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.

Nightmare Orthodontist
Telehealth
Coming from a former patient, Dr. Garcia at first seems to have all the qualities you look for in a Orthdontist. Caring, compassionate, very empathetic and willing to go the extra mile for your treatment. This however is not the case at all. I had a lot of faith and trust in Dr. Garcia but once the contract is signed he will base your treatment on the expiration date of the contract and will not finish treatment if it goes beyond that date. Aside from leaving me with a cross bite and with a very narrow smile, he reassured me my teeth will “settle” after the braces come off. Not only does he do a poor execution in his treatment, he lies to cover his mistakes. Be aware he will shave your teeth as much as possible to speed up treatment and to cover his inability to properly align your teeth. Very expensive as well and you will more than likely have to finish treatment at a different location. Highly avoid at all costs!

Demeaning people-do not accommodate for appt changes, retaliate against you if you ever complain - orthodontist isn’t nice either. It’s a shame. I wish people would leave accurate reviews so people would be saved from this place.
