What our patients are saying about us!

I had the best experience with my braces, I even kind of miss them now! Thank you to Farmington Valley Orthodontics for your hospitality and kindness.

Tove

Dr. M is someone who absolutely CARES about each patient individually. One of the best providers I’ve ever encountered. Highly recommended!

Liz

Can’t thank Dr. Menjivar and the team at Farmington Valley Orthodontics enough. After a consultation, I accepted the 18 month plan that Dr. Menjivar said would benefit me the best. She hit that 18 month mark exactly.

Dan

Dr. Menjivar is very knowledgeable and the entire staff are all very warm and welcoming. My daughter has a beautiful smile after treatment with braces, and we are very happy with the results. She also helped me with a retainer and they were able to arrange an appointment the same day! They are accommodating and work with your schedule and are always very helpful. If there are any issues, they schedule you right . Highly recommend to anyone in need of orthodontic treatment!

Mirela

Excellent for Adult Orthodontia. I highly recommend Dr. Natalia Menjivar and Farmington Valley Orthodontics. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Menjivar at our initial consultation. Dr. Menjivar is personable, knowledgeable and professional. The staff is friendly, helpful and accommodating. I’m very satisfied with the results and could not have asked for a better orthodontia experience.
