About San Antonio Orthodontics - Oakwell Farms
Dr. Jesse M. Medina is known for opening the office after hours to fix a broken retainer, and for remembering patients years after braces come off.
Reviews here return again and again to retainer service — repairs, replacements, and permanent retainer installs come up far more than at a typical practice, often handled the same day. Dr. Medina is described as remembering patients years later and opening the office after hours for urgent fixes, which points to a level of responsiveness that shows up repeatedly. Parents also note early intervention catching issues before braces were needed, and several mention costs that felt manageable, including a military discount.

I’ve been coming here for a couple of years now and have never had a bad experience! About a year ago, I was officially dismissed, but I recently had to come back in because my retainer came loose. Coree fixed me right up immediately! I'm forever grateful for the amazing care here. Highly recommend!

I’ve been coming here since I was in middle school, and now I’m a senior in college. Over the years, the staff has become like family to me, always making me feel welcomed and cared for. Dr. Medina is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in his patients’ well-being. If you’re looking for a place that treats you like more than just a patient, I highly recommend Dr. Medina and his team.
