    My husband has had braces from here for about 2 years now and we finally are getting them off today…read moreand thank god. I wasn't planning on writing a review, but after how we were welcomed to the front desk today? This is needed. I hope my husband is happy with his teeth after this because Jesus they put him through hell. Rude front desk and even dr. Stringer was disappointingly rude. Anyways, I could understand if it was only us that had a bad experience, but my mother in law had a even worse experience and has sought out another orthodontist to fix the botched job they did here. Not only her, but a friend of mine said after getting her braces off and going to her normal dentist, the dentist asked if she was happy with her teeth, because he had thought that her orthodontist didn't do very well. She also told me of a horror story of dr.stringer pulling her bun to get her to sit up higher in a chair while tightening her braces, ummm? Obviously not okay. Very happy to be done with this place, finally. I hope people will choose a different orthodontist.

    I can't say enough about Dr Patel and her staff. They were all professional, kind, and patient with…read moremy occasional discomfort. I had two crowns done. They have the equipment to make the crown there during the appointment, so both times I got it done in one visit. Can't say I enjoyed it, but I knew I was in good hands. Highly recommend!

    I saw Dr. Patel. The dental work itself was good. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience was…read morepainful and unnecessarily traumatic. If you have dental anxiety, avoid this practice. Overall there was poor communication concerning appointment length, a critical problem with, and seeming indifference to pain management during treatment by Dr. Patel. Also, a dental assistant that was apparently not taught the importance of not pinching, or needlessly inflicting pain, or invading personal space made things a whole lot worse. There were incidents of her leaning on me in a manner that was exceedingly uncomfortable and didn't seem to be necessary for the work that she was doing. I was booked for a 1 hour appointment, but after well over an hour, I was informed that the appointment length was actually 4 hours. I had planned on an hour in the afternoon, and only had prescription sunglasses with me, meaning that the long drive home after dark would have to done be wearing darkly tinted sunglasses. By the time I learned this, there was no way to stop the work. Add all of these things in with ptsd, and this was by far the most traumatic medical appointment I have ever endured. The doctor told me that she would request tranquilizers for the next visit, and would reschedule after getting the proper authorization through the VA. I had already waited 6 months for this appointment, so when I didn't hear back, I called the office to check on the appointment. Only then was I informed that because of my PTSD, Dr. Patel had decided that she didn't want to work with me again. While I understood, and the feeling was absolutely mutual, her not communicating this to me at the time caused further frustration and unnecessary delays in receiving proper care. In fact, 7 months later I am still waiting for a new dentist to be approved because of Dr. Patel's unethical delay in informing me of her decision. It would have been best if she had had the ethics and professionalism to communicate this decision to me in a forthright manner that wouldn't have unnecessarily delayed treatment. If you have another option for dental care, take it.
