Meet Dr. Barbara Siargos
Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with people of all backgrounds and family histories. I’ve learned that everyone has a story that’s important. Though orthodontists are trained to seek perfection in bites and alignment, what's most important to me is to ensure that our goals align with those of our patients and everyone is pleased with and proud of their result.
Our patients make our days fun, and I cherish the relationships we’ve built with them and their families throughout the years. I am honored to be a part of their story and to give them a smile they will forever cherish.
Family and Community
My husband (and practice partner), Dr. Matt Israel, and I have two children, Elly and Marco. We also have two dogs, Annie and Toula, who are adorable and sweet, but keep us all on our toes and constantly searching for missing shoes! Outside of work, I love to cook (and eat), walk the dogs (especially with friends), read books, and travel anywhere, but especially to visit my relatives in Greece! We are a Glenview family and love this community for our practice and our kids! Spend enough time at Blufish, Dairy Bar, or Dairy Queen and you're bound to run into us :)
For many years, we have been proud supporters of the Glenview Education Foundation, Gelfand Foundation, Youth Services of Glenview/Northbrook, the PTAs of all of our surrounding school districts, Wesley Child Care Center, several sports teams and OLPH organizations, the Healthy Kids Running Series, TogetherWeTri, and LVOG. We are all in to keeping this community a great place to live!
Education and Continuing Education
- Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences – University of Chicago
- Doctorate of Dental Surgery – University of Illinois in Chicago
- Master of Science and Orthodontic specialty license – Marquette University
By participating in study groups and forums, and by regularly attending continuing education lectures and courses nationwide through the American Association of Orthodontists, I feel I can keep current on advances in my profession that may benefit my patients’ treatment and overall orthodontic experience.
