Pachter Orthodontics

I want to clear one thing before I get started with this review, I DO NOT WANT TO ANTAGONIZE PEOPLE AT PACHTER ORTHODONTICS, I just want people to know the real truth about this place because there is just a ton of false information about it online. Pachter has hundreds of fake 5-star reviews and they can easily fool anyone into thinking that it is a great orthodontics clinic. My experience with this place has been horrendous. I went to Pachter Orthodontics for the teeth alignment of me and my sister. The staff was kind and the doctor seemed like a good person as well. When we first entered the building, we were welcomed by the reception staff, we had an appointment at 3:00 and we arrived at 2:25 to make sure that we don’t miss it. However,r the doctor didn’t arrive until 3:40, he was trying to get the check-up done as fast as humanly possible, the anxiety and irritation were visible on his facial expressions. He quickly did a check-up and told me and my sister to come back next week for getting our braces. I did doubt his check-up because he really just skimmed it and didn’t really focus on anything. But I didn’t doubt him much because I head good things about Pachter on the internet. I and my sister returned to the clinic the next week, we got our braces and were charged $XXXX each. It was a little expensive but it wasn’t the worst part. After 2 weeks my gums started bleeding, I called the doctor and he told me that it was normal and I shouldn’t worry about it too much, I took his advice and ignored the bleeding. However, by the end of the week, my gums started to hurt like crazy, the pain was so unbearable that I had tears in my eyes. I immediately went to the clinic after getting an urgent appointment and there, the doctor casually told me that my braces were a “little” too tight for my gums. He giggled a little and tried to cover up his mistakes by saying things like, ”This happens all the time”, “don’t worry about it”, “I’ll make sure that you get a discount”, etc. But I am not a fool! I confronted him and asked him HOW THE HELL DID HE MESS UP A SIMPLE DENTAL CHECKUP. He implied that it wasn’t his fault and tried to evade the question. After a couple of minutes of trying to talk to him, I just rushed out of the clinic and went to another one the same evening. I got a new set of braces from that place and told my sister to get new ones as well. Don’t go to Pachter Orthodontics if you want proper Orthodontic treatment. Avoid them, and you will be good to go. My sister later told me that she was having problems with their braces too.
