"Dr.Shaw is great doctor.He is caring & explains things in detail. His dental assistant are very nice.My daughter & son have both braces from this office."
"Jesse took care of me real good and got my braces removed quickly and comfortably, he was super kind and im glad I was taken care of everyone at Shaw Orthodontics for this time."
"My daughter’s first visit to the orthodontist and it was so pleasant, quick and easy. Every staff member was super friendly and helpful. My daughter is very happy with her braces and can’t wait to come back for the bottom ones!"
"We’ve had two of our girls go through the treatment plan for braces at Shaw with Dr. Rasmussen, with wonderful results. The staff is always professional, patient, and knowledgeable. We highly recommend them."
"The staff and orthodontist are super nice and friendly. My son got his braces off recently. They communicate so well throughout the entire process."
"Y’all I have to share! Today my daughter got her braces out. I was speaking with the office staff, particularly the front office associate, and asking how she liked working here. The answer I got was just as I thought, so I begin telling her that the environment here is felt by us here as customers. The ethics that shined through the doctor, him being so personable, treating you as a person not just another patient/customer was not something you find these days. The whole office staff work fluidly together, and just all do their part never skipping a beat. Just the whole energy of the environment because of the efforts the doctors and the staff put into their work is felt from the moment you step in. The work performed has been wonderful along this whole process! These people keep you informed as well. Thank you for all that you do!"
"My daughter really enjoys her visits here! Whatever they are doing they are doing it well! Thank you for making her experience with braces enjoyable :)"
"This is an exceptional office. Everyone is always so kind and friendly and they have been very accommodating anytime we have needed a quick adjustment. I have boys age 9 and 10 both in braces with them right now and it has been a very pleasant experience. All staff and Dr. Rasmussen have been very patient with one of mine who has a lot of energy and asks a lot of questions due to anxiety. They always take their time with him and explain what they are doing."
"This office is great! Always fit us in for any small issues (popped bracket, wire) very fast and friendly atmosphere. Upfront about everything and best price we found for braces."
"Such a smooth and easy process getting my daughter signed up for braces! Thank you so much!!!"
"They are all so nice dr. Razz and all of his workers treat me so well, and I just always am so excited to come here. Totally recommend this orthodontist! ❤️❤️Update: just got my braces off and I am soo happy, I am a very particular person about things but after seeing my teeth for the first time in forever i was very happy!!"
"Dr. Razz is so friendly and fun to talk to! He has always made me feel comfortable at every appointment. His assistant Val took care of my teeth as my braces were taken off today. She is very reassuring and gentle with me. My teeth look great!"
"I’ve had a delightful experience with Dr Razz and his crew at Shaw. Given that I had traditional braces twice in my life and since I’m an older guy, I was very hesitant about starting this process yet again. I chose the Invisalign process and it has been great. At a little over 5 months my teeth are the best they have been in my life. I highly recommend the Invisalign process to anyone seeking to improve their smile. It’s fast if you wear the trays as directed. Furthermore, wearing the trays is not intrusive. I forget they are in most of the time.Highly recommend Dr Razz, his team, and the Invisalign process."
"I love how the people in here are really nice and explain to you everything step by step , Dr.razz always keeps me updated with what’s going on and recommend me to have a underbite surgery since after my braces my underbite was going to be worst. Its just been a year and I’m almost ready for my surgery , can’t wait to see my new look. Highly recommend shaw orthodontics , thanks Dr.razz , Val, and tanya for always taking care of me."
"I took my 11 year old son in for his orthodontics appointment to adjust his braces and they always have goodies and drinks and MASSIVE HIGHLIGHTERS for the taking. Staff is always smiling and very friendly. Love this place and highly recommend it!!!"
"Since day one! It's always nice to visit the Orthodontist! Everyone in the staff is super friendly and Dr Rasmussen is always friendly, personable, and gives us all the knowledge to help these braces do their job! We are so thankful for Dr Rasmussen and all the ladies that work alongside him everyday!"
"Dr. Rasmussen and his entire staff make this process a great experience! Everyone is so welcoming and helpful. From our intakes where Natalie and Dr. R walked us through the options, long term plan, and financial options with such patience, detail, and care to the actual application of our kiddo’s expander and now braces where Tanya and Valerie take time to walk us through every detail and every step of the process. Tanya even shared what sensations our kid was going to feel when cranking the expander, and Valerie took time to show us how to use the flossing tools so we would feel confident! Natalie was always there to answer questions as they came in and helped us figure out the best financial option! And Dr. R is not up selling anything! He is looking at your kid’s teeth and telling you what is the best for your particular case. This is dedicated customer service with great care for each patient! So happy we are a part of the Shaw Orthodontics family! Oh, and Meghan will always greet you with a smile and make sure when you walk in and out of those doors, you have all you need! Just a fantastic experience!!"
"Shaw orthodontist has been great at helping us walk through the process of how braces work and what to expect. They texted us before our appointment to see if we had any questions and was always quick we a response."
"They are a fantastic team! 100% recommend them! Natalie made sure I understood the process of getting braces for my son! She also gave me a really good deal for my braces! Thank you Dr. Rasmussen and Natalie for helping us out today!"
"I would give 100 stars if I could!!! The experience I have had so far with my daughters braces have been outstanding. My oldest daughter had braces ( from different place) brackets were constantly needing replaced. This time around we have not had to replace any, everything is going fantastic!!!!❤️ Watauga"
"Reviewing here because I did one on Google last year. Great experience. My braces come off next month after a year and a few months. Tanya, today, did awes..."
"Took our daughter in as a referral/consultation. Met the staff and Dr Rasmussen and decided right then and there to get her treatment that day! Efficient, Friendly and the overall care and kindness that is put into the needs of their patients leaves this office standing out among the typical Orthodontists (We have experience, 4 daughters and my braces)Would definitely recommend!"
"Our Family is so pleased with Shaw Orthodontics! My 9 year old son was referred to Shaw Orthodontist by his Dentist. We were able to quickly book an appointment with Dr. Rasmussen. On the day of my son’s appointment, we were made welcome in their office almost instantaneously. Natalie went over my son’s treatment plan and broke down the cost, something that I was worried about. The payment plan options were much appreciated!!! Dr. Rasmussen came in and spent time with us. He thoroughly explained the phase one treatment plan and took time to really make sure that I was comfortable and understood the process. My son got his braces put on that same day!Over the course of his treatment, my son had a few hiccups as far as a broken bracket and loose wires, due to eating harder foods that he wasn’t supposed to eat 😬. Holly was always able to squeeze us in and the team was able to fix the problem and get his mouth back to feeling more comfortable.1/26/23 Today my son got his braces off and we are thrilled with the results! It was hard to believe that my son’s teeth could change in such a short period of time. His new smile is such a confidence booster for himself. I can’t thank the Shaw Orthodontics team enough for your concern for Ivan, as well as for genuinely showing that you care."
"This place felt like a family. The staff was always so friendly. They took care of any problems I had. I even had an incidence, needing a paper for the military about my braces and they were more than willing to work with me while I was stressing about it.😂 I would recommend this place to anyone. Truly an amazing place with amazing doctors and staff. And Dr. Rasmussen is my homie for life!"
"My daughter has been going to Shaw for about 6 months this now and we absolutely love this place!! My daughter counts down the days till her next appointment. The staff is amazing, energetic and friendly. The environment is always clean and humble!! We could not be more happy with her braces journey!! We entrust Dr. Shaw and his team with her beautiful smile and we have referred a few friends to come over to Shaw Orthodontics!! Thank you for being a stunning group!!!"
"Today was the start of my daughter’s braces journey and I must say the service, the people, the ENERGY is AMAZING!! The staff was welcoming and made us feel like part of the family! Dr. Rasmussen aka Dr. Ras was very informative and made this process seamless! If you are searching for an orthodontist and a team of people that will take care of you, look no further then Shaw Orthodontics!!"

"We are sooo so pleased with Shaw Orthodontics in Watauga. My child had a previous retainer from a pallet expansion, and the first day we went in to see Dr Shaw he was able to evaluate her teeth, remove the retainer and go ahead with braces that same day. They worked with my financial needs and helped me set up a workable payment plan.We’ve been in treatment with Dr Shaw’s office now for almost 2 years and they always do a fantastic job. The staff and techs are high energy and always friendly, and Shaw is very outgoing and funny. If a bracket breaks or a wire is poking, I’m able to get an appointment in a reasonable amount of time for my daughter. Shaw’s office is always going fun contests and prize drawings, and cool Instagram and FB contests. My kiddos treatment is nearing the end, so we’ll be sad to not see this doc anymore. Though I may consider Invisalign in the future for myself. I would definitely come here!"
"We currently have two kids seeing Dr. Shaw for braces. The office staff is always nice & professional. Dr. Shaw is awesome! I highly recommend his office to anyone looking for orthodontic treatment."
"Dr Shaw and his ENTIRE staff are AMAZING!! My daughter started her braces journey over a year ago and I have been happy with the entire process.Dr. Shaw is really fun (check him out on social media) and engaging!! 10 out of 10 recommend his for braces 😁"
"Amazing orthodontist and staff!! We already really loved our experience with Dr Shaw, but the way they have handled things during covid has really been awesome! I was worried when all this started how we would proceed as we had just started our journey with braces, but it has gone seamlessly! Thank you Dr Shaw and staff for the excellent care you show our entire family! Looking forward to having 2 in braces with you guys soon!! 😉😎😎"
"Thank you Dr. Shaw and the entire Shaw Orthodontic team! I could cry tears of joy right now. As a single mom the hardest thing to do is take on a the responsibility of another bill, however this wonderful place gave me options that are a comfort to my pockets. Mrs. Carrie established great rapport with me and the patient (my son) making us feel comfortable. My son has pressured me for years now for braces and I just couldn't afford it. Today my son was filled with joy because he finally got his braces! The breakdown of treatment, the friendliness, the sincerity. I am very pleased to know that there are good people out here that will work with you without judgement. Chose Shaw Orthodontics because I'm am so glad we did. Thank you again!"

Manage to be able to get my daughter braces started on the same day with our first visit. Dr. Shaw was awesome explaining everything and making all of the happen also. Great atmosphere and best experience ever with an orthodonist. Today starts are way to a more big beautiful smile for my daughter thanks to yall!!!!!!"

They were so patient and understanding of exactly what I wanted and worked so hard to get my smile perfect. They are super nice and welcoming and I recommend his team to everyone wanting braces or Invisalign."

When we went in this morning for our first visit, they were so sweet and kind. They instantly made us feel as we have been part of the Shaw family. My daughter was completely relaxed and so excited to get her braces on. Dr. Shaw is amazing as well as all of his team. I have two more children to get braces on and we will definitely be seeing Dr. Shaw for them as well. My daughter can’t stop smiling. Thank you Shaw Orthodontics"
"I have been with shaw ortho since they took over the office in watauga from Janet Stenson and both practices did awesome ortho work on my daughter but I am leaving this review to tell my appreciation to the reception Carrie because a situation came up at the end of my daughters 1st stage of braces claiming I still owed almost 400 dollars after I had paid in full at the beginning and because of some billing issues between the insurance company and doctor Stenson I still had to pay the remaining balance but carrie had this taken care of so just what to say thank you and y'all are awesome"
"I came in for a consultation for braces. I was immediately greeted with the receptionist's name. Everybody, EVERYBODY is so friendly! Dr. Shaw is so thorough in explaining why this is happening with your teeth and with a solution. I go back in December for my braces and I wouldn't want anyone else to place them! I highly recommend!"
"I knew this is where I wanted my daughter to be in regards to her braces just from liking Shaw Orthodontics on Facebook. They immediately sent a nice email about their office and service. I then recieved a friendly and informative phone call to set up a consult that was not 10 months away. Once in the office we were completely won over with the professionalism, friendly cool office. We are home!!!"
"Guys, you cannot imagine the things I’ve been through with my previous ortho and what all has happened with my braces experience. I saw an ad on Facebook for Dr. Shaw’s practice and got in touch with Kristina immediately. She was GREAT and extremely helpful even before meeting me! Once I was there, I felt more at ease (other than the horrid photos) than I’ve ever felt being at a general dentist or at an orthodontist with her and Dr. Shaw! This place is absolutely AMAZING. If you get the chance, go! You just won’t understand until you’re there. One visit is all it took! 10 stars, not just 5."
"Both of our children have had their teeth straightened by Dr. Stinson. Our son had his first round of braces with a Dr. in Mansfield and we were so unhappy with the experience. A big, super fancy office filled with movie viewing rooms, video games and very unfriendly people (really expensive too). The doctor almost never spoke with us and he would not have said hello if I walked past him on the street. Dr. Stinson is wonderful and so is her staff. Everyone is very friendly and they truly seem to care about our family. I would not hesitate to recomend her to friends and family; our kids teeth look great. Todd A"
