This is our fourth child in braces and our first experience with Waddoups. We could not be happier! The Orthodontist has taken time at every step to explain what he's doing and answered every question we have asked with the most outstanding bedside manner and ease. 10 out of 10

We were referred to Dr. Waddoups from our dentist and really enjoyed the experience. Very friendly staff and clean office. We came in for an initial consultation for my 10 year old daughter. The consultation was very thorough and the Dr. Waddoups and Francis explained everything very clearly. They answered all our questions and walked us through the plan. My daughter ended up needing braces and they were able to put them on same day as consultation. My daughter is looking forward to the results.
