With my last son getting his braces on this year, I have now have three boys in braces with Dr. Feller. We were referred to him by our pediatric dentist (Dr. Colleen Taylor - she's great, too), and have thanked her profusely ever since! Dr. Feller and his staff ensure our appointments are all fast and efficient, yet we never feel as though we are being rushed out the door or just another object on an assembly line, even when we have been worked into their busy schedule for a quick repair when a bracket has broken off. Dr. Feller is a fantastic communicator and I always leave his office knowing exactly what he has done that visit as well as his plans for the future with each of my boys' orthodontic treatment.\r

Dr. Feller also does not push for extra revenue. For instance, in a preliminary (FREE) exam, while the baby teeth were still present, my youngest son's permanent teeth appeared to not be in a good position to come in properly. Since there was still the possibility that they would come in fine, Dr. Feller gave me several options and together we decided to check my son's progress every three months. By exercising this extra attention to detail with his digital x-rays and additional preliminary exams (did I mention they were FREE?), my son's permanent teeth came in just fine without any extra costs for expansion appliances, surgery, or other unnecessary services. As a single mother, I really appreciated his caring, concern, and attention to detail.\r

There are always great Pixar movies for the patients to watch during their visits, and even the waiting room has a TV in a side room to entertain the non-patient siblings during your visit. We have also used their emergency after-hours service - they were wonderful and met us with smiles and excellent care. When I get my boys out of braces, I plan to get my teeth straightened as well (lucky for me, he's not a ""just for kids"" orthodontist)!\r

Oh yes, and don't forget - there are always warm cookies for the patients to enjoy at the end of each visit, and a fun Summer party held to celebrate the patients and their fantastic smiles!!
