Good

  • Nice people, mostly efficient when coming for an appointment, fast check-ups.
  • I found out at the beginning my previous orthodontist regularly left wire too long even after saying it was but my current orthodontist has been amazing.
  • My appointments were always completed quickly; however, my first orthodontist would never give me any info about when I was getting them off but since he left & I got a new doctor, I’ve actually been given information & have had them off.
  • I feel as if all nurses & doctors have been very informative & given me the correct support & advice when it comes to taking care of my teeth.
  • Good response to issues. Maybe cater more to each mouth shape more carefully to avoid the need for issues to be fixed.
  • Staff have been great. Appointments always start late.
  • The first person we saw made me feel uncomfortable & was abrupt but after he left everyone has been lovely.
  • Very good service & nice people, however some delays.
