I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Dr. Kate and her team are amazing and then some. I went into the office not having much hope with a treatment plan. I say this because I've been to other orthodontists and dentists that they didn't seem like I could have my dream smile. That day I met with Carlie and Dr. Kate; I had so much more hope. I was promised the smile I've always dreamed of having. Parrish Orthodontics is the place to go if you are looking for your dream smile!

I had braces put on yesterday (08/22/2024) for the first time and the staff was incredibly sweet! The ortho, Kate, was also very kind and everyone explained what they were doing before doing it. The receptionist ladies got me in before my actual appointment date due to a last minute opening. So glad I decided to go with Parrish! Also the location was very clean and professional. I knew I was in safe hands!

I'm new to Indiana and my orthodontics work was done out of state (many years ago). I only needed a set of replacement retainers. Everyone at Parrish Orthodntics was so friendly that I felt like I've been going there for years! The office is beautiful also. Wonderful experience all around!
