Dr. Cook and his team have completely transformed my orthodontic experience. As someone who was…read moreinitially anxious about getting braces, I couldn't be more grateful to have found such an exceptional practice. From the moment you walk into the office, you know you're in good hands. The reception area is immaculate, equipped with comfortable seating Dr. Cook's expertise truly sets him apart. He takes the time to explain every step of the treatment process using clear, understandable language and digital imaging technology that helps you visualize the end results. What impressed me most is his attention to detail - he created a customized treatment plan that considered not just my dental alignment, but also my facial structure and long-term oral health. The staff deserves special recognition. Each team member, from the dental assistants to the billing coordinator, demonstrates remarkable professionalism and genuine care for patients. The dental assistants are particularly skilled, making adjustments with a gentle touch that minimizes discomfort. The office is equipped with the latest orthodontic technology, including digital X-rays and 3D scanning, eliminating the need for those uncomfortable traditional molds. Their sterilization protocols are impeccable, and they've implemented excellent safety measures throughout the practice. my smile is on its way to being completely transformed, and the improvement in my confidence is remarkable. Dr. Cook's perfectionism ensured that every tooth is perfectly aligned, and his attention to my bite functionality means I'm not just going to look better, but my dental health has improved significantly. I highly recommend Dr. Cook to anyone seeking orthodontic treatment. Whether you're considering traditional braces, clear aligners, or other orthodontic solutions, you'll be in excellent hands with this practice. Five stars doesn't seem enough to rate this exceptional orthodontic experience.

I've been going to Dr. Cook since 1991- I had a MASSIVE overbite, and impacted eye tooth and four…read moreimpacted wisdom teeth. I was an orthodontists dream- my mouth is probably worth upwards of $20,000 at this point for braces and surgeries combined. In '91Dr. Cook had a small practice with four chairs and one or two hygienist assistants but came highly recommended in the neighborhood. Now, almost twenty years later, the office has expanded to eight regular appointment chairs, he's brought in another Doctor and two or three main assistants (I know Laura is one- she's been there at LEAST as long as I have) as well as about ten other assistants. There are two things I can mention about Dr. Cook (fondly, of course) First, he calls everyone "Dear" (he's become known as Dr. Dear in my family). More importantly, however, patients will quickly discover the pride he takes in his work- I recently went back after a seven year hiatus because my permanent lower retainer was causing me gum problems and instead of removing it like I wanted, he encouraged me to do it the right way, preserve the work he did ten years back and got me three sets of invisalign retainers (only charging me for the lab fees) to move those suckers back into place, removed the retainer and put a new model in. He's just good- and takes pride in his work. I was reading one of the articles from Best of Philly hanging in his office (he's been named best ortho for countless years) and this year I noticed he'll turn 60- so I'm curious what his plans for retirement are. I hope that after many years of bring the right people in to work with him the practice will move on in the spirit of his work (especially since my kids will more than likely inherit the snaggle teeth that both me and my husband seem to have...)!

Met directly…read moreby the dentist and hygienist who were friendly and quickly took several X-rays as a baseline. Dentist said that I needed to get my old fillings replaced as they were "leaking" and could be further damage. I had a dentist verbalize this to me previously as something that may come up in the future so I wasn't too alarmed. "We aren't doing anything today, we will schedule you for two appointments in the future where we can replace these old ones and we will clean your teeth then". I felt a little surprised and suddenly rushed and wish I had said something then, but didn't. It didn't feel right. What I find disappointing in hindsight is that my X-ray results were never reviewed with me, that absolutely nothing was done the first appointment even though I had taken time off to be there and the expectation that I will take even more time off for these services. If nothing else I felt like my time was not respected; the time I had to take off from work, to get there, and then schedule additional appointments. If this is how they run things then it should be clarified that the first appointment is a "CONSULTATION" and that it is likely that no work will take place. I suspect they make a little extra by breaking up the visits this way and that may be the motivation behind it or the doctor was running behind and punted.

After the visit, they demand me to pay half of the ceramic crown that wasn't even started! I told them I can't pay that money af we didn't get the crown done. They insist that we needed to pay half of the money that day as the thoot was cleaned and they had placed a cap which really, came off the same day. I ended paying a lot mof money out o my pocket wich made me very upset. This year, my son got his rooth canal and the ceramic crown in another place, however, Media Dental is insisting in billing me foor the ceramic crown and also, submitting a claim to my insurance.

I am preparing a formal complain for charging for a treatment they haven't done, and for all the stress they has caused me due to the harrasment they are doing, sending constant threats to put me in collection agency.

They have always been amazing. Although they can get busy at times, they still do their best to fit us in whenever possible. The staff is incredibly kind, patient, and always honest and straightforward. The office is clean, and while the waiting area is small, it has never been an issue. Occasionally, other patients may be rude, but that is completely beyond the staff's control. Once you're brought to the back, the treatment rooms are spacious, which is especially helpful when accompanying my youngest child. The team has an immense amount of patience, something I truly appreciate firsthand. My son was not the easiest patient for several years, and they always made me feel comfortable--never embarrassed. I could say so many wonderful things about this office.

Even the outside area and parking lot are dirty and very tight spaces to navigate - really not ideal for children and just a germ zest pool.
