5 out of 5 stars

I have been coming here for 30 years and the treatment has always been five star. Ali, my hygienist, is fantastic. She is gentle yet precise, and leaves me with a very good feeling and clean, refreshed mouth. The entire office is friendly and professional.

Can’t recommend Dr. Yousef enough. The time and attention to detail he gave to show me why I may need a procedure done was very appreciated. Some doctors can feel pushy when it comes to recommending costly procedures but he showed me X-rays and explained in great detail why he was recommending it, which reassured me to get it addressed. Super smooth and painless procedure, he was talking me through it the whole time!

I am a new patient and was impressed with the organization of the office. Dr. Ross was wonderful and made me feel welcomed. He gave me a baseline assessment. My teeth are sparkly and clean after a fabulous cleaning by Karen. Thank you again!

Karen, the dental hygienist is very professional and thorough, yet she always calm my nerves and makes sure I am comfortable. I Highly recommend her. Dr Ross is very professional, thorough and has a great “chair side” manner. He explains and makes sure I understand everything. I feel welcome as everyone I have met is very nice and considerate.

Was able to get in the same day for emergency visit. Dr Ross was awesome and so was assistant Jenny. No pain and left with a beautiful tooth color restoration that looks good and feels great.

Wonderful experience seeing Dr. Ross! His staff was very friendly and accommodating. I was seen by Doctor last minute as I had an urgent dental matter that he resolved in minutes. Gentle and effective care at a moment’s notice. Thank you!!

Exceptionally friendly! Integrity is paramount in their services. No extras! Old school attention to details and workmanship is top notch! Letting out a secret! Best in the north shore!

Dr. Yousef was extremely thorough in explaining my treatment plan and most importantly made me feel at ease. I would recommend Dr. Yousef and the entire practice to anyone, especially nervous dentist patients like myself.

This has been the best dentist office I’ve ever been to. When I walk in Patricia greets me with a smile every time. Ali takes great care of my teeth and even remembers that certain equipment doesn’t work well for me. Even the office manager Sonia took the time to assist me with my insurance questions. This place is like family to me, I’ll never go anywhere else

Dr. Ross is kind, very efficient, explains procedures thoroughly, and ensures his patient's comfort throughout the appointment. His staff are friendly, welcoming, and caring. Very pleased to find this exceptional dental practice in Lake Forest after my dentist of almost 30 years retired!
