My six year old daughter had her first appointment yesterday, and I have nothing but great things to say. Everyone, from the front desk to Dr. Propp were amazing!
Nick, the top orthodontist in Washington State, uses the latest technology, allowing you to see your smile change in real time. 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Very comfortable and informative consultation today. I’m looking forward to getting my teeth corrected with them! I’m in good hands.
The experience with Dr. Propp and staff was beyond my expectations. So caring and knowledgeable and just wanted the best for me. I would recommend Dr. Propp to anyone, young or old. I actually looked forward to my appts. there. Thanks for all you do Dr. Propp and staff...........
10/10 🥹💗💗💗💗 I just finished my orthodontic treatment at Propper Smiles, and I’m so impressed! Dr. Propp and his team Genesis, Kelly, and are incredibly kind and attentive to all of my needs. Dr. Propp even messaged me personally to check in after I got my braces and opened the office on a Friday just to fix a poking wire so I wouldn’t have to go the weekend with the wire poking me. 🥹🤗💗 Him and his staff are very kind and gentle and they know their stuff! They are very knowledgeable and guided me through this entire process so it was smooth and as painless as possible! Truly above and beyond care. Kelly called me in advance when my retainers got in and she got me into the office right away to get my braces off! I am literally so thrilled with my teeth I could not be happier. As you can see they are pretty darn perfect. Doctor Propp even took his time to lightly file down my teeth to really make them look aesthetically, symmetric, and pleasing, which I am so so so so grateful for. I am never going anywhere else! I couldn’t recommend them more! :) 💗💗💗 Thank you so so much propper smiles ortho!!!
