Beyond being super nice - and making my smile better week by week … it’s rare that you come across someone who actually cares about your whole being - not just your teeth or just your medicine - but actually you as a whole person …

Great communicator; came for a second opinion and left with an understanding that had not been imparted to me in three years of treatment with my first orthodontist.
Office staff were great as well.

I really appreciate the quality of service along with flexible appointments and the effort towards working on my demanding work schedule. His ability to put patients at ease. Providing clear explanations of the process along the way mark it all worth it. I would recommend Sunnyside Service. I wish they took Union coverage for my daughter.
