Barry Cherny, DDS

Oral surgery services operate quietly in Skokie’s Old Orchard area. Barry Cherny, DDS shares space in the shopping center at 4905 Old Orchard Shopping Ctr #229, a spot that’s more practical than flashy. The suite number hints at its unassuming presence—no grand signage, just a professional listing among the center’s mix of medical and retail tenants. This isn’t the kind of place that advertises with billboards or social media campaigns, which might explain why its Google profile shows a 3.6 rating from 5 reviews—enough for a signal, not a consensus.

The North Shore’s dental landscape includes everything from pediatric clinics to cosmetic specialists, but oral surgeons fill a narrower niche. Procedures here likely cover extractions, implants, and corrective jaw surgeries, the sort of work that sends patients home with ice packs and follow-up instructions. Old Orchard’s shopping center setting means it’s surrounded by the usual suburban conveniences: pharmacies for prescriptions, cafés for post-appointment coffee, and easy access to Edens Expressway. None of that changes the fact that oral surgery remains a necessary rather than leisurely errand.

Directions are straightforward—plug the address into a map and follow the route to the second-floor suite. Questions about procedures or appointments go to (847) 675-6868, where the answers will probably be clinical and to the point. There’s no need to dress up the details: it’s an oral surgeon’s office, not a spa, and the focus stays on the work, not the experience.
