"When I first went to Dr Cook, I was in the process of completing my braces journey with a childhood dentist. I could see that I was not going to have the smile I wanted and therefore I decided to see Dr Cook and share my concerns. During my first apt with Dr Cook, he told me it was possible he may not meet my expectations, but I am so glad I switched to him anyway. Dr Cook went above and beyond, and exceeded my expectations. It’s been 2 years since I completed my orthodontic treatment with Dr Cook and I am still very happy with my final results."
