A Note from Dr. Way

We understand and can appreciate that everyone would like to have their son or daughter's appointments after school. Unfortunately we cannot see everyone between 2:30 and 5:00pm. To maximize the number of non-school hour appointments we will continue to see the shorter (fifteen-minute) appointments early in the morning and after school. By doing this we will have our patients in general miss the least amount of school. We arrive very early so we will be ready to begin seeing patients at 7:15am.

All longer appointments (thirty minutes or longer) will need to be made during school hours. This includes repairing broken appliances, bonding brackets, bandings, seating all new appliances and removing braces. Taking initial, progress, and final records along with rescheduling missed or canceled appointments will also be made during school hours.

In addition, I would ask our patients to share before and after school appointments. If your last appointment was after school you can help others by scheduling your next appointment during an off-hour or lunch time.

We all want the same thing. We want the best care for your son or daughter with the least amount of interruption of all our busy lives. My wife is an educator. I understand very well how important school attendance is. I also understand how important a healthy and beautiful smile is. It takes a commitment to both school and to building your lifelong smile!

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
