Our 5-Star

Experience

We believe our results speak for themselves, but don’t take our word for it, check out what other patients are saying about their 5-star experiences!

 
My daughter was very nervous about having her Hershberger appliance installed. Everyone made her feel so welcome and special. She left feeling much more comfortable about it with the... knowledge of how to keep it clean. I would recommend Dr. Caldwel to anyone getting braces.read more
Shannon M.
Staff was great and friendly. Went above my expectations. Grateful for the team there.
Kelli S.
Palmetto Family Ortho is the greatest! All of our girls have been seen by them in Spartanburg and we have loved every experience. My oldest has had a difficult case with too many baby teeth... to work with on the one hand & then missing a permanent tooth too! They’ve worked with her & us beautifully to achieve the best long term results for a gorgeous smile & proper alignment. We love their orthodontists too - they’re all so nice & knowledgeable. We recommend them all the way! ☺️read more

Robin C.
Bar none, hands down, the BEST Orthodontic Office in the Upstate. The staff is so welcoming and helpful. From appointment setting, taking or returning my phone calls, getting my child seen... expeditiously when losing or breaking her retainer. Office visits are always on time and we are not kept waiting long in the lobby. All of the Doctors and team are knowledgeable and personable. Clean and Sterile environment and very kid-friendly. Highly recommend them to anyone needing their services. You will be treated like family.read more
Kim T.
I absolutely love PFO. I've been going there since April of this year and I don't regret it. So far my experience has been amazing and Dr. Watson is very knowledgeable and experienced; he... actually fixed my gap in 3 months with invisalign, even though I have to wear it for 18 months total. Let's just say, my confidence is back because I don't have to worry about that gap showing anymore 🙂. Also, I love that I can text them about anything and I always get a reply in a timely manner. Thanks PFO for what you do and how well you do it!!!read more
Riviane N.
Dr. Watson at PFO is truly phenomenal. My son struggles with anxiety and Dr. Watson bent over backwards to make him feel comfortable and at ease. He was skilled, thorough, quick and... compassionate. And of course his sense of humor shined through. We are so pleased and so thankful for this practice.read more

PFO has been amazing to work with over the past 11 years. From consultation and through braces and retainer checks with two of my children to starting the journey with our third. PFO... doctors care about their patients and even their families. Even outside of the office, PFO supports the community by sponsoring various swim teams, buying Halloween candy from patients to send to military, and probably so much more I'm unaware of.read more
