By far the best experience in dentistry I've ever had! Dr. Doppel and her staff make it magical, from estimating the services in an easy to understand way, to consistent appointments where everyone makes you feel welcome. You can tell they really enjoy what they do and enjoy working together. I'm beyond happy with my results!
The entire staff was very friendly, attentive and very professional. They treat each patient with care and understanding to provide the best treatment possible. I’m truly happy I chose this office for orthodontics. I recommend to everyone to make Pacific Orthodontics the first stop when searching for orthodontic treatment.
I walked in with little confidence that my top teeth could be straightened, and walked out 8 months later with a great smile. Dr. Dopple and staff are incredible - they treat you professionally but at the same time, just like you are part of the family. I had an amazing experience and will miss them - I don't say that a lot about anything dental! LOL
I was told I might need a second jaw surgery. Thankfully, I got a second opinion first. When I first moved to Seattle, I was dealing with ongoing bite issues despite already having had orthognathic surgery (upper and lower), wearing braces, and wearing Invisalign. Another provider here told me more surgery might be necessary. Dismayed, I sought a second opinion at Pacific Orthodontics, and am so grateful I did. Dr. Doppel recommended taking the Invisalign off entirely, skipping additional surgery, and instead pursuing myofunctional therapy. That recommendation has been genuinely life-changing. She has a deep understanding of how anxiety, mouth-breathing, tongue posture, and jaw clenching are all interconnected and how they affect orthodontic outcomes. Her bedside manner is the best I've encountered anywhere. I also want to highlight the front office staff, who are consistently friendly and responsive whenever I've had questions about my retainer or mouth guard. Everyone in this office is excellent, from the clinical team to the front desk. If you've had frustrating experiences at other dental practices in Seattle, Pacific Orthodontics is worth the visit!
I heartily recommend Dr. Doppel. She is a highly skilled orthodontist who also communicates clearly. Her staff are proficient and friendly. My emails and questions were promptly answered and the two referrals I needed during treatment worked out well. In her care, I completed treatment (braces) sooner than estimated or expected. Based on my experience as an adult patient, I am certain Dr. Doppel is good with children and makes the orthodontia experience fun for them.
