You have taken away precious years, the quality of my life, and my occupation. After you poorly aligned my teeth I have spent $10,ooo , at least!! more money trying to correct what you did wrong. I have hearing loss, tinnitus--who can put a price on that!!! Not to mention my hearing loss contributed to my inability to work with children, my income, due to hearing loss. I saw the magazines in your office, which should have alerted me to your moral, values and integrity. I saw you LIE on your chart. I now know why you get staff from VERY FAR away. Everyone near knows you are a LIAR! LIARS have anxiety and need anti-depressants, which you are on!!!! Please, if you want to help society, LEAVE THIS practice!!!!!

Worst doctor I have ever dealth with. Would not recommend regardless of cost. Time for Dr. Meldrum to retire.

About Front Desk: Also, not very personable. Felt like I was inconveniencing them.

After 12 years of wearing braces and retainers, my teeth have again become crooked. I have also noticed that my friends and sisters who had been to Dr. Meldrum have also experienced the same results. In addition, local dentists and other orthodontist have told me that this is what happens to all of his patients and that if I wanted my teeth straight, I'd have to wear braces again. When I went for check-ups after my braces were removed, I noticed my teeth starting to become crooked. But, Dr. Meldrum never mentioned that my teeth were misaligned or that I'd need more braces if I wanted them straight like his models. He simply took about 5 minutes looking at my teeth and said, "Everything looks great." Also, when I had my braces put on, the dental assistant accidentally burnt the side of my mouth because she was talking and didn't realize that the light gun had moved. And when they shaved down my teeth, the dental assistant "missed" and now, I have what looks like a crack on my tooth. I am extremely disappointed in the job that he has done on my teeth. I suggest if you are willing to pay for extra treatments in the future to go for it. If not, you should search for a different orthodontist.

Old school dentist, meaning strictly business, short on chit chat. However, I am very satisfied with results.

Dr.Meldrum is great with the teens. Be prepared for two phases of braces if you get them on your children early though. He does great work and has worked on my son as well as myself and we are pleased.
