Orthodontics combines my interests in psychology,science, and art.I love what I do because Imeet people of all ages and have an opportunity to connect with them.Learning about patients interests, achievements, goals, and what is happening in their lives makes the office a fun and lively place. For many people, orthodontic treatment is a life-changing event and I am truly grateful and humbled to be part of that process.I love seeing the positive change in self-confidence that comes with the creation of a beautiful and functional smile.

As usual, your office is very professional and puts you at ease. I was worried when I first started that I would seem out of my element. This is not the case. As a healthcare professional myself, I appreciate the care you provide.

Love everyone at this practice. Friendly, real, and informed. They could teach a class on how to treat patients with dignity, respect, and a little humor. I wish more dental and medical offices operated the way they do.

We were vacationing nearby with my family and my daughter's wire from her braces broke off. I called the office and they were very accommodating to us. They helped me right away, ga e my daughter extra wax and took care of the issue with her braces. The office was very clean and the staff was extremely nice. Thank you very much for saving the day.
