Everyone at this office goes above and beyond! They truly care how each child feels and wants the best care for them. “This is a great office, I like that the doctors dog comes sometimes. The people that work here are nice” per my daughter. We’ve been extremely pleased with our experience here. All the staff is very welcoming, and informative. All the options are clearly explained. Overall very pleased.

Dr. Shems and her team have been absolutely incredible! I am almost done with my treatment and I'm loving my results! In addition to that they have been more than accommodating when I've needed to bring my kids to my appointments. Everyone in the office is kind and professional. I would recommend them without hesitation!

Response from the owner:Ashely, thank you so much for your kind review. We love it when you bring your sweet babies🥰

I have been seeing Dr. Shems and her team for just over a year for Invisalign treatment. I recently finished my treatment and am thrilled with the results. I am 70 years old, never had braces and always wanted straight teeth. That has been accomplished and I am thrilled with the outcome. Dr. Shems put together a treatment plan and her staff went over budget and timeline. I will say I finished treatment just when she thought I would . I had such confidence in her and the entire staff. They are all so kind and personable. Dr Shems is extremely skilled at her specialty. She has all the updated technology to help her in people’s treatment. She answers questions and concerns with no judgment. She has a happy staff which to me says a lot about her as a person. This week I had an assistant who went to school with Dr. Shems, lives a fair distance from Falmouth, but after leaving a practice she had worked in for 30 years now drives to work for her schoolmate and friend, Dr. Shems. That says a lot . No matter what age you are I highly recommend Dr. Shems .

Response from the owner:Becky, we are also thrilled with your results and are so happy for you! Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We really appreciate that you notice how much we love working with Dr. Shems😊

I recently visited Dr. Shems after losing my retainer and needing a replacement. From the moment I walked into the adorable office, Dr. Shems and the entire team were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. They took the time to explain my options, answered all of my questions, and made the process easy and stress-free! From my experience it is clear that Dr. Shems genuinely cares about her patients and goes above and beyond to provide excellent care. I left feeling confident that I was in good hands and made the right decision coming here. I highly recommend Dr. Shems to anyone looking for an orthodontist who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated to patient comfort.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind review Allie! We love what we do and we love patients like you🥰

So glad to have found Dr Shems & her team! They are all wonderful & provide exceptional care! Having our children see Dr Shems has made such a difference in their teeth, jaw alignment & airway. We had consults with two other local practices that just did not feel quite right. The moment we met Dr Shems and her staff, we knew it was a perfect fit. Dr Shems cares so much about her patients & their families. Cannot recommend this practice enough!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience! We truly appreciate your kind review, it means a lot to our team.

We would recommend Dr. Shem to anyone seeking dental work! Our daughter has been seeing her for several years now and the change in her smile (and confidence) is amazing. Dr. Shem and her entire team work hard to make sure our daughter has a great experience with every visit, and they take the time to educate us about the treatment plan.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this kind review!

My son went here for his orthodontic work and we had a great experience! He especially loved earning Ortho bucks and looked forward to what he could "buy". Thank you for making the experience so much better for him than when I had orthodontic work decades ago somewhere else!

I can't say enough about Dr.Shems and the staff. They don't just straighten teeth, they make you feel like family. Every visit they remembered my name, asked about my life, and genuinely cared how I was doing. The office is so welcoming that my anxiety about dental work disappeared. My smile looks amazing, but the way they treated me mattered even more. 10/10 recommend. Dr.Shems and the team is kind, patient, and explains everything so you never feel lost. The team celebrates every little win with you. I walked in for braces and walked out with a perfect smile and people I'Il actually miss seeing. Choosing Dr.Shems for such a big step in my life was the best decision I’ve ever made.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a kind, thoughtful review. This means so much to us Elizabeth! We love seeing your family walk through our doors and we are so happy you love your smile😊 Thank you!!
