"I had a very good experience having my braces by Dr.Rafati, she was patient with me as well as her nice staff. If you are in need of a super nice office that delivers great results than this is the place for you!"
"I went to Doctor Rafati's Orthondontics for my braces, and currently I'm wearing retainers. I had an open bite, where my top row of teeth and bottom row of teeth did not close together; there was a big gap. After getting braces, the results were shockingly pleasant. Now, my front teeth have come out and they are covering my bottom teeth and the gap is nonexistent. The staff are extremely kind and welcoming, the facility and tools are clean and modern, it is overall such a great place. I highly highly recommend Rafati's Orthodontics for braces."
