Patient Review 5:

I waited for this long to post a review, coz I wanted to make sure that the kind of service they provided first time persisted. And I am happy that it has. I have been there 5-6 times now and every time they meet my expectations. They do not double book which is one of the best things I like. They are hospitable and quite professional in their work. I accidentally discovered them on net and decided to try based on the excellent reviews posted. But I am glad, that I did. Overall, no hidden surprises.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: 9 months.

Patient Review 6:

I got lucky, by checking this website and not knowing what I was doing, other than perhaps looking for Drs schooled at good colleges and reviewed well, I lucked upon Dr Malin. She's is absolutely up to date on the most currently treatments, and is conservative in her approach to the work that needs to be done. I left feeling like I hit the jackpot, and considering the fact that I cry through my first appointments, this one as well, that's a lot to say. I feel like I'll have my teeth forever and they are in good hands.
About Hygienist: The hygienist could not have been kinder, more knowledgeable or more patient.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: never before.

Patient Review 7:

I went for a free evaluation to see if Invisalign was a valid option for me. I was very skeptical at first and thought the the overwhelming positive reviews might be the product of the office staff. I now see that after the appointment, patients receive an email and are asked to rate the Doctor and her staff . I am pleased to say that the staff is every bit as good as their reviews. They are very affable and attentive. I was offered a new magazine and a cold bottle of water while I was waiting. Dr. Malin is very knowledgeable and gave me a complete and honest evaluation. She examined each tooth and the surrounding gum. An assistant took notes and entered them on a computer. After a thorough evaluation, she referred me to an orthodontist and recommended traditional braces.
About Hygienist: I decided to stay for a cleaning. The hygienist, Joanna, gave me the best cleaning I have every had while I looked up at lighted picture panels through the sunglasses she provided for me. She gave me a "Goody bag " containing an Oral B toothbrush, crest toothpaste and floss. After my cleaning, Alex handed me a print out of my insurance benefits and answered some questions. All the little extras add up to one very pleasant experience. I was very impressed. This is the "A Team!"Pat (Buffalo Grove)

Patient Review 9:

Dr. Malin and her team are terrific. They practice conservative dentistry and never push you to procedures they don't think you need. She has recently added lasers to her practice, which I think is great. Her chair side manner is the best thing about her. She is warm and very concerned that you are comfortable and as pain free as possible. For children, she has a warm soft voice and reassuring manner.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: over 5 years.

Patient Review 14:

Dr. Malin is thorough, knowledgeable and very gentle. I've been going to her for a few years now and I always feel that I'm getting the best possible treatment. I love that she and her staff tell me what they're doing every step of the way. If something will be uncomfortable, they tell me what to expect. I can see that they work hard to build trust with their patients and that the details mean a great deal. I've never had to wait even once in the waiting room because they've reserved enough time to care for me and every patient thoroughly and carefully. I'm thrilled with the care I receive and would readily recommend Dr. Malin to my closest family and friends.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: 2 Years.

Dr. Malin is very thoughtful and knows her patients well. My kids (11,9 and 5) love coming here. If they hear "dentist" they are always ready to go. They especially like the goodie bags of toothbrush and toothpaste :-) The whole staff are very friendly and accommodating, always have a smile to give. There are tons of dental clinics near my place but I would rather trek the extra mile for a great service.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: eons!.

Dr. Malin and her staff are the best ! They are very positive and genuinly concerned about your teeth and you! My kids love her as do my husband and I . Even our grandparents who have taken to the kids to appointments comment on how warm and welcoming everyone is. Highly recommend Dr. Malin even to the dentist phobics out there. She will ease your fears.

Patient Review 20:

Dr. Malin is the best dentist I have ever been to. She makes me feel very comfortable. She makes me feel like a friend not just a patient. She asks about my kids and how my wife is doing. She explains to me exactly what she is doing and answers all of my questions, even the stupid ones. The best way that I can explain how much I like her as my dentist is this, my family might be moving to the Rockford area. I want to try to keep her as my dentist. I am willing to drive an hour just to see her. Dr. Malin and her staff are the best!!!
About Hygienist: The hygienists are great. They are fast and thorough. They give me the same treatment that Dr. Malin does. They make me feel right at home.

Patient Review 21:

I have been going to Dr. Malin for more than 5 years and that says a lot. I'm fearful of dental work due to bad past experiences. Dr. Malin, Alex and the entire staff always make me feel completely comfortable. She ensures the work she and her team do is good. She has returned calls to me after hours and on days the office isn't even open. She is truely a gem of a Dr that I hope will remain in the area forever! Her equipment is the most up to date and she is very personable. I feel like I'm visiting with family/close friends opposed to a dental hygiene visit. Thanks to Dr Malin, Alex and the entire staff for all your efforts at keeping patients comfortable and happy!
About Hygienist: All the hygienists I've visited at Dr Malin's office have been excellent. They are quick with their work but still very personable, making you feel right at home. The office is always clean. All procedures are explained in full detail. A pleasant way to have your dental needs taken care of.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: 5 + years.

Patient Review 22:

I, as a child remember the "old Dental office". I was dragged in by my mom, and dreaded every minute!! I hate needles, and still do!! The memories of the needles sitting in a glass gar next to the chair I sat in still haunt me.I have 3 sons, who are now adults. My oldest was the one who gave my Dr. Malin's phone number. This is a son who when he went to another dentist soacked his shirt in sweat. He told me "Mom, I have been going to Dr. Malin in Des Plaines, and I think you should really try her out. I feel like home when I am there". That was enough for me. I called , made an appointment, and I too felt so comfortable. The entire staff is awsome! ! I still hate needles, and pain, but Dr. Malin and her associates sure make you are as comfortable as possible.The office is top of the line. I have never been in such a comfortable atmosphere. They even have music you can listen to if want to relax. Trust me, for me it worked!!!THE BEST IN THE AREA!!!
About Hygienist: Great Job!! Once again, I hate going to dentist's. The girls are so nice and comforting.
Treatment Length with Dr. Malin: 1 year.
