Paid $3K+ for Invisalign with the promise that my teeth would be straight by the end of the treatment. My teeth were not complicated at all. The treatment took too long for the dental offices liking. When I needed my last set of trays to finally get my teeth to be fully straight the practice wanted me to pay an additional $600 for the last set of trays. They positioned that they were helping me out by allowing me to pay in 4 installments of $150. Beware of this place!
Ashley is always great with my son. Professional and friendly. Thank you Ashley and Las Vegas Braces.
I’ve been coming here for 4 years now. initially my treatment was supposed to be 18 months but with pandemic and other reasons it’s gone up to 4 years now. this office USED to be SO good front desk was amazing. i’m unsure what happened to that staff but this new front desk they have right now does not know how to do there job. everytime i come in they don’t even greet you, they’re always gossiping and talking bad about everyone there to the point where one time when i finished my appointment i walked out to them and they were all hudled in a circle talking bad about the doctor, i stood there just waiting for them to finish so i can get scheduled and when they finally saw me they said “i hope you didn’t hear that!” and laughed. that is so unprofessional and ghetto, and i felt bad bc dr.simister is SO good and the assistants as well it’s just that front desk that needs to learn how to do there job. they have nasty entitled attitudes and i hate that i spent so much money to walk in there and them treat you like that. they also always mess up the appointments, i have to be calling to make sure they set the appointment bc i’ve had it to where i walk out and got “scheduled” and turns out they never actually made me the appointment and want to schedule me a month out when it was their own fault. like i said doctor is amazing and sweet, this office has so much potential it’s just that front staff that doesn’t know what they’re doing and spend too much time gossiping and clowning. spend your money somewhere else!
I love coming to this office. The staff, they are so great and friendly. The drs! They do amazing. A special shout out to Jackie Vanessa and Lori. They are always so helpful and patient. I would recommend anyone I know to come here.
I would like to share my recent experience at your office. Overall, my visit was positive, particularly due to the professionalism and kindness of the dental assistants, who made my child's first treatment visit a pleasant one. However, I did encounter some challenges with the front desk staff, specifically with Dana, whose customer service was not up to par. Additionally, several individuals I referred reported difficulties in scheduling appointments, noting long hold times which ultimately led them to seek care elsewhere. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate the quality of care provided by your dental team and hope that these concerns can be addressed to enhance the overall experience for future patients.
