Jeffrey P Feffer, DDS

I recently moved to Chicago and chose Dr. Feffer’s dental office for my teeth cleaning based off his Unilocal reviews. I called for an appointment and was able to get one scheduled the next day.
The oral hygienist was very proactive in informing me what procedures she was going to do and was extremely thorough at cleaning my teeth. I came into Dr. Feffer’s office knowing that I need my wisdom teeth removed and was seeking oral surgeon referrals. He and his staff gave me oral surgeon referrals, answered all of my questions, and exceeded my expectations. It is for good reason why Dr. Feffer has great reviews.

Let me preface this review with how much I dislike visiting dental offices. The whole process is *usually* a painful, vulnerable, impersonal interaction that leaves a bitter taste, literally.
Enter Dr Feffer and Co.
There whole process was painless, and more than that was, dare I say it, enjoyable. He took time to lay out a treatment plan that I felt apart of. He listened and informed me exactly what was happening. He is a hidden gem, truly. A hard working individual who is proficient at what he does. I have nothing but positive things to say about my visit and even though I’ve since moved from the area, I am strongly thinking about returning for check up exams. I am very pleased. Much thanks Dr Feffer, greetings from CT!

I moved to Chicago from Los Angeles 3 years ago and was in need of a new dentist. Dr. Feffer’s office was around the corner from my apartment and once I visited his cozy and welcoming office I was sold! His smart staff were amazing to me and Dr. Feffer as a dentist is a perfect ten. I grew up with a family doctor and didn’t know any different until I was a patient of Dr. Feffers. His genuine care for his patients and his staff is a joy to see and since seeing Dr. Feffer for teeth cleanings I no longer dread visiting the dentist. You can tell when someone is genuinely interested in you and your life and Dr. Feffer and his staff take the time to get to know their patients which means so much to me! He is a master at his craft and his charisma and professionalism is second to none. Also, who doesn’t love a good cowboy boot! Dr. Feffer has style to! I absolutely recommend Dr. Feffer to anyone who is in need of a phenomenal dentist. I promise you he and his staff will brighten your day and your teeth!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience today with Dr. Feffer and his staff. He introduced himself before my cleaning, which I thought was very nice and made a great impression. Theresa, my hygenist, was wonderful. Thorough and gentle with nice bits of small talk thrown in. I appreciated every aspect of my visit– and honestly can’t say that I dread going back for my next appointment!!!

While I don’t mind going to the dentist, and have my whole life, I’ve never actually particularly liked any dentist I’ve gone to. I’ve always disliked the fact that they are in and out while the hygienist does most of the work and very little is explained to you in terms of your care. Have a cavity? Just take their word for it. After all, one filling is good money to a dental practice.
At the recommendation of a colleague, I scheduled a routine cleaning with Dr. Feffer. I was glad to see ample street parking and convenient location. The office staff was very friendly and the doctor came up to introduce himself while I was still in the waiting room. Theresa handled the x-​rays and cleaning and was as nice as professionally competent as could be. I always hate little things like having to almost choke on my own spit before they will suction it out, and it was little considerations like those that she was thoughtful about that made my visit completely painless.
When the doctor came in, he was incredibly friendly and took a few minutes to make small talk and get to know me a little bit which I appreciated. He then very thoroughly went through my x-​rays with me step by step and explained it all as we went so that I could understand what he was looking at. I did in fact have a cavity this visit and he made sure I understood exactly where it was and showed me on digital pictures the cavity itself.
This is a class act, and if you are looking for a dentist who will know you by name and give you very personal and careful attention, I highly recommend Dr. Feffer and his staff. You will be very happy you chose them.

One of the best, most professional dentist’s I’ve ever been too. Cannot believe the negative review posted on 6÷5÷14. I came in there (already nervous and not a big dentist fan) and talked their desk clerk Tammy that was so re-​assuring I decided to let Dr. Feffer work on the many issues I had. Not only is he wonderful at what he does (I didn’t feel a thing for an entire 2 hours) but he genuinely cared for what I wanted and took care of the pain I was in. He took me right a way with no wait and the following day I received a follow up phone calls to see how I was doing. Everything about this office is just wonderful. HIGHLY RECOMMENED!

I’ve been Dr. Feffer’s patient for twenty years now and couldn’t be happier. He’s very skilled at what he does and he’s a perfectionist. In addition, he’s very calm and soothing. I would give him 10 stars if I could!

I’m not sure how long that I went to Dr. Feffer… at least 15 – 20 years.
So many stories throughout the years, after the first time I was there I was put at ease and put my complete trust in him. If there is definition of a perfect dentist in the dictionary, they just have a picture of Dr. Feffer and his staff.
I moved away 8 years ago and still haven’t found a dentist that holds a candle to him. I credit him for saving several teeth that were botched from other dentists.
Thank you Dr. Feffer! you have NO idea how much my teeth miss you, Wish we could clone you so I could have no worries about my teeth here in Vegas :)
What do I miss most about Chicago? The Pizza… yes but no
Chicago Dog? miss those but no…
I miss my dentist the most!!!

I’ve been going to Dr. Feffer for about 12 years now.
I’ve lived all over Chicago, and even over seas. I make sure to always come back to him no matter where I live. I am in my mid thirties and have had almost ever tooth worked on. He’s not cheap, but he’s not sloppy either. I’ve invested a lot of money of the years and believe in his work. Most of it has lasted that long. For one tooth, a year later after he worked on it, it was having issues, and he is repairing it for free.
Great work, experienced, latest digital Xrays, takes digital pictures.
Oh, and he is personal, great communication skills, and treats you like family.

Dr. Jeffrey Feffer and his team are fantastic! I have been going to his office for a few years for my dental needs and Dr. Feffer and his professional team have always been very kind and efficient. Dr. Feffer and his staff make you feel very welcomed and put you at ease from the moment you walk in, which always helps calm any nervousness about receiving dental treatment. I’ve felt so confident and comfortable receiving tretment that I have even dosed off some tiime… while getting a dental cleaning! Also, they always work with me, by creating the best strategy for my dental treatment, so it is financially feasible for me to complete, which I truly appreciate. His office is at a great location (near public transportation), which makes it very easy to get to from downtown. The aesthetics of the office are very pleasant as well, which is nice because its is not hectic and helps you feel relaxed from the moment you arrive until you leave, with your new toothbrush in hand.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Feffer’s since 2006. His work is impeccable. You cannot distinguish where a filling ends and the tooth begins.
He has taken care of me with insurance, without insurance, through a divorce, through a career change, through the terminal illness of a loved one and he has always worked with the circumstances.
When between insurances, he helped me make the most necessary and affordable treatment choices. When I started my own business his office staff helped me understand the available coverage options for private insurance.
His stories are hilarious and soothing. He is always able to put me at ease.
The waiting room has a skylight and was just remodeled. The hygienist’s bay is clean and comfortable. The other chairs look out over Diversey so it’s very relaxing when you’re having more involved procedures. You can look up at the sky or watch people running errands in the neighborhood.

I have spent 20+ years crafting and honing my reputation. When doctors with needles see me coming, they shake in their scrubs. They hide behind their nurses. They give up practicing. No not really… but over the years I have built my reputation as the Van Helsing of needles. You want my blood, vampire? You better cowboy up. At a particular doctor’s office in West Virginia, specializing in orthodontics, I’m known as The Biter. Down the road at the general practice physician’s office, I’m Kicky McGhee. And at the local dentist’s office? I’m simply The Terror. I don’t dislike doctors. I actually enjoy their general brisk gruffness. But as soon as that needle makes an appearance, all bets are off. That doctor becomes my mortal enemy.
And then I met Dr. Feffer. As with all first time physician appointments, I go in with the best of hopes. And Dr. F really did meet and exceed my expectations. He was gentle and kind and made humorous comments. Not even the brisk gruffness I had come to accept with mild affection in doctors. I was beginning to fear I wouldn’t be able to maintain my street cred. And then he let me know that while I had waited to find a dentist in the city (constructing my character of terror takes time, children) some of my fillings had sprung leaks, so to speak.
Here it was. Van Helsing’s shining moment. The time had come to show Dr. F who I really am. A menacing, needling-​hating, biting, kicking, pain-​in-​the-​rear-​end-​of-​a-​patient who would fill the pit of his stomach with icy dread when he saw me breeze through his doors.
And… I froze. I couldn’t do it. My second appointment back was going to be a doozy in his chair, and I just couldn’t make the Van Helsing come out. He explained too much and made me too comfortable. He reduced my growling tiger to a mewling kitten who couldn’t be bothered to put up a fight. Don’t get me wrong, those first needles hurt like a mother and I wouldn’t ask for them again unless I was threatened with being a toothless hillbilly, but the battle in me was gone. I simply lied there and took it. Like a boss, actually. (Right, Dr. F?!)
Of course now I’m ruined. No doctor in Chicago will fear me now after they’ve heard the tales of my subordination. How I no longer faint out of sheer mulishness. How I no longer bring out the Holy water and garlic when my blood is about to be stolen, er… drawn. Oh the shame…
Ruined reputation aside, I still have love for Dr. Feffer and his office girls. They could soften the heart of Colonel Meow if they so chose.

I could’ve sworn I wrote a review months ago, but it seems to have disappeared so I’ll write another.
I was working down the street from Dr. Feffer’s office when I cracked one of my molars. I hadn’t been to the dentist for a few years because of a bad experience I had when I first moved to Chicago. I’d never been afraid of the dentist til that visit so I had really put off returning and was terrified to go to another dentist for fear that I’d have another poor experience.
As our regular customers came into our store I’d ask them which dentist they went to and a lot of them said they’d been to Dr. Feffer. I decided to give it a shot because my pain couldn’t get much worse! I walked straight over to speak with him and he actually sat with me in the lobby of his office and explained some things to me. I asked him a lot of questions and told him about my resistance to novacaine which he told me was poor technique and why he could guarantee me I’d feel nothing. I was surprised, I actually cried… I know! But I was feeling relief already.
I made an appointment and came back to have my tooth fixed. He went through and took xrays and pictures and told me why I was having the problems I was having. Got me numb on the first try! And I was done before I knew it. He also tried to curb the expenses for me because I have no insurance. It was the best dentist visit I’ve ever had.
I went back this week for a cleaning and Sundy (Sorry I don’t know how you spell your name!!!) cleaned my teeth and was super friendly. I had a few other issues from not being to the dentist in so long so I got some of those fixed this week as well and felt absolutely nothing and have one more appointment left and hopefully I’ll be set! No more waiting in between for cleanings. I’ve learned my lesson.
The entire staff is hilarious and helpful. Hard to find in a big city sometimes. I highly recommend going to Dr. Feffer.
You know you don’t have to floss all your teeth… only the ones you want to keep.

Where do I begin??? Dr. Feffer is the greatest most pleasant individual I have EVER had the pleasure of knowing. This review isn’t even going to do him justice.
I originally went to get a second consultation in the area. I happen to live right near here and saw «JEFFREY P. FEFFER 773−348−3668» on the window of his practice. I thought well let me call this dentist and see if I can get another consultation. No answer… it was their lunch break… 15 minutes later I get a call from that number, ITS DR. FEFFER! He called ME back! Immediately, I didn’t care about price this man went out of his way and interrupted his lunch break to call me back! So in I went. Long story short I went in and had to have a root canal (never hurt a bit. went to work 4 hours later), and a crown. He didn’t like the way the first crown looked (which looked terrific to me but he is VERY particular and wants EVERYTHING looking AMAZING) so he went ahead and remade a better version of the first! He quotes accurate prices for work to be done too. I honestly can’t give this man enough praise. He is such a breath of fresh air compared to other dentists! He takes time with each individual person and never appears to be rushing! His staff is also fabulous! I love his girls there! I have NEVER gotten a comfortable feeling at the dentist before, and here I do!
