What patients say

Vibe: professional

This practice shows stark contrasts between extremely loyal long-term patients and recent patients with serious concerns. While one 20+ year patient praises Dr. Wells as skilled and professional with excellent follow-up care, multiple recent reviews report significant failures in Invisalign treatment outcomes, disorganized scheduling, rushed procedures, and instances where treatment was performed without proper patient communication or consent. The overall sentiment is mixed but leaning negative due to serious trust and care quality issues.
