Had a great experience. Friendly welcoming team. Comfortable space. Great result!
As someone who just started orthodontic treatment 2 months ago for the second time in less than 6 years, I felt poor of bad retainer wear, and when I came to Dr. Doppel's, I felt immediately relieved, the pressure was off me. From my first meeting back in January, she was very thorough with her examination saying that there was lower forward tongue issues going on as well as moderate crowding on both arches. Not a lot of orthodontists are as thorough as Dr. Doppel when they analyze that there is a tongue issue going on. She is, better than my previous orthodontist, and PSA: If you want a thorough orthodontist who is fantastic at what they do, Dr. Doppel is the one to go to. I was able to get scans at my first appointment, and my first set of Angel Aligners the second appointment. That's how efficient they are.
I walked in with little confidence that my top teeth could be straightened, and walked out 8 months later with a great smile. Dr. Dopple and staff are incredible - they treat you professionally but at the same time, just like you are part of the family. I had an amazing experience and will miss them - I don't say that a lot about anything dental! LOL
The staff at Pacific Orthodontics are the perfect balance of professional and warm. I felt immediately welcomed upon entering the front office. I appreciated being walked through each step of the treatment plan with visual aids and videos. I am excited to continue my braces journey with this office!
I had a great experience with Dr. Doppel and the entire team. While the price is a bit higher compared to other orthodontic offices, the quality of care and attention to detail absolutely make it worth it. Dr. Doppel is very candid, honest, and always provides a warm welcome. She genuinely cares about the outcome and takes the time to explain everything clearly. What stood out to me the most is that she never cuts corners—on what was supposed to be my final retainer visit, she recommended additional refinement trays purely for aesthetic perfection. That level of commitment really shows how much she values her patients’ results. The front desk staff is also consistently kind and welcoming, which makes every visit a pleasant experience. Although I’m still waiting on my final set of retainers, I’m already confident the end result will be amazing. There are plenty of at-home Invisalign-style options out there, but the professional touch and expertise you get here truly make a difference. I’ll definitely be coming back for check-ups even after completing my Invisalign treatment. Highly recommend!
I started wearing Angel Aliners in July and got them off today, and I’m so happy with my results. The whole process was super easy, and everything went smoothly because the office made it simple to follow and stay on track. My teeth are straight again, and my bite feels so much better. Dr. Dopple and the entire office staff have always been kind, supportive, and encouraging. They really have the process down, and it made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free. I’m very grateful for their care and would definitely recommend them to anyone considering orthodontic treatment.
