Had an 1115am appointment for a 15min visit. It appears you overbook to maximize income. and my daughter did not get seated until around 12pm and was done around 1215. Her ride was leaving the parking lot just as she finished her appointment

Love this ortho office for their staff and services! Always prompt with appointment times. Their appointment scheduling is so simple. My 16 yr old daughter schedules her appointments on her way out each time. They engage their young patients fully in their orthodontic care which I believe has made for a better experience for the parents and the child! My daughter will be getting her braces off next month and couldn't be happier with her results! I recommend to everyone I know! Thank you Meehan Ortho!
