Dr. Abrar Ghazal, is absolutely amazing. Let's you know exactly what she'd like to do for you and discuss's it with you so you can set up a plan. She also has you check with your insurance company so you know exactly what your insurance will cover for you and what your cost is. She's compassionate and is truly there for you to have a good experience. Looking forward to continue with the care plan we've got set up. Would highly recommend her for your doctor (denist).GW
I’ve gotta do a shout out to whoever hired the front office staff! Blaine has great customer service skills and is so happy to help with any questions I had. The new year brought such a great energy to this office! So glad to see the new staff; such an improvement from the other lady that was at the front check in. She seemed to always have an attitude. I also had a very knowledgeable hygienist and the doctor has a great bedside manner. The doctor gave me great alternatives to some treatments I need and I think my next step is an implant with her because I feel so comfortable with her. Took away all my nerves! Thanks to the ladies at this office! I’ll be back and bringing some family members too!
One of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had. The hygienist and front office ladies are amazing, helpful, and very kind. Dr. Ghazal is the nicest doctor ever, she’s very efficient, and a great person. Recommend coming to Midwest Dental!
Best dental office I’ve ever walked in! Doctor G is very calming and knowledgeable. She explains treatment to you so you know every step of the way. Her staff is very friendly and helpful too! Looking forward to my next appointment!!!
Always friendly from the front desk, person cleaning my teeth to the doctor. I have TMJ and they are very good about making sure I can rest my jaw enough.
Unfortunately as a child I was strapped down to the dental chair while the dentist performed whatever tasks he needed at that time.
When I walked into Midwest Dental I felt a self-relief. When the hygienist and the dentist came to the chair I wasn't White knuckled as usual I was more laid back relaxed and listened as they spoke confidently relaxed and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend MIDWEST DENTAL of Freeport Illinois to everybody I know and those I don't
I am ashamed to admit it had been a long time since I had been to the dentist. And of course the dentist makes me so nervous.
But due to pain I had to do what’s best. So I made the call. They were able to get me the next day. The staff was so welcoming. They talked to me, and made feel heard. Then when the dentist came in. And she was so friendly! Talked to me about the plan and how to fix the issues. I am very happy to say that I can’t wait to go back!
Recently had a filling between two of my teeth and the doctor was very gentle with me during the procedure. I didn't feel any pain or discomfort - even with the injection to numb the area. It was a very pleasant experience.
It was amazing!! I have never had a positive experience at a dentist, UNTIL I went to MIDWEST DENTAL FREEPORT! They have given me hope. When the dentist walked into the room I was in, her presence was calming. I needed a tooth extracted and the dentist was caring. Her bedside manner was like no other...FANTASTIC!!! She cares about patients. I wasn't just another number! She talked with me to ease any concerns I had. The extraction went amazingly smooth. I finally have a wonderful dentist after many, many decades!!
The assistants to the dentist were kind and patient and very accommodating! The office staff is kind and very helpful and again they too make the atmosphere amazing!!
I took my almost 5 year old here and they did amazing! They were so patient and kind and made his trip to the dentist memorable and fun! He can’t wait to go back for another teeth cleaning!

Prices are affordable even if you don't have dental insurance! They have a wonderful Smiles program to help you save money on every visit! Go here, you won't regret it!

5 stars across the board
Recently visited this location, office is very professional and bright. Dr. Ghazal did an amazing job fixing my front tooth which was chipped, cracked, and uneven. She is very patient and goes the extra mile to make sure things get done correctly and to the patient's satisfaction. The material she used cosmetically matched spot on with my own tooth color so it looks very natural; thanks for making my smile look great again!
Amazing Dr So caring and great bedside manner. I was really worried about my crown, but Dr. Ghazal reassured me and listened meticulously to my concerns. So blessed for this office! 5/5
I am scared to death of the dentist, but was in tremendous pain from a broken tooth. I am happy to say that I was very pleased with Midwest dental. They are very kind and did an amazing job with my extraction. I will continue to be a patient here forever.
I am not necessarily the patient. My sister is at the dentist at Midwest dental in Freeport. Illinois is very thorough with her patients. The staff is always very friendly and welcoming and my sister loves this dentist. She doesn’t talk a whole lot but she does. Thank you very much.
Staff is very pleasant and helpful. I absolutely love the Dr and hygienist, they're both professional and personable. I'd highly recommend this practice
The staff is so welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. They take their time to answer questions and make you feel comfortable with the work that is being done. Midwest is also reasonably priced compared to other dental offices in the area! 10/10 would recommend to everyone!
Very well satisfied every one was very nice and respectful, explained everything very well. Did not feel preserved into anything not need, first impression was they are truthful and fare. Also, they honored the coverage I had and charges for procedures at a fair price
My experience with the Midwest Dental team at Freeport is superb. I have chronic back pain and they are pleasant to make sure and have a pillow ready in the dentist chair (it’s written in my chart). They adjust my chair position until my back can tolerate the position and observe my cues during the visit. This visit I had a newer dental hygienist (Kim) who did an excellent job cleaning my teeth. Plus she was gentle with the high powered equipment that I didn’t have any pain. The Dentist (Dr Deepa Yadav) is professional, thorough, respectful, friendly and also makes me feel like an individual important person when being seen even during these Covid times. My appointment was 4/28
First time here, I got in to my appointment quickly and smoothly. My hygienist, Danielle was very welcoming and answered all my questions. Dr. Williams was very kind and thorough in her explanations.

The dentist examined my teeth, located my issues and set priorities as to what we needed to address first and we worked out a treatment plan that’s affordable for me. That’s a big plus for me!!
The girls at Midwest Dental are wonderful!! To have a team willing to work with you to get your smile back and ease my anxiety, is worth it. The dentist takes the time to explain each step of the process of the treatment plan and doesn't push you into doing something that you may not be able to afford. I'm glad to be going here and can't wait to see how my smile will be in the future!!!
I was absolutely certain I would never go back to Midwest Dental after their last Dr. I'm glad I gave Dr. Yadav a chance. She is by far the best dentist I have ever seen. Super kind and super gentle. I will be going back and my family will also be going to see her.
Great experience never fear going to the dentist anymore. Samantha always makes my teeth so clean without any discomfort! 10 out of 10! I feel like they genuinely care about my oral care!
I went in for a root canal and I was terrified of the procedure because I didn't know what to expect. When Dr. Yadav came in I instantly started crying lmao. She insured me that I had nothing to worry about and she would make me comfortable as possible. She did just that. It was overall painless and very to little discomfort afterwards. I highly recommend to check her out she will do her best to make sure you are very comfortable and explain process very thoroughly, and her team is awesome as well. :)
My experiences with Midwest Dental have been quite satisfactory. The chair side staff is friendly yet professional. I felt at ease - and was informed about each stage of the procedure. They regularly checked on my level of comfort.
The new dentist seemed confident and skillful - with a gregarious personality.
The office personnel take care of billing my medical insurance company.
Friendly staff, beautiful office environment, and Dr. Ludwig is TEN STAR excellent. Very patient, and answers all questions and explains everything perfectly. Initial exam was super thorough. This was my first visit, and I will be returning.
