What patients say

Vibe: family-friendly

Overwhelmingly positive with 12 five-star reviews praising staff warmth (especially Heather), excellent orthodontic care, family-friendly atmosphere, and comfort-focused treatment. However, one recent one-star review raises serious concerns about appointment scheduling reliability, wait times of 15-30 minutes past scheduled times, and difficulty booking appointments, with one patient reporting dread about visits after initially loving the practice eight months prior.
