Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Sher will place a pen from the tip of the nose to the chin of a child, show to the parent, the lips touch the pen and then suggest to remove 4 teeth apparently unaware that the nose and other facial features grow. But by removing 4 teeth he gets at least 2 years more of messing around with attempting to align the teeth and ridiculous amounts of money for the damage he caused.

Dr. Scher and his staff are wonderful with difficult patients. They were ready as soon as we arrived. My child has sensory issues and has a really hard time submitting to dental treatment. I never thought they would be able to put braces on him, but I was wrong. Dr. Scher and his assistants were patient and reassuring. My son received their undivided attention and the braces were put on quickly. I am so grateful for their expertise, which made his experience gentle and pain free.

Dr. Scher is an excellent orthodontist. Both my sons have beautiful smiles and excellent bites because of Dr. Scher's superior skills. My older son had a particularly difficult set of teeth to treat. Dr. Scher approached this task with pleasant assuredness and again, superior skills. He was always kind and congenial to my sons and me. He is a great, conscientious orthodontist and a lovely person! His staff is terrific too!
