Completely unprofessional office. We arrived on time for my child’s appointment at 8:15am, the office was closed and no one arrived until about 8:20. No phone call or anything to let us know they were running late. Then Lauren, who claims to be the office manager, said the appointment “must’ve been for 8:30”. Then she says the appointment is actually at 12:15pm but they’ll see my child earlier. Never apologized for being late, never apologized for making us fill out forms in the dark (since she had yet to turn on the lights), made no attempts to find out what the “miscommunication”

Dr Dowling is a very good orthodontist. We went there based on a recommendation, and after meeting other doctors in the area, decided he was the most cost effective and best orthodontist to fix my daughters teeth.
She was not the easiest patient. But his even temper and understanding with her dental anxiety showed time and time again.
The staff are kind and friendly. They work with you and always have a smile, which is good because that’s what they are helping us achieve.

I had an incredible experience with Dr. Dowling and his team. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get their smile straightened out. Everyone is professional and act as though they truly want to give you the best possible experience while you have your braces on. I never felt as though the wait times were beyond what the normal wait period is for a doctor’s office. Dr. Dowling was never in a rush while reviewing my progress and always clearly communicated his next steps and what his plan was to get my teeth to move. The professional attitude continued to the front of the office as they
