Dr. Barlow is amazing!! I had the best experience. The whole team is so nice, and Dr. Barlow took the time to carefully answer all of my questions. After going through ortho treatment in the past, it’s incredible to see all the advancements their office has and the new technology. They made the experience seamless.
Dr. Gimlen and Staff are wonderful. Compassionate and technology forward: Gimlen Ortho delivers. Three of four family members are now in various stages of their care. A child of a Dentist Father, I value quality dental work. Dr. Gimlen and her staff deliver quality, results and more.
Highly recommend! I have done 2 rounds of Invisalign with other providers. My son is doing a round with Gimlen and it is already a better experience. Kind, patient, and knowledgeable.
