“I had a great experience. The team was so friendly and nice. Never had a bad encounter, even when I brought my kids to appointments, they were so sweet and kind to them and made them feel included and welcomed. I am very impressed with their customer service. They explain what they are doing when they are doing it. They make sure you know what to expect. I highly recommend coming here for your ortho needs.”
