Hello, my name is Jennifer Jasso, and I am currently a dental assistant. I believe that my family and friends have pushed me through the process of becoming a better dental assistant every day. Everyone has been really encouraging throughout my journey. I love my position as a dental assistant! I get to be involved with every patient that comes in. I love how the patients make me lose track of time because it is so involving. I love the feeling of having things in place and in pace. Consider me OCD because I love having everything squeaky clean, not just for myself but for the patients as well. I have four pets (two dogs and two fishies.) Last but not least, my favorite hobby is spending quality time with my little five year old.

Hello, my name is Alejandra De La Cerda and I am currently a dental receptionist here at our practice. My familys love and support have helped push me to become a better version of myself in all aspects. I am currently a student at Harper College, but I will be transferring to DePaul University in the Fall of 2020 to pursue a degree in political science with the goal of becoming an immigration attorney. I love my position here at our office, it gives me the opportunity to learn a lot about insurance companies and how Medicare works. At our office, it feels like a family, and we all work as a team to do the best we can to provide the best service to our patients. Outside of the office in my free time, I love to spend more time with my family.

As Dr. Niekraszs wife and longest-running employee, Kathy appreciates all aspects of the dental field. She most enjoys assisting in all dental procedures and educating and encouraging the patients as they work to achieve better dental and overall physical health. We have patients who have been with us over 25 years and they are truly family to us. Kathy helps make needed treatment understandable to our patients, and with Angelicas and Marias expertise, she coordinates treatment costs with insurance benefits, co-pays, and financing. When you break down into incremental, manageable steps what seemed overwhelming to the patient, treatment becomes doable. The patient can begin treatment with the necessary knowledge and assurance that a healthy smile can be achieved. Everyone is a winner. That is the goal we as a dental team strive to achieve with each of our patients. When not working, Kathy enjoys spending time with her family, volunteering on local policy action organizations, and sewing and costuming for the School of Ballet Chicago. Dr. Niekrasz and Kathy have three adult children and two beautiful grandsons. Their oldest daughter is a dedicated nurse, wife, and mother of two. Their son is a published writer (MFA from the Writers Workshop, U. of Iowa) and musician. Their youngest daughter is a professional ballet dancer with Ballet Memphis. Kathy says, The artistry in our three children comes mainly from their father. His artistic eye has been a tremendous asset in his dentistry, especially with achieving the best cosmetic outcomes with veneers, crowns, and dentures.

I have been seeing Dr. Donovan since a young girl. Now, he is at Dr. Niekrasz's office and every interaction I've had with him and his staff has been nothing short of delightful! They are thorough, patient, and professional. Thank you Dr. Donovan for my healthy smile

As has always been in the past, my most recent appointment with Dr. Niekrasz and his team was not only pain free but both pleasant and efficient. Especially impressive is the office's concern for their patient's over all well being with an emphasis, of course, on oral health matters. I highly recommend Dr Niekrasz for anyone seeking a knowledgeable and highly skilled dentist.

I've been going to Dr. Niekrasz for a few years and he is the best! I've had issues with dentists in the past who want to drill every small issue when it isn't necessary. Dr. Niekrasz uses x-rays in addition to patient pain (or lack thereof) before making a treatment decision. He doesn't believe in unnecessary drilling, which compromises the overall structure of the teeth. If there isn't a problem, don't try to fix it. This is the first time in my life I don't have anxiety when going to the dentist. I highly recommend!!

Had an appt on nov 26 at 2pm, arrived was told they left a message that my appt was cancelled, had co cessati n with dentist wife, gave me some honey and that be cause I missed an appt previously that they do not want to do business with and told me to f another dr. I don't know who he thinks he is, but that's not how to conduct business with any one.. very poor business practice. Not happy will let everyone know. if i could I would give this man a minus of 5 stars. I also want to say, that when dre's go to college they don't attend an empathy classroom, I guess it is not required , they might ha e college degrees but don't have any common sense. . For such intelligent people they can be so stupid.

I've been going to see Dr. Niekrasz for a few years now and I have nothing but positive things to say. This is a family business and they care about their clients and serve all kinds of people in the community. Very reasonable cost, easy to schedule an appointment and I always leave with my teeth looking great.
