Dr Joiner and his staff are worth 10 stars. His office is the highest rating I give to any medical/dental office! Dr Joiner has helped both my children thru orthodontics over many years and he and his staff have been consistently excellent. From the staff check-in, scheduling, and patient care I have felt in excellent hands. He addresses all my concerns without ever making me feel rushed and manages to do that all at the scheduled time despite having a very busy practice. In addition, he understands ways to motivate people to take an active interest in their care. I am in the medical profession and have used this office experience to try and emulate it in my own practice.

The best! Dr. Joiner and staff are simply the best! Dr. Joiner's practice manages to combine state-of-the-art (and art it is!) orthodontics and great efficiency with an extraordinarily pleasant and personable delivery of services. That is to say that everyone is knowledgeable, fast, friendly and NICE! The office is tremendously kid-friendly from the decor to the incentive programs (and goodies) that encourage compliance. From the very beginning, we were impressed. My daughter's initial assessment was extremely thorough. We were informed of exactly what work she needed to have done and how that would happen. Throughout her treatment (nearly two years now) all of our questions have been more than satisfactorily answered, and she is making great progress. Look no further!
