★★★★★ We had an amazing experience at Schimmel Orthodontics! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Lucy at the front desk was so sweet, warm, and helpful—and Gibson, their adorable office dog, gave us an extra-special welcome too! Dr. Schimmel took his time with our son, Leo, and explained everything about his braces clearly and thoroughly. He made sure we understood the process and what to expect, which made us feel comfortable and confident that Leo is in great hands. The entire experience felt professional, caring, and personal. We are so happy we chose Schimmel Orthodontics and highly recommend them to any family looking for excellent orthodontic care. Thank you from the Espinosa Family! 💙🦷

He’s the best. He fixed my son’s teeth years ago and now my daughter’s. My son had double row among other issues. My daughter had an over bite every where I went they told me that it couldn’t be fix, but Dr. Schimmel fixed it. Thank you, and the staff is wonderful

I cannot say enough good things about my experience! From the very first visit, the entire team made me feel welcome, comfortable, and confident that I was in the best hands. Dr. Schimmel and the whole clinical team provided truly exceptional care. I got my braces less than six months ago, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results—my teeth are now perfectly straight! Spark aligners were faster and more effective than I ever expected. Every appointment was smooth, professional, and pain-free. They explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I was always comfortable. A special shout-out to Lucy! She is an absolute gem. Lucy is friendly, efficient, and incredibly helpful with all the paperwork, insurance, and billing details. She went above and beyond to make everything seamless and stress-free. Her warm smile and positive attitude always made coming in a pleasure.

I’ve had an excellent experience with Dr. Schimmel and the entire staff throughout my orthodontic treatment so far. Dr. Schimmel has been extremely professional, knowledgeable, and attentive during every visit. He always takes the time to explain the process clearly and ensures that I feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. The office is clean, organized, and the staff is consistently welcoming and respectful. Although my treatment is still in progress, my results so far have been amazing. Every month I continue to see significant progress, and I honestly can’t describe how good it feels to see such positive changes in my smile. I’m extremely satisfied with the care I’ve received and highly recommend Dr. Schimmel and his team to anyone seeking outstanding orthodontic care.
