Hello. I walked into the environment that was clean, having no signs of negativity. Receptionist was warm and pleasant. I explained my concerns of the visit and she listened. Keep in mind, not only is she a greeter, she is apart of a beautiful team that knows the business. I met three staff members that has never seen me before but my concern was important enough to satisfy the needs. There wasn't an interuption of not being familiar with my concerns but professionalism of knowing the problem, steps of proceeding, and resolving the issue. There is a time frame in life for everything that we do. I didn't have to question, or second guess on anything. Mostly, there weren't any second thoughts of me being unsure of my visit. I Since having braces on from this company and location, I have made multiple trips, which led to discomfort, pain, ftustration, headaches, not being able to perform my daily life, specially at work. If I had known of the company being on James Island, I would have taken my service over. I'm glad we met.
