I received braces from Dr. Ekren about 4 years ago and have been visiting him and his co-workers ever since for check-ups and actually look forward to it each time! Everyone there is very genuine and they legitimately care about your well-being. As soon as you enter the office a calming sensation envelops you as opposed to most stress filled offices. As for the actual treatment the doc is very quick and attentive to your needs/concerns, and except for your own tension when hes working it's virtually stress free and pain free! I highly suggest this office for the very friendly attitudes, genuine people, and skilled work performed. Bart Ekren is the bomb diggity!
