Dr. Spencer and his team are not only amazing people but they each truly have the best interests and outcomes in mind for their patients. I wouldn’t consider any other orthopedics office in the area!

I have never been greeted with such kindness and warmth from a medical office. Everyone I interacted with was supportive, transparent, and respectful. I always have my guard up when I visit new doctors, dentists, etc., but Up North put me at ease from the very beginning. I look forward to working with them as I embark on my Invisalign journey!

We had a wonderful experience with the orthodontic team when my daughter needed an emergency wire adjustment. They were able to get us in quickly, and everyone was so kind, patient, and reassuring from the moment we arrived. The orthodontist took the time to make my daughter feel comfortable, explained everything they were doing, and fixed the problem efficiently.
It’s such a relief to know we can count on them when unexpected issues come up. Their professionalism, compassionate care, and excellent service truly went above and beyond. We are so grateful and highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for outstanding orthodontic care!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words Karina! We're so glad we could get your daughter in quickly and help make an unexpected visit a little less stressful. We know orthodontic emergencies never happen at a convenient time, so it's important to us that our patients feel cared for, comfortable, and reassured every step of the way. Thank you for trusting our team with your daughter's smile and for taking the time to share your experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

Up North Orthodontics made having braces an easy experience for our family. From our initial appointment I felt incredibly welcomed. It was a hot summer day and I had four younger siblings in tow. We were a crowd, but the staff made us feel at home and we left with popsicles! This is one of the most family friendly offices I’ve ever been to. Thank you!!
Response from the owner:Laura, thank you so much for your thoughtful review! It means the world to us that you felt welcome from the moment you walked through our doors. We know that bringing a crew of little ones to appointments can be an adventure, so we're always happy to make everyone feel comfortable (and popsicles never hurt! 😊). Thank you for trusting us with your family's smiles—we're so grateful to have you as part of the Up North Orthodontics family!

We had a great first experience! The office staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and Dr. Spencer was patient, reassuring, and fantastic with kids. Hannah and Dr Spencer took the time to explain everything clearly and made what could have been a nerve-wracking appointment feel easy and comfortable. We left feeling confident and excited to begin treatment. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words Amanda! We know that starting orthodontic treatment can feel a little overwhelming, so we're thrilled to hear that Hannah and Dr. Spencer helped make your first visit a comfortable and positive experience. Helping our patients (and parents!) feel informed and at ease is something that's very important to us. We're so excited to be part of your family's smile journey and truly appreciate your recommendation. We can't wait to see you again soon!

I brought my 7-year-old daughter in for her first consultation- she’s a thumb-sucker and is very embarrassed about her “habit”- but the entire staff made both of us feel so comfortable and at ease! Would highly recommend Dr. Spencer and his office staff:). Oh and the office is super beautiful, comfortable, and they have an excellent selection of books! Highly recommend
Response from the owner:Caitlin, thank you so much for your kind review! We’re so glad your daughter felt comfortable and supported during her first visit. We know those conversations can feel a little overwhelming for kids, and it means a lot to hear that our team helped put both of you at ease. We’re also happy you enjoyed the office (and our book collection!). 😊 Thank you for the recommendation—we look forward to seeing you both again!

What a wonderful place! My granddaughter came to visit me from downstate and realized she had forgotten her rubber band. We called this office, and they were more than happy to help by providing us with two packages. When we asked how much we owed, they kindly told us there was no charge.
Their generosity and kindness were truly appreciated. It’s rare to find such caring people willing to help without expecting anything in return. Thank you again for going above and beyond—we are very grateful!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your thoughtful review Julie! We’re so glad we could help your granddaughter while she was visiting. Sometimes it’s the little things that can make a big difference, and we were happy to lend a hand. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope you both had a wonderful visit together!

This review is overdue, but I’m glad I waited, as we now have two kiddos under Dr. Spencer’s orthodontic care at Up North Orthodontics.
I was so impressed from the very beginning when our oldest started her journey nearly two years ago. Her initial consult left a lasting impression, the team was incredibly welcoming, the process felt seamless and well-organized, and the entire experience was both professional and genuinely warm.
I especially appreciated Dr. Spencer’s conservative approach. Rather than rushing into treatment, he recommended we give her body time to do some of its natural developmental work first. That level of patience and trust in biology meant a lot to me. We began her treatment about a year after that first visit, and now six months in, we couldn’t be happier with her care and progress.
More recently, we brought another one of our kiddos in, she has a more complex health history, including some airway challenges, and is quite a bit younger. Navigating her care can feel a bit more layered, but Dr. Spencer has been nothing short of accommodating, insightful, and encouraging every step of the way. It has truly been a breath of fresh air.
As a parent who has had to navigate the medical world quite a bit, I carry a bit of that stress with me, but working with Dr. Spencer and his entire team has been such a positive, reassuring experience. We feel grateful to be in their care and would highly recommend Up North Orthodontics to any family.
Response from the owner:Kristen - wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. It really means a lot to us that you’ve trusted Dr. Spencer and our team with both of your children’s care.
We’re especially glad to hear that you’ve felt comfortable with our more patient, individualized approach along the way. Taking the time to let kids develop when appropriate is something we feel strongly about, so it’s meaningful to know that resonated with you.
It means a lot to hear that you’ve felt supported navigating some of the more complicated treatment processes. We’re truly grateful to be a steady, reassuring part of that process for your family.
Thank you again for your trust and kind words—we’re so grateful to have your family with us 😊
