I am the minority, and had a personal very negative experience with Elms' staff that left me feeling unable to trust his office with my care, let alone my children's.
We went with Brazos Valley Orthodontics, Dr Gary Gardener, at the encouragement of our family dentist, and couldn't be more pleased! He's off of Rock Prairie, and his staff is amazing! The consult visit and first set of xrays are complimentary. My 7th grader's teeth are pretty jacked, and we have at least 2+ years in braces ahead of us. Our treatment plan was $5300. They also offered 0 interest financing through their office if we needed it, and we received a 10% discount for paying outright.
Dr Gardener does office days in CS, Bryan and Caldwell. He doesn't spend big bucks on a hummer, commercials and full page ads, but is a top notch guy and I refer all of my friends and patients his way!
