Patient Care is our Top Priority

At Hinsdale Dentistry, we understand dental settings have unique characteristics that warrant specific infection control considerations. Therefore, with respect to our valued patients, we prioritize the most critical dental services.

Dr. Harnois and Dr. Kowalczak proactively communicate to both personnel and patients the

“We understand the concerns our patients have about COVID-19 and our entire staff wants to make them feel safe and comfortable the moment they walk into our dental practice. To us they are more than just patients. They are family and friends that we have had the privilege of serving for over thirty years.”

need for them to stay at home if they are sick. Our staff is trained to know the proper steps to take if a patient has COVID-19 symptoms. Dr. Peter was on the first committees in 1985 to advise OSHA of the best practices & protocol, and has stayed ahead of these guidelines ever since. Per the Center for Disease Control (CDC), anyone can have mild to severe symptoms. Older adults and people who have severe underlying medical conditions, including heart or lung disease, or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing serious complications from COVID-19 illness.
