Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Carr was so great with the kids! We are really happy with his decisions and orthodontic work. And everyone in the office is so nice! Thanks Everyone!

Our family had such a great experience at Dr. Carr's office. Dr Carr is amazing at what he does and how he uses technology. Both of our daughters have great smiles and receive compliments all the time. It has really boosted their confidence. I also want to mention Pam and Sabrina at the front desk! They are great to work with, Pam in particular was great helping us with our insurance. Thank you Dr. Carr and also to all of your staff!!

My daughter has been going to Carr for 3 years and today when calling to explain my new insurance (After my ex husband had already been in the office with my daughter for her check up) I was treated with impatience, I was talked over by Pamela and then hung up on when I asked to speak to someone else. After years of going there I can't believe I was treated so terribly! To top it off my ex husband said that Dr Carr had been ina foul mood and was snippy with our 10 year old during her check up.

My Daughter just recently got her braces on and I will say that from the first time we walked into Dr. Carr's office I knew we were at the right place. Dr. Carr and the staff here were very welcoming and always made sure my concerns were of the utmost importance to them. My daughter was so at ease once she meet everyone and so was I. I love that they use the latest technology! Makes me feel like she is getting the best care!

Dr. Carr provided excellent care to our daughter Melissa. The position of her teeth needed to be corrected or else she faced jaw surgery. With the expertise of Dr. Carr's Sure Smile method and his exceptional care, he was able to correct the position of her teeth, no surgery needed!! We are extremely grateful to Dr. Carr and his awesome staff!

Dr. Carr and his staff are fantastic. Both of my children got their braces and orthodontic work done with Dr. Carr and their teeth turned out perfect. I recently had work done on my teeth and the procedure was painless and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Carr for your orthodontic needs.
