1st Family Dental of Algonquin

If Google would let me give 12 out of 5 stars, I would. I've been coming to this office for probably 6 or 7 years now, and I recently started bringing my parents here as well. That alone should tell you how much I trust them. I wanted my parents to receive the same level of care and treatment that I've received over the years. Dr. Abufara may be young, but don't let that fool you—he is extremely knowledgeable and very good at what he does. He listens when you have concerns, answers your questions, and actually pays attention to what you're telling him. Is he a fast talker? Yep. 😂 But he has absolutely no problem repeating himself or explaining something again if you need him to. He's approachable, easy to understand, and makes sure you're comfortable with what's going on. Teresa, my dental hygienist, is AMAZING. Getting on her schedule can take a little planning because she is one busy lady—and now I understand why! But when you're in her chair, you would never know how busy she is. She doesn't rush you, doesn't make you feel like she's watching the clock, and gives you her full attention. Kelly and Georgia at the front desk are both incredibly sweet, helpful, and professional. And then there's Sarah, the office manager, who is an absolute GEM. I'm pretty convinced the entire place would stop functioning without her. 😂 She is truly wonderful. My parents do not have dental insurance, and I also really appreciate that the office has self-pay pricing options. Their cash/self-pay rates are more reasonable than the rates typically billed through insurance, which makes dental care much more manageable for people without coverage. I don't recommend medical or dental providers lightly—especially when it comes to my parents. I've trusted this office with my own dental care for years, and now I trust them with my parents, too. 12 out of 5 stars. Highly recommend the entire team! ❤️ My one and only complaint? The office is an ICEBOX. 😂 It can be 95 degrees outside and I still make my mother wear pants and bring a sweater like we're heading out in the dead of winter. Consider this your public service announcement: the dental care is exceptional, but dress in layers. 🤣

All the staff members are super helpful and kind. Great prices if you don’t have dental. Happy this my new dentist

Dr. Abufarha is awesome with people who have pain and/or anxiety at the dentist. He is so gentle and thorough. He doesn't just get the work done, he checks in frequently, pays attention to what bothers you, and always has a solution to make sure you're comfortable. Before a big procedure he prescribed me a sedative pill to help with my severe anxiety. Highly recommend going to see Dr. Abufarha!

Great place! Teresa is amazing with my son who's on the spectrum. The entire staff are friendly and compassionate. Thank you guys for helping a mom out, I appreciate you guys.

Our daughter broke her tooth recently, we called the office and they got her in right away. The dentist and office staff are always super accommodating and respectful. The dentist himself reviews everything thoroughly and they always go over the plan and let us know costs before doing anything which is great! Highly recommend. We take both our kids there(6 and 8 years old)
