My child just got braces put on today. Hershey Orthodontics staff was very friendly, explained braces care clearly, were very kind and patient with my questions. I'd recommend this orthodontist because they seem to really care about their patients.

Went today for a consultation and really loved everyone there. The office is clean and very cute. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They explained everything very thoroughly and took time to answer all my questions. It was a great experience. I'm someone who used to have extreme fear of dental offices and procedures. I felt completely comfortable, almost like I was visiting old friends. If I could give them ten stars, I would.

My experience with Dr. Hershey and team was great, even though I had to hear not so exciting news. She gave it to me in such a professional manner. I wish that I had her as my original Orthodontist. The precautions that were made because of Covid-19 made me feel comfortable and did not inconvenience me at all.

I took my daughter to Dr Hershey office and they are great we were meet at the door and everyone had mask on but we could feel the smile through the mask. They were on top of my paper work and insurance benefits and provided us with so much information on treatment. We can't wait to go back to get our treatment done.
