Staff treats me great . Dr always explains everything I need to know or answers any questions I might have. The hygienist was very determined to do deep cleaning completely. Great job by all. I thank you one and all.

Very happy with the care and great service

Very nice place

It was a great dentist who I have ever seen, he examined my teeth carefully and explained me exactly what problem that I have then gave a schedule base on priorities.

Letty was especially thorough! I really appreciated how clean my teeth were afterward.

thorough exam and cleaning to go with complete record creation for new patient. timely response to all request for information and scheduling

I searched a long time to find this dentist. Dr. Barker is the best. He really listens, always willing to work with you, and his staff is always very welcoming, great at explaining both dental work being scheduled and all costs involved. A definite ten!

The usual professional services with no add ons. Dr. Barker and his staff are always very thorough and professional. Kudos. Will be my dentist for a long time.

Excellent service and assessment.

Everthing went as scheduled . Staff competent and pleasant.

As always everything was great. The only difference this time was that it was a very fast cleaning, and the hygienist did not floss my teeth during my cleaning. Everyone is very pleasant and right on time as always.

My first visit! Dr Barker was very informative and went over the Xray with a detailed explanation. During my cleaning, by the hygienist, the water from the suctioning device was all over my face and cold which causes problems, because my teeth are sensitive. Maybe warm water would’ve helped, and lower the water pressure to avoid a ‘face washed.’

Good equipment, communication

I've been very happy with all my visits to CCD. But, I tried to book appointments through the website 2x this summer, with no response. And I replied to the birthday e-mail I received, also requesting an appointment, but no response. I will stick with calling in the future.

Quick and efficient service. Friendly staff. Clean and comfortable.

Personnel polite, the clinic clean, pleasant music to relax and the Dr polite and courteous, handled well my case, I recommend this clinic

The team is very efficient and Dr. Barker is very honest and doesn’t push you into doing any lavish procedures that are very costly which some other dentists I have seen do saying that they will give you the perfect smile.

Dr Barker was professional in talking to me about my problems with my teeth, and he fixed my teeth. Also, Dr. Barker's staff were professional in talking to me when I needed help filling out the patient form. Thank you! -NC

My dentist was excellent! However, my dental hygienist seemed rushed and wasn't as thorough as other hygienists I have had in the past. I will likely request a different hygienist for my next appointment.

The staff was very nice and sensitive to my problem. They also made me feel comfortable. Thanks you for being so nice

Great friendly customer service. Explaining of procedure pre and post treatment was thorough and well explained. For sure recommend.

Great dentist very knowledgeable and nice this goes for everyone in the office

Everyone in the office always makes me feel very comfortable & they do a great job! Thanks everyone

Seen on time. Procedures explained clearly prior to starting them. Love the tv distraction.

I was very happy to see dr. Barker . My cleaning went pretty fast . See you in 6 months.

I had a wonderful experience. The dentist was thorough and answered all my questions. My visit was quick and I enjoyed being able to watch Netflix during my check-up. Most importantly, the dentist was honest. In the past, I’ve had dentists tell me I needed expensive and extensive work done when second opinions have determined that such treatment was unnecessary. I will definitely return.

Good experience with the dentist. However, the receptionist who asked for my driver's license neglected to give it back to me. Three days went by before I noticed it missing and then proceeded to spend hours looking everywhere for it before the weekend came and went. When I called on Monday, they said, "Oh yeah, we have it here, we left you a voice mail." You did not leave me a voice mail. "Well, one of the receptionists was supposed to call you." Seriously lazy people. And that was my first experience there. Now I'm not going to trust anything they say.

Always comprehensive care! Dr. Cody and CCD's team of hygienists and staff are always friendly, inviting and thorough.

I’ve been going here for years, the doctor and staff are very professional.

All good

Always a great experience.

Dr. Wilfinger is awesome, very personable and friendly as are Dr. Barker and all the staff.

As always, wonderful service by a hugely knowledgeable dentist. I had taken a bad fall recently and he checked teeth and periodontal ligaments, etc to make sure all was well. I truly appreciated that. Looking for a dentist? Look no further, Dr. Barker is tops.

This is an office that works very smoothly so there is very little waiting time to be seen for your appointment. Dr. Barker is extremely honest as far as what Dental work is required which has not always been the case with some other dentists I have have seen over the years. All the staff are well trained so they work quickly doing their jobs but very effectively.

Quick but very thorough! Really makes the dentist visit easy and my teeth feel great.

Dr. Cody is conscientious, accomodating and friendly. He explains procedures and treatment plans, which I really appreciate. I like knowing exactly what is going on with my body, and it helps me to better understand how to better maintain my oral health. I am currently without dental insurance, and he was still able to work with me to figure out the best course of action for my treatment. I really appreciate it-- thank you so much!

Great staff and service at all times everyone is really friendly.

My 1st time visit was great! The dentist laid d cards on you,procedures to be done and so on, he is so nice and approachable. The dental assistants too are helpful and friendly.

Overall Excellence! Thank you as always.

Great visit, as always 😊

Love the clarity and straightforwardness of your billing process and the lack of pressure in describing treatment options.

Dr. Cody and staff were very pleasant and accommodating.

It's in the name. Clearly Cares. I can say this clinic's staff is really great. No beating around the bush with extensive visits. What need to be done is going to be done. A lot gets done in one visit. They explain everything thoroughly.

Very friendly and prefessional staff!! Dentist visit moved along quickly yet efficiently!! Thanks !!

My son (10 years old) loves to go to Clear cares dental. Everyone is very professional there. I would recomend thais place to everyone!

The dental doctor was awesome he really cares about his clients he gives you a step by step on what he is going to do. He also has Netflix on the wall and the cealing

Seamless professionalism with the fitting of my new dentures.

Dr. Barker listens to his patients which is what I’ve always appreciated about him in addition to his skills. His staff is also helpful and attentive. I highly recommend him.

Staff always friendly and polite...Dr. Barker always professional..I have been a patient for a while and will continue due to the service I receive.

Doc and company are always punctual, friendly and incredibly professional. Love Clearly Cares Dental!

I was greeted promptly and seen in time. Are was taken throughout my exam and treatment (cleaning only).

Awesome service

All around great experience! Dr Cody explains procedures thoroughly, and is very attentive to pain sensitivity . I have only good things to say about this dental practice!

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the great service. The warm greeting when we walked in and the extra effort in getting my teeth cleaned

Great customer service and experienced team members. When it comes to communications regarding appointment reminders, I would reduce the amount a customer receives. I received texts, emails, and phone calls when I had already confirmed. It can be distracting after awhile. :)

Everyone is very professional

Every thing wen well experience good

My visit was satisfy

Great service from personal, professional doctor.

Customer service very polite and on time with appointment.

Overall a great first visit! Very friendly staff and care team, welcoming environment, and thorough cleaning and exam

Excellent service from Dr. Kenneth . And a dental assistant I believe her name was stella explained The procedure Willing to answer all my questions without rushing me I think she was excellent

Very efficient visit.

On time and very professional.

Appreciated the professionalism and especially the billing process.

Love this dentist! I’m very picky about dentists but all of my tough technical and technique boxes were checked. This is a dentist who listens and who works WITH you. He tells you the action plan, explains why, and listens to your input— and there are no cost surprises.

The most incredible dental experience I have ever encountered, Dr Barker is very informative and knowledgeable about my dental care and treatment plan and I’ve already let all my co-workers and family members know about him and how pleasant his office and staff members are. You have to call and make and appointment!!!

Super friendly staff. Really quick cleaning

As the name implies, Dr. Barker clearly cares. I will be a patient there for a very long time.

Friendly. Efficient. Thorough

Very pleasant and professional

Just a professional staff.

Front desk is very helpful. Dentist is best in Chicago and always tells you what he’s keeping on eye on. You also don’t get surprised on costs because he goes over your treatment plan on day one. Personally, I think the prices are the some of the lowest in town—and for that you get the best dentist!

Dr. Barker is David's first Dentist. He is very good with kids.

Dr Barker is wonderful and great every time I visit. Never had a bad experience. The dental hygienists are awesome and well trained as well. Perfect team!

The staff made me comfortable and well versed on the next process!

Dr Barker is the best and the office is welcoming and comfortable which makes it so I don’t dread the dentist so much.

Eve

Good communication. Always explain procedures and costs.

Pleasant, respectful and very professional sums it all up. I’ll highly recommend to friends and fam.

I needed an immediate evaluation of a dental problem, Dr. Barker at Clearly Cares Dental was recommended by a dentist friend. I sent an email in the morning. When the office opened at 10:00 AM, his assistant had already looked at my email, after speaking with Dr. Baker, she informed me ( via text) that he could see me at 11:30 am. Dr. Barker looked at the tooth, took an X-ray and gave me several options and recommendations. I found the practice to be very professional, the staff members competent, accommodating, honest and affable.

Thank you for all your gentle expertise, never a bad experience.

Been seeing Dr. Barker for about ten years now. Can't say enough good things. Appointments are always on time and he's very courteous to whatever needs you may have.

I took my 5yo son for his checkup and I had mine too - great experience as always. Both the nurse and the dentist were very nice and patient with my son- he is not scared at all to go there. It’s a plus that there is a kids table with coloring books and crayons to keep them occupied while the parents are inside for checkup.

Dr. Barker, Thank you, I appreciate you and your staff, it's been difficult to find a dental office we like for my wife and I as well as the kids. We appreciate your effort to make a trip to the dentist enjoyable rather than dreaded!

Quick and effeciant treatment I would recomend them to my friends and family

It was great

I had a great experience and highly recommend Clearly Cares Dental

Love the efficiency! In and out with X-rays in 25m ❤️👌

The service is always amazing

As always Dr. Barker and his staff were friendly and helpful. Unlike past dental offices I have visited I never feel nervous about my appointments or that Dr Barker will make me feel guilty if I've neglected my dental care for a while.

Awesome Dentist! great staff ! Very professional. clean and convenient I would and did recommend other..

The dentist Barker is very informative about each procedure and how its done before he performs it.

Very pleasant and friendly service. Fast and efficient. They took very good care if me. Even though I moved 8 miles from the neighborhood, I will keep coming back and recommend to everyone.

The name says it all Clearly really cares about your dental health.

Desk personnel, appointment reminders and dental work by dentist—all great. I had to visit 7 dentists before finding this incredible dentist.
