Dr. Dobbs and her team are amazing! Very professional and easy to work with. Their appointment system is on point! You get text reminders and they do their best to work with your schedule and get you in when they can! I walked out of one appointment and my stubborn tooth broke off a bracket and I was their last appointment of the day so I thought I’d have to reschedule for another time but they took me right then in there after closing and fixed me up. They have such a welcoming atmosphere and I can’t recommend them enough!

Amazing experience! Dr Dobbs and all of her staff are amazing! Best of all, I’m not sure we ever had to wait in all the years of taking my daughter there for appointments. They ran a on-time schedule and it is so much appreciated!

I had an amazing experience, and I'm so glad they were able to fit me in their schedule! My retainer broke and they were so gentle removing it. Also, the office was beautiful, and so clean! Dr. Dobbs and the team were really nice. Thank you!!

Dr. Dobs and all of her staff are kind, thorough and extremely skilled. Our kiddo just finished two years in braces, and every single visit we had was delightful. When we had an issue with a bracket early on, they fit us in same day for a fix. They have all been really great about clearly explaining what is going to happen before doing it (which is really helpful for our kid), and are gentle and warm when they are working. The braces corrected for extreme crowding, bite adjustment, and lots of out of place teeth, and all is perfect now. I just cannot say enough positive things about our experience. We came via a recommendation from a friend, and will be recommending Dobbs to everyone we know in return.

12 out 10 recommend Dobbs Orthodontics! We were referred to Dobbs by our kiddos dentist, and it’s been the best experience. Our 8 year old needed an expander for his very narrow mouth, and he rocked his braces for a year & half. Now his teeth look AMAZING!!! Everything was priced out for us and was VERY reasonable. The staff is EXTREMELY friendly and always were so helpful when a band broke or a wire slipped. Dr Dobbs, I can’t say enough great things about her!!! Super friendly, always smiling, and very knowledgeable. We are so thankful for Dr Dobbs and her entire team!!
