I would describe my experience at Dr. Aliu's office as the best medical appointment I have had to date. From the moment I walked in until I left, all of my standards and beyond were met. My hygienist, Ms. Trish, was affable, respectful and very knowledgeable of her skill. The atmosphere in the office is pleasant, happy, cheerful, clean and welcoming. I commend Dr. Aliu for operating a well-run business. It is evident that her business mirrors her. It was a great experience.

More about Dr. Emike Usman-Aliu, DDS
As part of my job, I meet a variety of people and help put smiles on their faces. I particularly love seeing the progression from the start of treatment to the end.The joy patients express in being able to smile bigger and wider every day as corrections are being made is contagious. I’m extremely honored to have the opportunity to provide such a service.
The relationships I build with patients and their families during the course of treatment usually lasts a lifetime. Providing treatment for one member of the family usually opens the door to other family members and friends. I always look forward to strengthening such relationships by meeting more people and their families. We at Elite Orthodontics strive in promoting such Positivity and growth.

The entire staff was professional and pleasant. I was welcomed in a warm and friendly environment. I was seen right away. Explanations were thorough with freedom of choice, which made me feel comfortable. I was only there for a consultation, but wanted to get to work right away following my visit. Dr. Usman-Aliu was very proactive in getting in contact with my dentist to ensure that the pacing made sense with my current dental plan.
