Saturday off to go to the dentist and actually enjoy the appointment. I even went to the Walgreens a block away and bought more floss… lol From the front desk to the assistant, who was AWESOME (I really wish I had gotten her name to give her credit) and of course to Dr. Obeid. Thank you for making a nightmare experience something to now look forward to.

I am blown away by the caliber of the staff at FD. We had a dental emergency at the last minute that was going to force us to cancel our move out of state and they were already fully booked for the night but Alejandra was so patient and kind and listened to me and she must’ve heard the desperation in my voice bc she put me on hold and when she came back on the line she had is in for 1 hour later and was apologizing in advance for any possible wait at might have bc they had 3 concentration booked before us! I have never had anyone apologize in advance for a wait when they could have told us that they were booked and sorry!!! THAT is so awesome. It restored my faith in humanity and proved to me that there are still some great people out there. I cannot recommend them more and if I could give them 100 stars I would. Empathy and kindness like that are so very rare. What a gift we were given by Alejandra and the Dr’s of FD. I won’t ever forget it. They are amazing.
