 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's probably been 20+ years since I got my braces taken off but I had extremely crooked teeth and it wasn't even a challenge for Jim. I started going here when they still had their old office. They were extremely friendly and professional and I appreciate it. Glad to see you guys are still at it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing orthodontist office and staff. I went here YEARS ago and had an amazing experience. My kids  dentist originally had recommended ROG due to a bit more extensive treatment for one of my kiddos. I wish I would not have listened. While ROG was “fine” (perhaps questionable and a lot of issues but part of another conversation) Petras was more than capable of treating my daughter with the same talent, respect, expertise and not to mention thousands less $$. I wish I would have also sent my son here. Point is, look no further. The staff treats you like family, and it’s small and personal and what you want when it comes to your kids orthodontics (vs an assembly line).
