Phillip Mcdonnell

Dr. Phillips was okay. I was with this doctor for a year and a half during my time in Chicago. Mind you that was awhile ago. Overall, I felt like it took a long time for me and the doctor to create a dental plan that fit my needs. I felt that he was personable enough and really did want to help me. However, I just don’t think we’re on the same wavelength. I will say that his front office was very understanding and working with me to maintain a payment plan that really was flexible with my financial situation. I think I was with this doctor for a year and a half or my time in Chicago. However, that was a while ago. Overall, I felt like it took a long time for me and this doctor to create a dental plan that money. About that he was possible I know I really did anyone to help me. However, I was not totally satisfied with the services I got here and decided to go elsewhere for my dental needs.

Been going to Dr. Phil for 5 or 6 years now and wouldn’t consider anyone else while living in the Chicago area. He knows his craft, does not try and push unnecessary procedures on you and is pleasant to interact with. Ditto for Kathy my hygenist. Indeed, I like and trust him and his staff so much I still make the trek downtown for my dental services from him instead of finding someone else closer to home now that I no longer work in the Loop.

Best Dentist ever, and for me to say that means its the highest compliment. His office is state of the art and he is very compassionate as well as being very honest. A review below spoke of high charges but I have found his services to be reasonable. If you are going to save money on something, oral health is not the place to save a few dollars. Not to me anyway, I want the best.

Dr. McDonnell and his trusty sidekick, Kathy the Hygienist, are amazing. I too am a total wimp, but Dr. McDonnell and Kathy have completely put me at ease. I was actually able to relax in their chair even during a crown preparation, and that’s saying a lot (!). They have taken very good care of my teeth over the years. You could not find a better dentist.

Saw the Dr several times. Great talker but suggested a retainer for $ 900.00 that I didn’t need and overcharged me for it too. Found a much better dentist in the same building that has completed work the Phil never got to start!!!

You’ve got to be doing something right to be dentist and get five stars.
I have been going to Dr. McDonnell for 2 years. He is WONDERFUL. I am one of those people who hates going to the dentist and honestly he makes it a pleasure.
They are SO accommodating here. Kathy (the hygienist) is so nice and chatty and is *honestly* very painless. And I’m a wimp. I recommended to my husband who hasn’t been to see a dentist in years and he actually called his experience pleasant.
Dr. McDonnell is funny and hip. I need a root canal (on top of a years-​old cavity that was not properly filled from a prior dentist) and have put it off for some time. Last time I was there, I saw Dr. McDonnell and told him I hadn’t gotten it done yet (he referred me to a specialist for this one) and he was not preachy at all. Just told me that I’m too cute to walk around with an infection in my mouth.
Flattery will get you everywhere, Doctor.
