Wow COINCIDENCE! Archwired members with the same ortho...

#1 Post by BraceMD »

Wow, I am shocked.

I've been following everyone's stories here for the past year and a half. I've noticed that AttaGirl2's ortho seemed to have the same treatment opinions as my ortho...

So we just figured out: Attagirl and I BOTH HAVE THE SAME ORTHODONTIST!!!!!!!! I'm just amazed, because I've been reading her posts for a long time but never actually knew that we have the same ortho. Wow! Small world!

fitchick (Julie)and I also have the same ortho. We didn't know until we met on here.

Now we e-mail each other, plotting ways to make him laugh and/or embarrass him when we have our appointments :D

That's funny ! I guess you can exchange even more about your feelings, treatment, etc. But I figure chances are if somebody is very happy with their ortho and some other Archwired member lives in the same area and looks for referrals, it's likely to happen more often !

I also see the same ortho as another poster on here and we both hate hate hate him. He is really bad about cancelling appointments among other things. I am looking for a new ortho at this point since I am early in treatment. If I had only known about this site sooner i would have found out about my ortho before I picked him.

Oh Susieq182!

Come and see our ortho, Lisa65 and I need some more ammunition. I'm sure he is going to get his own back on us two very soon. If you are reading this David, then Lisa and I have a little treat in store for you this week!!!!!

Maybe someone in your area could recommend another ortho. Is it easy for you to swap during your treatment?

Its so cool that you have the same ortho. I live in a small town, so almost everyone has the same ortho. Actually I think we got pretty lucky, because the one in our town is awesome.
