    So, sooo awful. I wouldn't refer this place to my greatest enemy. A few reasons why:…read more 1. *Scheduling is a nightmare.* They have THREE locations, meaning Dr. Trahar is splitting her time between THREE offices. And they take on way more patients than they can realistically service. You'll have better luck scheduling a wedding venue than this orthodontist. And god forbid you can't make an appointment, you'll get bumped by 5+ weeks. At one point, they blamed it on a Covid backlog, but I started treatment before Covid and it was just as bad then (and it's just as bad now at the end of 2023). 2. *Service is overall poor.* Once you do finally get an appointment, you'll see Dr. Trahar for about 3 minutes total. It's wild how unapologetically this woman prioritizes QUANTITY over quality (see point #1). After a year of sub-par treatment, I confronted Dr. Trahar on what I believed she was doing poorly (not fixing my snaggle tooth), and she told me, "Kiddo (I'm 30+), your expectations of straight teeth might be a little too high". 3. *You'll pay a premium.* Despite the two points above, Dr. Trahar charges substantially more than most orthodontists. Before starting treatment, I had 4 consultations and she was by far the most expensive. Silly me, I assumed higher price led to better service, but now I see how wrong I was. I've paid this orthodontist $6k to straighten my teeth, and she tells me "my expectations of straight teeth are too high". So ridiculous. The only saving grace in that entire place is Rebecca (receptionist) who is an absolute delight. You're too good for that place, Rebecca.

    My son has been going to this practice in Stevensville, MD for several years after his original…read moreOrthodonist unexpectedly passed away. His teeth are a special case and he has had braces for almost 4 years now. Mary Trahar very kindly said she would finish the treatment no matter how long it took, even though my insurance only paid up to a certain point. They have gone above and beyond all expectations. They have a very clean and professional office and the staff are friendly and quite helpful. Would definitely recommend !!
