They always are so friendly and do the best job possible. The office is super clean and the environment is great there. I highly recommend their office!

The actual services they provide appear to be of good quality and effective so far, as we are only…read morea few months into my daughter's braces. The office itself is bright and clean. The staff attitudes/friendliness vary wildly from overly giddy to aloof to downright confrontational. After a few visits, we were sent an invitation to do an online survey, which I filled out. I graded them poorly in one area because I think it is odd/ridiculous that a service provider would only schedule followup appointments between 9 and noon, which is a time that 95% of their clients (kids) are unavailable (in school). I'm aware of many orthos in other areas that have early morning/evening/weekend appts, for these visits, which is much more customer friendly. A few days after the survey, we started getting calls from the office. Each time, we were not available to take the call. This led to a phone-tag thing that over a few weeks consisted of 10 calls. Since they don't have voicemail at the office, I asked someone to take a message. They refused. So I asked for an email address. They refused. So then I posted a note on their Facebook page, asking them to kindly stop calling. The calls ended. A few weeks later, my wife took the kid in for an adjustment. My wife was asked to come back to the treatment area, which was unusual. Once in the room with our daughter, one of their staffers verbally attacked my wife. "What's the deal with you posting on Facebook?!? " Etc. My wife was shocked and totally unaware of anything, since I had handled the survey and subsequent phone calls. Especially concerning was the fact that our daughter was in the room and completely embarrassed. After composing herself, my wife stopped the staffer's rant, returned to the front desk and asked to see the manager. Once sitting down with the practice manager, my wife explained the situation. The manager apologized profusely and said the staffer was inappropriate and would be reprimanded. The problem here is that with braces, you can't really just change providers mid-stream. So we are forced to maintain a relationship with this office, even though we all cringe at the thought of visiting this facility. My wife now refuses to step foot in the place. This week, we had a return visit for another adjustment. No problems this time.

Brian Carlin is one of the better dentists who accepts the MSU Graduate Student Aetna Dental plan…read morein the Lansing/Okemos area. Everyone there was friendly and welcoming when I visited; it was always a pleasure to visit this dentist office. Both the hygienists and Brian Carlin were incredibly knowledgeable, gentle with my often-sensitive teeth, and took the time to explain everything in detail to me if we were considering any additional treatments. I recommend this dentist wholeheartedly, and only stopped going because I moved to a different state.

I initially liked Dr. Carlin until he ripped me off for $1600!…read more I paid $1600 deposit for Invisalign. After 2 week trial I was experiencing significant discomfort and needed to discontinue treatment. Dr. Carlin insulted me by saying "hundreds of thousands" have used Invisalign and you seem to be the only one who has pain.". Perhaps he should read a few peer reviewed studies. I wanted to leave then but Dr. Carlin and his assistant blocked me in until I forced my way around them. Dr. Carlin said they would only charge me a lab fee, but he kept my $1600! And he kept my Invisaligns, AND he billed my insurance.

It's mostly his calm but incredibly friendly nature, which does not mean to say he also isn't incredibly skilled! He is quick but efficient, and considering I've had multiple procedures now, I have NEVER felt his novocaine(?) injections! I don't know how he does that! The staff is also extremely friendly and efficient!! They have often helped me get appointments when I've REALLY needed them, including emergency appointments with the orthodontist.

The main reason I wanted to post was to tell Dr. Baker's assistant Marti how much I appreciate her work. She went above and beyond to make sure that each cap fit perfectly. She has a kind, professional attitude which helps a lot when I'm under stress. Also, where else can you get your hands waxed and your arms massaged while in the chair? and all for the price of admission. Vivian is lovely. I enjoyed my experience with Connie as well.

Ok, this is the thing: Dr. Novak is wonderful. My daughter had a problem over the weekend once and…read moreI called the emergency line and Dr. Novak herself talked to me, was not rushed, was very helpful and reassuring, and even offered to come in on the weekend if what she was telling me to try didn't work. This was on a Saturday afternoon. Also, many of the staff are wonderful. One of the women who is always at the front desk is so sweet and helpful. The dental techs are also great. No problems. It is just this one lady. I think she is the office manager, but I am not sure and I don't know her name. She is the one who does the consultations. She is rude and difficult to deal with. I almost walked out of there and just went somewhere else during our initial visit and consultation. However, when I met Dr. Novak I decided to stay and try to make it work...the office is very close to our home and I wanted to go there for convenience. If you can deal with the super rude lady, then things should be good. The actual ortho work has been great.

I was able to observe how they treated not only my daughter but every child who came in--always with professionalism and kindness. My daughter had her braces removed last year, and her teeth look amazing! After seeing her results, I decided to explore braces for myself. Initially, I thought I might not qualify at my age, but Dr. Novak took the time to explain that it's never too late. She walked me through all the options and the expected timeline. Thanks to her guidance, I started the process and now have braces myself. A big thank you to Dr. Novak and the entire team for their outstanding care and support!

When visiting the office, I felt like the front desk staff knew me by name and made my time there worthwhile. In addition, Dr. G would take the time to see me at every visit and talk me through the progress at every step. It's worth it to do your research when investing in something like orthodontics, but when you do, you'll realize that Grubaugh Ortho is worth all the hype! They are patient, personable, and do phenomenal work! Not to mention that they do incredible things for our greater-Lansing community! Thanks Dr. G and staff!

I had a fine time here and everything was normal. Except for when I was scheduling my appointment…read moreto get my braces off the front desk worker couldn't get the computer to work so she just gave me my appointment time on a little card. It was at 1:30 or so I think. On the day of my appointment I got a call saying that I missed it at like 9:30 am. My mom called back and told them of their mistake but they said that it couldn't be true because they wouldn't schedule a braces removal at such a late time. They rescheduled it and we even brought my appointment card to show that it was supposed to be at 1:30 but the front desk worker didn't really acknowledge it (she just took the card and put it somewhere) and everyone acted like I was the one who made a mistake and was late. It's just frustrating that they wouldn't acknowledge their own mistake.
