About Sparks Family Orthodontics
Dr. Ronnie Sparks is described handling complex cases like cleft palate and getting denied insurance claims overturned for families in Charleston.
Dr. Ronnie Sparks and his team are credited with working through long, sometimes complicated treatment plans, including a five-year cleft lip and palate case and successful insurance appeals for teens initially denied coverage. Parents of sensory-sensitive and anxious children note the staff's patience, and several mention emergency fixes handled after hours or on weekends, including one instance where the doctor personally came in on a Sunday. Cost and payment flexibility come up often, with some families noting the practice accepts state insurance and offers payment plans. A smaller group of reviewers report dissatisfaction tied to extraction-based treatment decisions and longer timelines with less satisfying results.
