During a gas shortage, they didn't inform their patients in advance that a scanner used for making impressions was broken. They waited for patients to show up to the office for their appointments to inform them. People are driving 1+ hours for their appointments only to be told that they can't be seen. A quick phone call or notification would have saved a lot of headache. I recommend going to any of the other orthodontics offices in the area.
