This office is amazing! The staff is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and sweet. Tiana is wonderful at making you feel welcome and is so lovely at each appointment. She's the best! Dr. Cohanim is kind, thorough, and very helpful at explaining his process. I had braces as a teenager but found my teeth were shifting in adulthood. I explored a few providers but Dr. Cohanim's office was by far the best in terms of experience and availability. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this office! read more

Dr. Cohanim and his lovely staff are among my favorite medical/dental professionals of all time. I've been seeing them over the past couple of years for adult invisalign (now just for semiannual check-ups) and couldn't be more tickled with the results, not to mention the level of care I have consistently received. You can tell they've worked hard to and have mastered the art of creating a pleasant, comfortable atmosphere, build trust and familiarity with their patiencts (no question is dumb), and exude excellent bedside manner. Billing and scheduling has been as straightforward and painless as can be, and I can honestly say that I enjoy my appointments. It feels like visiting family, at this point. Thank you, all for your professionalism and expertise! read more

Dr. Bobby Cohanim is a friendly, kind doctor and easy to talk to and ask medical questions. I was welcomed at my first session warmly by him and staff. Also, he is knowledgeable and gave me confident of the work they are going to do on my teeth. Thank You! Elham Lawson (Ellie) read more

Thanks, Dr. Cohanim and staff for all your hard work. Everyone here is super friendly and professional. I appreciate all the explanations as I go through treatment. read more

I recently got my adult braces off and couldn't be happier with the whole experience, from start to finish. Had I known it could go as smoothly as it did I probably wouldn't have put it off so long! The number one reason I enjoyed the experience is because of everyone at Cohanim Smileworks. Patricia is the kindest person and I love seeing her first thing when I walk in, and last person as I walk out. She does an incredible job of getting me in when needed at a time that works with my schedule. Jessica is so knowledgeable and helpful with everything she does during my visit. She didn't even laugh when I told her my irrational fears when getting my braces removed. My only complaint is she isn't there at all of my appointments ;) Dr. Cohanim is skilled and is really good at listening to any concerns I have. He made things easy and painless and I wish I knew more people that needed braces so I could send them his way. read more

Everyone at Cohanim Smileworks has been patient, respectful, and helpful with my dental care. Dr. Cohanim has an easy going, yet professional, attitude, thoroughly went over my options, and didn't automatically push the more expensive plan. I am confident I am in good hands at Cohanim Smileworks. read more

Dr. Cohanim, Patricia, and Jessica made the entire "adult-with-braces" experience not only bearable, but almost enjoyable. They are all patient, kind, informative, well educated professionals who gave me many options, flexibility, and guidance through the whole process. They're prompt in returning my calls/emails, they met me after hours a couple times for "braces emergencies", they worked with my school and work schedule, they were always on time and never made me wait to see them, they're extremely organized, have excellent communication skills, and are just great people in general. I truly looked forward to each visit, and appreciated Dr. Cohanim's patience as I asked many questions over the years. I had a very complicated situation, and was so impressed with the planning and coordination between these guys and the Dr. Wasson's oral surgery. Not only that but I honestly feel that these guys went above and beyond to make this process as painless as possible. I've come to truly value their presence in my life, and would recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs any orthodontia work. Book these guys- you won't be sorry. read more

So I called so I can set an appointment because I was told I need to get some teeth removed and I want to get braces so I know I need more than a few removed and right away Patricia was really rude I couldn't ask her a question because she had a attitude with every response so I didn't set an appointment read more

I've had a vastly different experience with Dr. Cohanim than the other reviewer. I had previously visited another orthodontist but didn't feel like they listened to my concerns. At Smileworks, however, Dr Cohanim and his staff were very patient with me, listening carefully to my questions and talking through all my options. This has continually been the case throughout the past 9 months that I've been a patient (I'm doing invisalign braces treatment). What's more, they've been super-flexible with me -- I'm a business traveler, out of town almost all the time, and Dr Cohanim has gone out of his way to work with my schedule. Certainly, it's no fun to wear braces as an adult, but I'm thankful that I'm going through this experience under the thoughtful and considerate care of Dr Cohanim. read more

My family & I have been cared for by Dr. Cohanim & his wonderful staff since 2001. Initially my ex-husband & I began our treatment. After such a pleasant experience we referred my younger sister who at the time was seeking an orthodontist. Then once our children were old enough we took them in for their consults. Having started their treatment plan at an early age we saved hundreds of dollars. I highly recommend Cohanim Smileworks. Dr. Cohanim has done a excellent job. My family & I appreciate his care & genuine kindness over these past 15 years. We like him so much that even after moving to Federal Way we don't mind driving into Seattle for treatment. Although at times, I kind of wish he still had his Federal Way office :) read more

I have had par-exelence experience with Dr. Cohanim, so satisfactory so that I would fly each month from New York to Seattle just to see see him and then would return back to New York very same day. Trust me, spending 6 hours flying back and forth between New York and Seattle is not fun, but the time and money I have spent was worth every penny. Dr. Cohanim set a clear treatment goal and I have obtained more than satisfactory result. I would strongly recommend him as your orthodontist. Based on my specific treatment plan, I have carried invislighn and then switched to braces. The staff is super friendly, welcoming and approachable. They will work around your schedule. You can share your concerns and ask your questions to Dr. Cohanim. I did and he always listened to what I thought and helped me to make most suitable decisions. Again, great doctor, nice staff and overall-very satisfactory result!!! Go for him, you will not regret :) read more

Just finished my first appointment with Dr. Cohanim. Through my interactions with him and his staff (we have a professional relationship) I knew he was very knowledgeable, the staff was friendly and that the treatment would be top notch. What I was surprised by was the price!!! For a downtown Seattle provider I am in shock of the affordability. Good on Dr. Cohanim for providing his services at an affordable rate for all. read more

Dr. Cohanim and his staff do great work, I highly recommend their services. They gave my son an amazing smile and he had horrible teeth as a child. Now they look beautiful as an adult. They are now also treating me with invisalign and my smile is also greatly improving. Parking is easy, the facilities are clean and sterile, the staff is friendly and professional. read more

First off, Patricia and Jessica are an absolute pleasure. They are personable and every time I come in for an appointment, it 's like I'm visiting with friends. I came to Dr. Cohanim for Invisalign, and I am almost done. I really feel like his main priority is making sure my teeth are perfect. He has gone above and beyond (ordering extra trays, scheduling extra check ups, ect.) and really made sure the results would be fabulous. The best part is, I was quoted a price for my perfect smile, and even with the extra trays, extra xrays, and extra check ups I was not charged an extra dime. read more

I would give (and have given) anyone a referral to Dr. Cohanim. I was hooked from the first appointment when I walked in the door and found one of my favorite people sitting behind the desk (Patricia, formerly of Guy Roberts, DDS). Then Shanda and Jessica reaffirmed my feelings by being so friendly and professional. Finally, Dr. Cohanim clearly knows his stuff. He is very direct and not longwinded. Ok, his timeline guess for my care was off by a bit- but that is more a problem of my mouth than his estimate- lol. One HUGE star alone is for the fact that I think the longest I have ever had to wait for my appointment time was 5 minutes.This is very important for those with busy lives. One word if you are considering braces- GO! Plus the view out the windows while you're in the chair are gorgeous. read more

If you are looking for an orthodontist whose medical knowledge is encyclopedic, treats the whole person, and takes the time to be caring even while maintaining a very efficient office, then look no further than Dr. Robert Cohanim. Several years ago, I began Invisilign treatments with a dentist. In hindsight, I should have consulted with an orthodontist, but mid-way through a treatment program that was not working, a friend referred me to Dr. Robert Cohanim who turned out to be a pioneer of the Invisalign technology in the Seattle area. Notably, he is also an associate professor at the Orthodontic Department at the University of Washington Dental School. Dr. Cohanim is a busy specialist with a high case load, but you'd never know it from his bedside manner. He is generous with his time. His manner is quiet and confident and he pays great attention to detail. He welcomes questions and provides thorough and understandable answers. He offers best advice and treatment during every visit--for every issue. The Cohanim "Smileworks" office is smoothly run. The support staff have been employed with Dr. Cohanim for many years and work smoothly and effectively together as a team. The office manager, Patricia, is efficient and sets the tone for a welcome and inviting experience in the office. read more

I have been experiencing serious bone loss because of my crossbite and underbite for awhile and finally am in a position to do something about it. I was referred to Dr. Cohanim by my awesome perio. I didn't like his attitude, at all. He barely looked at my mouth before telling me I needed surgery to break my jaw. I knew this was always a possibility, but this is a serious procedure and something I want to avoid at all costs. He dismissed any of my concerns (going under, healing, complications, possible nerve damage) and just kept repeating that I needed the surgery. He also mentioned that the doc who'd be doing the surgery was a "friend and colleague". None of this sat right with me and I went for a second opinion. Guess what? I went for a second opinion and I *don't* need surgery. Avoid this guy. read more

Just an update, I completed the orthognathic surgery part 3 months ago and it all work out great. It actually healed up a lot faster than I expected and I've experienced no complications whatsoever. The first week or so after surgery was a bit rough, but it's surgery, so I was somewhat expecting it. It's all downhill from here with only a few more months of invisalign. Overall I have had nothing but a positive experience. read more

I have always been treated well here. Good scheduling system and the treatment provided goes above and beyond my expectations.

My daughter has been a patient of Dr. Cohanim for the past three years. Dr. Cohanim has a quiet, relaxed demeanor that my daughter appreciates. The staff is friendly and the office is modern and has lovely views of the city. The patient base seems to be primarily children and teens. In talking to other parents in the waiting room, this is very much the Bertschi, Bush, SCDS, and UCDS set which is somewhat amusing. The quality of care is excellent, and as a professor at the UW, I believe Dr. Cohanim is up on the latest techniques. read more

I keep recommending the Smileworks team to everyone I know for one reason...they are simply the best. Everything from the building, their location, their work and mostly just the people themselves, they are all the best of their class. read more

Two of my young children are a year into what will likely be years of treatment with Dr. Cohanim. I feel like they are in excellent hands. The staff is extremely professional. The office is comfortable, clean and open. Dr. Cohanim answered all of my questions and never seemed rushed. I appreciate that he's a professor at the UW which means to me that he has the most current information about advances in his field. I've felt as though when there were options about treatment that the pros and cons were well explained so that I could make an informed decision for my kids. In contrast to a negative review below, in one case, Dr. Cohanim referred us to a (terrific) pediatric dentist for an extraction so that we could avoid general anesthesia with an oral surgeon. read more

Bobby and his team of Orthodontic experts are our first choice when sending patients to an orthodontist in the First Hill area. He is extremely hands on and spends a great deal of personal time with each patient. Would trust anyone to him including many of our staff members who have been patients of Bobby's. read more

We have been seeing Dr. Cohanim for many years and series of orthodontics. We are pleased with the service and care that we have all received. The staff is friendly and helpful. read more

My son has been a patient of Dr. Cohanim's for several months. While we are still in the beginning stages of our relationship, I can share that we are extremely pleased! Dr. Cohanim and his wonderful staff have helped my son, who was extremely reticent about the prospect of braces, feel comfortable and confident about the entire process. Dr. Cohanim is very receptive to all of my son's questions and concerns and his staff is extremely friendly, welcoming and patient. I am very happy with our choice to work with Dr. Cohanim's team. read more

Dr. Cohanim and his team are simply the best. I had more than three years of experiences with them as I had very severe receiding gum and other problems. Their service was most impressive. The staff were warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Dr. Cohanim's work. read more

I have been working with Dr. Cohanim and his team for several years now. I have a complex set of concerns that stretch well beyond basic orthodontia and have intersected with multiple oral health providers over the past few years. His service has shone above all others. He really listens to my concerns, always respects my chronic pain, and has devoted time and attention to helping me seek solutions well beyond simply providing my orthodontia. I cannot recommend him highly enough. read more

good service, very flexible, relaxed , and comfortable, invisaline has been a breeze, i was recommended to this clinic and am very happy with this experience. a far cry from the work done to my daughters teeth in bellevue many years ago now. which became an 8 year ordeal with damaged cracked teeth as result.. i like the no nonsense approach, and the straight forward advise. read more
