This review has been a long time coming as I have had the privilege of working with Dr. Shane Markey and the 3 Leaf team for years as a general dentist; and now as a patient myself!As a dentist, you want the best for your patients, and that shouldn’t waiver when patients’ needs fall outside your purview. I know that when I send my patients to Dr. Markey they are truly in the best hands.As a colleague, I have always observed:1. Timely, organized, and thorough communication from 3 Leaf offices regarding our mutual patients’ care. Your dentist should be apprised of your orthodontic progress and the patient shouldn’t have to be the go between at cleanings or care appointments.2. The highest quality experience as reported by patients and parents. Dr. Markey is excellent with both pediatric and adult patients. Both offices are beautiful and impeccably clean. Appointments are smooth, anxiety-free, and efficient from scheduling to dismissal.3. Consistently superior orthodontic results.Dr. Markey has a well deserved reputation in and around Charlotte as the best! With locations in both Southpark and Waxhaw, the experience/results remain steadfast and that is why they continue to be my top orthodontist recommendation!As a patient, I see firsthand how Dr. Markey is unmatched in his skill, knowledge, and dedication by far. The entire team at both offices is engaging, personable, and competent. From treatment presentation, scheduling, clinical care, and follow up, you are in good hands!In the ever-changing landscape of dentistry in the greater Charlotte area, it is truly rare to find a specialist who is consistently so versatile, accessible, dedicated, and personable!Thank you, Dr. Markey, Annie, Janine and entire 3 leaf team for your exceptional care !
