Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent staff and orthodontist. I can't say enough about the team. They have always been accommodating and kind. I am very pleased with the results of invisalign; I am only sorry I didn't get braces or invisalign earlier in life.

We cannot be more thankful for the incredible patient centered care that Dr. McDonough and his staff provide. We came to Dr. McDonough for a 2nd opinion after another area orthodontist (who treated one of our older children) made a recommendation that seemed excessive - both from a length of time and cost of treatment. Dr. McDonough produced this amazing smile in half the time and at a fraction of the cost, and kept this athlete comfortable and happy. He is the best orthodontist around!

Dr. McDonough and his entire office staff are great!. My two children were both patients of Dr. McDonough and we were completely satisfied with the care given to them. It is rare to find a doctor's office where the care given is really personal, but that is just what we found at this office. Scheduling is easy and flexible, and even now as their orthodontic treatments are finished, it is great to still be able to contact the office with any questions or concerns. Thanks again.

Always a great experience with Dr and staff. Everyone is pleasant and accommodating. Dr McDonough is great! Very best at what he does. Used another orthodontist for my older child before switching. No comparison!
