Dr. Welge and his staff are top notch. All three of my children have been treated with the highest standards of orthodontic care! One of my sons was a very complicated orthodontic case. This team is patient and kind, they all went above and beyond for him. They got to know our three kids personally. Dr. Welge even delivered retainers to our front door!! Thank you for all you do, Dr. Welge and team. You are providing the best in patient care and orthodontics!

Dr. Welge and his orthodontic staff are the best of the best. We have been patients here for many years for multiple kids. The kindness, care, and concern shown for patients is top notch and my kids have always felt comfortable here. Dr. Welge explains things incredibly well and presents great information to help make the best decision for what our kids have needed. I wouldn't trust my kids' orthodontic work to anyone else! Highly, highly recommend.

Dr. Welge and his staff are excellent, kind, and patient. I have had multiple children and myself treated here. Dr. Welge takes the time to discuss his thoughts and plan of action, and cost of service. There were several options for treatment plans and Dr. Welge discussed the pros and cons of each, gave recommendations and patiently answered ALL of my questions throughout the process. A great experience all around!
