This might be the worst medical experience I've ever encountered. This company (and I say company…read morebecause they are all about money, not patient care) has left my daughter with broken brackets and no wires for more than 7 weeks and we still have another 7 weeks until the next appointment. We are a year into treatment and moving backwards at this point. They clearly have taken on too many patients and have prioritized profits over patient care. We paid for these braces up front, in full, and now they don't care a bit about her teeth. I have never felt so disrespected by a 'medical provider' in my life. They talk about being the 'business of bringing smiles,' but my poor daughter doesn't even want to expose her teeth because she is embarrassed by how she looks. Stay away!

Katie Klein has been beyond amazing for my 2 daughters and myself! She has been seeing my girls…read moresince they were very young. My daughters needed a lot of work: pallet expanders, teeth extractions, gums lasered, multiple rounds of braces etc. Katie treats every patient like they are family. Her bedside manner is impeccable, and she personally calls patients to check in after most appointments, I just started Invisalign myself as an adult. The process has been so smooth and she is always there to respond quickly to any and all questions. In a world where most medicine is not personalized anymore and we are just a number as a patient, Katie makes you feel special and heard! I couldn't recommend her more!

These days I have very little time to dress and shower forget about writing a review but when it…read morecomes to Katie Klein Orthodontics, I had to speak up. I am so sad that my two older sons did not have the opportunity to be patients with this practice. But I am SO grateful that my youngest son, who not only has sensory issues but who struggles tremendously with challenging, new experiences let alone ones that are not always very comfortable or pleasant, has had Katie and her staff for his braces journey. This practice is a more than a giant head and shoulders above the other two experiences I have had with orthodontists. The others were kind, professional and got the job done. ?!?! So, why is Katie so much better? It is hard to put into words how caring, honest, skilled and straightforward this practitioner is without seeming to be exaggerating. But I kid you not... she is the genuine article. Let's start with her ability to make it all look easy. The place is relaxed, clean and as she is chatting away like a good friend you are watching her expertly navigate your child's mouth and any trace of anxiety or discomfort. She makes incredibly difficult tasks look effortless and she smiles through it all. And of course, we need to talk about money. It is transparent from the get go. Financial plans and options are made available and you truly understand not only the cost but the cost benefit... every step of the way. Nothing is hidden, disguised or short-changed. And the highest quality of care is just her standard. What you are hoping for, as well as the reality of achieving this end result with realistic timing of outcomes, are explained clearly and expertly. Even more importantly, your child will be heard, attended to, motivated, supported and ultimately successful at Katie Klein. It is all the somewhat invisible intangibles.... A beyond accommodating front desk staff, frequent appointment reminders and yet no guilt or shame inducing practices when appointments are accidentally forgotten or simply missed due to a myriad of circumstances. It is all the big tangibles. You have an emergency? Or need a last minute appointment? You are not told they accommodated you. You are simply accommodated. Katie Klein and her practice are different, because she is that lightning in a bottle kind of Doctor. Real, compassionate, excellent, hardworking, non-judgmental and true to her word and ethics. You want her in your life. Your teeth and/or your child's teeth will thank you. Sure, you may leave many orthodontists with an externally beautiful smile. But it's the smile on your face that comes from working with a true heart that cares for you and your loved ones from the outside and the inside, that stays with you from here.

The Office Manager Cheryl offended me and was so rude that I had to ask 7 times to speak with the…read moreDoctor to complain about her behavior. I was told that I could not speak with the Doctor or even receive a call from her at a later time. I couldn't send a complaint in the mail since the Office "Manager" opens the mail. Her behavior was so unprofessional I want to switch offices, but my child is in the middle of treatment and nobody else will take transfer patients mid-treatment. The fact that I don't have any access to speak with the Doctor who treats my young child is very disturbing and unusual. As a professional myself, I am horrified by Cheryl's rude behavior and unfortunately Yelp was my only way to let the Doctor (and unfortunately others) know.

Ok, let me start with my complicated Orthodontics history…read more This is my 3rd time getting braces (ya, no kidding). My first braces experience in elementary school was with Orthodontics students due to budget concern -- of course that didn't go well and they started me on a second round treatment right afterward. The supervising dentist at the time even told me that I didn't need retainers. So after getting into my 30s, my teeth alignment is out of place again. Now I have open bite. So I decided to do braces again. I went to 2 other orthodontists for consultation before choosing Arlington Orthodontics. One was widely referred by colleagues but her practice was too far, and her quote wasn't as competitive. Another was way too pushy in selling their service and even told me they can expedite the process from 20 months to 14 months. If you know something about adult teeth, you never want to rush your Orthodontics treatment. It can cause the root of the teeth to shrink, which can result in tooth loss. Dr. Lind green was the only orthodontist who spent the resources to take dental X-ray and 3D scan of my teeth among all these consultation, and free of charge. He spent a good amount of time to explain how prior ortho treatment shortened my tooth root, and how he'd adjust treatment to me. He was honest up front that I may not be able to complete treatment should they find my root shortened to a dangerous length. (He said he'd X-ray my teeth to monitor treatment). I chose an honest orthodontist, knowing that I'd be in good hands. No other ortho has taken the time and patience to explain to me. After all, I am he one paying for the service! Oh, the reclining chair, AC, and music makes a good short nap during my braces appointments. Haha.

Upgrade more issues…read more Dentist. Lindgren also deliberately made my top teeth wider than my bottom teeth, resulting in misalignment. Now, all four top teeth have root canal issues, and the cost to fix this is over $20,000. On top of that, he used an intense light that left dark spots on my lips after drying the glue. It seems he did all this intentionally, with these problems only becoming apparent years later. I recorded all my visits and can provide proof if necessary. Dentist. Lindgren falsely claimed I cursed his staff, which is completely untrue. If I had, I would ask him to specify exactly what was said and to whom. I urge him to do the right thing. This behavior is unprofessional and immature. Dentist. John Lindgren and his wife, both highly educated and quick to defend themselves, seem skilled at deflecting criticism rather than addressing the real issues at hand. Despite their credentials, their behavior throughout my treatment was unprofessional and disrespectful.
