they are just amazing. they have excellent service, took care of me, and wasnt pushy at all. braces hurt though.

Jernigan Orthodontics is nothing short of fantastic. The treatment they provide to patients, the office decor, going all out for holidays and making it fun and interactive are great for the kids. The staff clearly loves their job and are open and friendly! I also appreciate the openness and honesty of Dr Jernigan. He doesn't just try and lock you in and take your money. He speaks open and honestly and gives it straight. He could have started braces on my daughter already but two visits in two years, he has been honest and stated "if this was my daughter," and then provides his honest assessment. In both cases, he said wait and there was no charge for either visit. I appreciate the honest and fair treatment. I have sang his praises and told many about him and his practice! This is how you earn a loyal and faithful customer. I will remain a loyal customer! Awesome work Dr Jernigan and team!!! read more

I moved to Lugoff recently and needed to find a new orthodontist for my 10 year old who is between treatment phases and needed help with her current retainer. Jernigan Ortho was very highly recommend by several mothers in the area. Due to Covid, their arrival procedures were different than a regular visit. I was told that ordinarily I'd have to wait in the car, and send my daughter in with a treatment specialist who would come greet me at my car after I alerted them via text that we'd arrived. However, since this was our first visit to the office, it turned out that they needed me to come inside with my daughter anyway. I was SO impressed from the moment we walked in, to the moment we left. The treatment specialist (I'm sorry to say I've forgotten her name!) walked ahead of us and made sure to open every door for us, and hold it open to minimize any contact with door handles and/or common surface areas. She took our temperature in the foyer and there were hand sanitizer stations every several feet. The entire office was decorated floor to ceiling in a Beauty and the Beast theme. It's always exciting to see when a practitioner goes the extra mile to entertain their young patients. During our initial visit everyone was very informative, very helpful, and answered every question I had before I even had a chance to ask! They were able to immediately help and fix the problem with her current retainer in a matter of minutes, and at no charge! I was fully prepared to have a new retainer made but it wasn't necessary. The staff as well as Dr. Jernigan made it a point to engage with my 10 year old and make her feel welcome, comfortable, and excited. I was told my daughter wouldn't need to be seen for about a year before we begin phase 2 of treatment but I am looking forward to our time together. Thank you for a fantastic first visit! read more

This a great orthodontist I got braces a few years ago and it was great. My mouth is now perfectly fixed and the staff was amazing.

I went in for a consultation for my daughter about her braces. I was blown away when I walked in. They had my daughters name posted on a board at the entrance welcoming her. They have an arcade for kids in the waiting room on one side and an adult waiting area on the other. Complimentary water, coffee, and chocolates make you feel so welcomed. The staff were all phenomenal! read more

Dr. Jernigan & his crew are by far the best team I have ever met. They have a state of the art facility but they have it designed to make the kids feel like they are at Fun Zone. My youngest (8) was terrified to get braces & they made her feel completely at ease. She can not wait to go back for her next appointment. All the different games hey play & fun photos they do with the kids makes the team members friends & not just orthodontist & nurses. They work well with your insurance & help create a payment plan that suites your needs. I would highly recommend Dr. Jernigan's Orthodontics to everyone! read more

From day one walking into the office to do a consultation for my son and then getting braces two weeks later they have made us feel like family.

This is Joshua Jackson. I am writing a review on my mom's account. Dr. Jernigan is a super cool orthodontist. He has a killer waiting room. My mom loves him because he is prompt and doesn't waste our time. I like him because he makes me laugh and tells me about everything he is doing. I love Sherry too. She answered all my crazy questions and told me everything about what she was doing before she did it. They made me feel better about something I was very nervous about. read more

I love the new office! Very modern! The wait is short, and when I get in there, the staff is friendly and will even share jokes or two.

Our first visit was not intimidating at all! Ms. Myra and Dr Jernigan explained the details of treatment in depth so my 11 year old would be at ease with his orthodontic experience. The whole staff has made this a pleasant experience so far! Great incentives for kids to maintain proper procedures! read more

Dr. J is awesome. met me in his office after hours to fix my cheek which got stuck in my braces, way to go
