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.

Worst practice ever. Long wait time, miserable staff. Belittling, condescending and rude. Apparently, they are unclear that I am the paying client. Need to work on their communication and general bedside manner.

Such a wonderful place. Everyone there go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and comfortable. They made my sons first experience so great. They are so informative and make understanding the process easy. You can tell they take great pride in their work. So happy we chose Dr Difranco as our orthodontist.

I've been to 4 orthodontists in the past 2 months. This was by far the best experience I've had. Everyone was kind and accommodating from beginning to end. Dr. Difranco easily and quickly resolved my issue at a fair price. I felt taken care of and that all my needs were addressed with no unnecessary costs or procedures. I'm so grateful!

Today was an exceptional experience. I called in for a repair to my daughters braces. Lil answered and went through some potential options of appointment times for the week. When none of the worked for us, we scheduled something for the following week. Lil called me back a few minutes later. She had taken it upon herself to speak with Dr. DiFranco. She was concerned that there might be some shifting of a tooth if it was not repaired. She convinced Dr. DiFranco to squeeze her in the same evening. Lil epitomizes taking ownership of a situation and understanding fully the business as a whole, not just her small segment. Lil, thank you for seeing each situation on its own merits and acting in accordance. Hope you are employee of the week!

Dr. DiFranco and his orthodontic and office staff are exceptional. The highest level of care is delivered with expertise, professionalism, and compassion by all. All phases of the treatment were explained carefully and questions were welcomed and answered. Appointments are scheduled and carried out like clockwork and the office works well in cooperation with school schedules and other dental appointments. My granddaughter has wonderful results after her braces. Thank you so much!

I have to say that Dr. Defranco has been a blessing to my children before seeing him my daughter was told she needed oral surgery to fix a locked jaw. Dr. Defranco was referred to us by our previous dentist and I have to say the first visit he reassured us my daughter needed no surgery and he was going to fix her jaw in no time and that's what he did. Hes very kind, funny and professional. My kids just had their braces taken out this past few months and they look great. I highly recommend Dr. Defranco to everyone he really cares for his patients and always makes them feel important. A very professional, caring ,knowledgeable helpful staff. I'm going to miss them all

We don't have braces yet but have been seen multiple times. He is monitoring my daughters baby teeth as we prepare for braces because she has a few complications. He is wonderful! We are never rushed and explains everything. The staff is amazing and the kids love going to the office. The office is beautiful and so welcoming!

My son had his braces removed today and we couldn’t be happier with Dr. DiFranco! He is such an educated, friendly, thorough Orthodontist. He sticks to the timeline, and the results are amazing! He and his staff made getting braces a lot easier. The office staff is so kind! They are effective and efficient as well. The office is clean and welcoming. We never had to wait too long after our appointment time to see the doctor. Our other son will be getting braces soon, and we will definitely be returning to DiFranco Orthodontics—there’s no other place like it!

Started Nov 2018 as an adult with second round of braces. First round in the 1970’s, all my teeth shifted. I did Invisalign’s. Appointments worked around my busy work schedule. Mar 2019, started retainer. Very pleased with the results!!! I would highly recommend Dr DiFranco and his well trained machine. His staff is so professional. I would highly recommend. I am also in health care and they are truly up to date on treatments.
