I had an amazing experience throughout my orthodontic treatment! Dr. Hamilton and the entire team were always friendly, professional, and made every visit enjoyable. The orthodontic assistants were wonderful—they always answered my questions, made me feel comfortable, and took great care of me. I’m beyond happy with my new smile. I catch myself smiling so much now that people are probably wondering what I’m up to! 😄 It was definitely worth the journey. Thank you, Dr. Hamilton, and the entire team, for your patience, kindness, and excellent care. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who treats you like family and gives you results you’ll love, this is the place to go. I highly recommend them!
We had an amazing experience at Hamilton Orthodontics! My daughter received a palate expander and braces, and I completed Invisalign treatment, and we couldn't be happier with the care we received. From the very beginning, the entire staff was welcoming, friendly, and incredibly helpful. Dr. Hamilton is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the treatment process for both of us. We always knew what to expect, which made the experience smooth and stress-free. The team genuinely cares about their patients, and it shows in every interaction. We always felt well taken care of, and the results have exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Hamilton Orthodontics to anyone looking for exceptional orthodontic care. Thank you to Dr. Hamilton and the entire team for such a wonderful experience!
When you can get in it's great,I was 10 mins late the traffic sucks on falls of neuse all hours of the day and after going from Wendell NC to Raleigh apt cancelled, receptionist didn't even bother to see if the Doc could still see us, very unprofessional
I truly cannot say enough good things about Dr. Hamilton and his team. I started orthodontic treatment as an adult, and it has been way more complicated and emotional than I expected. I have had a lot going on with my teeth, and I honestly do not know how I would be getting through this whole teeth saga without Dr. Hamilton. He is patient, honest, kind, and really good at explaining what is happening without making me feel overwhelmed. I never feel rushed or dismissed, even when I have a million questions or when my teeth decide to create a new problem. It really feels like he is in my corner, and that has meant a lot. The whole office makes a big difference too. The front desk staff is always kind and easy to talk to, which I appreciate because scheduling orthodontic appointments as an adult is its own little puzzle. The hygienists and clinical team are also great. They are gentle, reassuring, and make every visit feel a little less stressful. Also, I have to mention the Lego collection because it is genuinely impressive. He has some really cool builds, and I respect an orthodontist with that level of Lego taste. Plus, they have ice cream for everyone, no matter your age, which is the kind of orthodontic perk I fully support. :) Thank you, Dr. Hamilton!!!
Amanda was friendly and informative when I called to inquire about a permanent retainer for my daughter.
