Marisa Menzel
We have had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Kim. My oldest daughter had her braces removed today, and her teeth look amazing! My second daughter is currently wearing her braces, and everything is going great. Dr. Kim is always very informative, helpful and lovely to deal with, as are his staff. They have been available for questions, or appointments every step of the way. We highly recommend Smile Orthodontics!

Nishat S
Dr. Kim is patient, informative, and explains everything so well. He really made the time to go through all my questions. I was pretty nervous about everything so it took a while, but he was very understanding and made me feel completely at ease. Would recommend 1000%
Kyuree Kim
After two years, I finished my braces treatment with Dr. Douglas Kim. Although I had to drive from Staten Island, I am very satisfied with how my teeth turned out and it was so worth it! Dr. Douglas listened to my problems and concerns with braces and tried his best to help me get the best outcome. I highly recommend this place, everything is super clean and the staff is so friendly and nice 🙂

너무 친절하시고 정확한 의사선생님!!
여행중 이슈가 생겨서 급하게 찾아간것에도 다행히 잘 치료할 수 있었습니다 ♡ 최고!!
Lonnie Seo
Highly highly recommend Dr Kim! After completing my alignment with him, I’m now able to chew and bite much more comfortably, something I couldn’t really do due to my misalignment, and I feel so much more confident with my smile. He has excellent bedside manners and I love how he explains his plan so it’s easy to understand. You can tell he really cares about the quality of his work — even after completion of my alignment, he’s worked with my dentist to help in recommending the best treatment for my mouthguard. His staff is also very nice and helpful, which is a nice cherry on top. I’m very pleased with the results of my alignment!
Justin Cho
Dr. Douglas Kim is a great orthodontist. He’s friendly and explains in-depth of everything, and seems to truly care about his patients. It’s no surprise he has so many great reviews. I’d recommend him to anyone who needs braces or orthodontic care.
