We love Dr. Shems and staff! I remember going to the orthodontist when I was young; it was a hole in the wall, down dark steps, into a dreary, outdated office that I never wanted to go to. Dr. Shems is so the opposite. It is open, bright, inviting.

There are multiple places to sit in comfort while you wait, colorful artwork/pictures and some cool distractions (like this frost wall!). The technology progressive. There is an app where scans are uploaded and you can communicate with the doctor. Even new offerings like the Invisalign palate expander (who knew?) My son’s favorite, the “ortho bucks” which he can redeem for prizes.

Dr. Shems and her entire staff provide excellent service. They do a great job interacting with the kids and keeping them calm during all appointments by talking them through each step. My daughter loves that her smile is getting better every day!!

Dr. Shems is an absolute delight! She is knowledgeable, thorough, and truly takes the time and care to get to know her patients. She went above and beyond to improve my smile and I could not be more grateful. Her entire office is inviting and makes the whole experience comfortable from start to finish. Thank you, Dr. Shems!

We love Dr Shems and everyone in the office! We have been coming here for a couple of years for both kids — each time, we are greeted by the most wonderful people. Everyone has such a sweet way with the kids — empowering and encouraging — and the whole office runs so efficiently.

On top of everything, we feel like we are in the best possible hands, and have been so happy with the progress. Thank you!
