I have been a patient with Lane and Associates for several years and I have never recommended any other place to go. I have always had a great experience. I decided to get braces a few years ago and finally went through with the process. I couldn’t be happier with the results!! I am so happy with the team here at lane and associates they are kind, informative and helpful. When my daughter is at the age to get braces I know this will be my first and only stop. Highly recommend!!!
My experience has been great, from the front desk staff to the clinical assistants to Dr Kryn. The way they have all been with explaining and working with specific appointment times has been wonderful. The greatest encouragement I have received from them all on my decision to get braces later in life has let me know it’s the best decision I have made.
Dr Kryn has wonderful knowledge and beside manner. We love him. His front office staff is so polite, helpful, and constantly making our visits pleasant. We will only come to Dr Kryn and his staff!
Absolutely terrible, I was sent to the oral surgery department for wisdom tooth extraction and I was told that I had to use laughing gas because I had undiagnosed sleep apnea after saying I had never been diagnosed with it. The doctor saw me for less than 5 minutes and didn’t tell me anything on how the procedure would be done. I was just told I would be getting my wisdom teeth pulled. I canceled my appointment immediately after finding another place where they were nice and explained how everything would go. I do not recommend. Highly unprofessional.
Dr Brader and his entire staff were all amazing! They got me in asap with a painful cracked tooth and have been guiding me through the whole process. I will continue to drive 2 1/2 hours each way to be in their care.
