Took my 9 y/o daughter in for a consultation yesterday and was greeted by an amazing staff. Dr. Bivins provided services a few years ago for my son who needed braces and because of the outstanding service that I received, it was only right to take my daughter to him as well. Dr. Bivins and his staff are awesome and they made my daughter feel at ease when she got her braces put on yesterday.

This was my first time going to Bivins orthodontics and it was an amazing experience there. The staff is courteous and knowledgeable. Dr. Bivins has a knack for making you feel comfortable and is very comforting in what he lets you know about your teeth. I felt very pleased in his decisions and at ease

The staff here is professional from the front desk to the exam rooms. I am so happy my family has this team to care for our orthodontic needs. They have been consistent from the beginning (almost a year and a half now).

Dr. Bivins and his knowledgeable staff transformed my smile in just a few, short months. I am so happy and much more confident with my smile! All of the staff I've encountered are super sweet and helpful throughout the process. Additionally, Bivins offers numerous, affordable payment plans to fit your budget. I'm so happy I stumbled across this practice! I would recommend this business to anyone seeking quality care and great results.

My husband and I both chose Bivins Orthodontics to receive our adult orthodontic care. After research, interviewing and visiting other practices, we chose Bivins. Dr. Bivins has excellent credentials and is very personable. His office's atmosphere is upbeat and bright, and his staff are all friendly and competent. We are very happy with our results and highly recommend Bivins Orthodontics to others.

I am so happy to have found this awesome practice! My original orthodontist has been retired for years and I have not been to a new place since until being referred over to Bivins. The staff and Orthodontist are all very genuine, honest, and friendly people. They will make sure you are taken care of. What a relief it is to find a new orthodontist home! Highly recommend to everyone in the Hampton Roads area!!

Dr. Bivins, is very good with children. They keep you very informed, step by step. His staff is outstanding, they are always smiling, and very helpful. I would tell all my family and friends to go here. And the best thing is, the kids aren't afraid to go, they are actually excited. That should say it all.

The staff at Bivens Orthodontist are extremely professional. The passion they show for the awesome work that they do is beyond measure. They are truly changing peoples lives daily. I just got my braces off and could not be happier. I trust them with what they do that I have both my Son and Daughter going through braces with them. If you are not happy with your smile don't hesitate. It does not matter how old you are to make a change. I waited long enough and got them when I was 37. Thank you Bivens orthodontist team.
