Leone & Vaughn Orthodontics

I would NOT recommend this orthodontist. The treatment plan was inconsistent and continually changing. I am glad we are done with these docs and would never take our kids again. Every appointments were a long wait. We waited over 45 minutes most times to be seen by the assistant. I had my teen time the actual time spent with Dr.Leone once and it was only 78 seconds!!! When I have met with them, they mentioned the new things they have bought or the exotic holiday they went on and the marketing blitz they are doing (sports jerseys for soccer, basket ball teams, .) or the fancy stuff they have bought for the office (with the $9000 I paid him for 78 second visits). Our child did not have 'bad teeth' to start so I do not have the dramatic difference in the end that would counter-balance all the bad service and the negative experience.

Do not even bother to go there for the consultation! This place is all about marketing and getting as much money from you as possible! your health and well being never a priority (priority is too generous, its never even a second though). Not only you will find several versions of their websites, but also a huge amount of "EXCELLENT" reviews, all fake. I wouldn't be surprised if they hire a company to post fake reviews

They sell themselves very well on the websites, but if you pay attention to the details, you will find them ridiculous:
They try to make you believe that they are experts in the field, but in reality, if you ask any good dentists/orthodontists/doctors in Seattle area they'll tell the true colors of LandV their treatment is to make as much money off you as possible, doing procedures you don't need!

They posted many pictures of before and after teeth on the sites, which is just marketing ! Educate yourself first and save yourself a lot of troubles! Some of the pictures even showed that he did FOUR BICUSPIDS EXTRACTION! OMG, this is probably the most evil thing in this field! Don't be surprised when later you get Sunken Face, TMJ problem, Inadequate Tongue Space, Narrow Airway, Headache, Sleep Apnea....

He acts like he is professional, but a lot of stuff he says and does are just beyond harmful to you! He gives you a plan just by looking at your face and teeth, and all the x-ray parts are just a show! He will tell you that your arches cannot be expanded because you are an adult. Come on! Nowadays many adults and seniors are posting blogs and pictures of their fully expanded arches using appliances like DNA appliance, Homeoblock, ALF etc. When he is unable to adjust your teeth, he will just start cutting them, extracting them, ....

If you spend some time with those excellent reviews, you will find majority are fake, all negative reviews are filtered. LOL. Please!

Last thing, if he has time to respond to a bad review, you know how much time he gives the attentional to hundreds of patients! if you still decide to go there and get treated, I sincerely wish you good luck! because you will definitely need it!

I highly recommend the office of Leone and Vaughn if you are anticipating orthodontic treatment. This husband and wife team are over-the-top professional, friendly and high-tech. Both teach at the U.W. dental school and offer cutting edge treatment options. The Drs. definitely set the tone for this office, the entire staff is highly competent and very friendly. You don't have to see the orthodontist that your dentist recommends, you can make this connection yourself, this office offers superior care. I just got my braces off today. I love my smile, my teeth look beautiful! I can't stop smiling. I waited until I was 50 to take care of straightening my teeth, I should have done this years ago. If you are considering ortho treatment do not postpone it! Move ahead with your goals to make your smile more beautiful, you will not regret it.

Fabulous!!

Dr Leone & Vaughn are a very nice married couple.
I was not recommended by anyone but work near by, so I decided to talk with them due to my proxmity to work. I was initially impressed with the level of professionalism, in addition to them having various payment options and them being very easy to work with and talk to. They are very timely when you are scheduled for your appointments, as well, are flexible when you need to reschedule etc. I have now completed my services with Dr Leone & Vaughn and I will miss dropping in to see them every 6-8 weeks. They are the best! I highly recommend anyone looking for Orthodontic services. I think I have a fabulous smile...thanks to Dr Leone & Vaughn!!

I had both inside&outside braces, could switch to Invisalign in the last 3 months (didn't expect but was happy). Took 1yr&8months to complete that was shorter than I expected. Reasonable cost, very talented doctors. All staff is always cheerful, very nice office environment. Front desk also corresponds promptly all the time. It was amazing how Dr Leone and Vaughn proceeded my process, wearing braces at adult age shouldn't be fun but was fun to watch how my tooth moved fast and neat. I would highly recommend them to anyone no matter how old he/she is.

There are no words to describe how satisfied I am with my results. I am simply amazed of how professional & thorough Dr Leone & Vaughn as well as there staff were. I would highly recommend there services a thousand times over. They definitely stand by there reputation. Thank you all so much for your superb skill & quality. Sincerely Jonah.

Adult orthodontics was not on my to do list. However, when I found myself in need of orthodontic work I was lucky to be referred to Leone and Vaughn!The reception and office staff are kind. Working with me to ensure my appointments fit into my schedule.The supporting staff, super friendly. I had quick, smooth, fast, and painless x-rays, impressions and wire removals. Every time.Both orthodontists are efficient and sincere. They are patient with questions and make sure everything is done correctly. Genuinely impressed, I will recommend them to anyone in need of their services.

Dr Leone, Dr Vaughn, and all of their staff, including the receptionists, assistants, and patient care coordinator are absolutely wonderful. I have been going here for a little over a year for Invisalign braces and have had nothing but positive experiences with each appointment. Both Dr Leone and Dr Vaughn are very caring, friendly and above all great orthodontists! They have made my smile perfect and I could ask for nothing more! They have two office locations, one in Queen Anne and the other in Madison Park, both of which are very modern and comfortable. Scheduling or changing appointments was always easy with the friendly receptionists. If any problems came up during treatment, they always went out of their way to help you. The have very easy payment options for paying for Invisalign. Invisalign is not cheap, but compared to other orthodontists, Leone and Vaughn offered the best price and the best payment options. I would recommend Leone and Vaughn to anyone who has ever considered improving their teeth!

Another adult in braces.
Finished and happy! I had experienced braces twice before in my life. This time it was 21 months 2 weeks and 3 days .. but who is counting.
Dr. Leone & Dr. Vaughn could not have been more professional and I felt that they always had my best interest at heart. The situation was difficult at best. They had to co-ordinate with several other specialists and did so with ease and created a caring situation, they get top recommendations from me.

I met with Dr. Vaughn in May to go over my treatment plan. I went to the Madison Park location where they worked with my busy schedule and got me in on their lunch break. From the time I walked in, to the time I left, I was taken care of. Everything was explained in detail and with care. I was initially very nervous about having braces as an adult and was very excited by the time I left.
I have since had appointments at both locations with both Dr. Vaughn and Dr. Leone and feel that both are amazing, caring and knowledgeable orthodontists. The staff are friendly and genuinely look happy to be at work! I am looking forward to my new smile and know my time in braces will be well worth it! Thank you Dr.'s L and V!

Dr. Leone and Dr. Vaughn are definitely cutting edge in all respects. As an adult patient wearing braces, the feeling surrounds you as soon as you pick up the phone or enter one of their offices.I've been to both locations and both are like visiting a hotel lobby or a luxury spa. I personally love the Madison Park office because that is where most of my adjustment appointments have occurred but I did visit the Queen Anne office for a suresmile scan. (I don't quite get review #1 because I've not experienced a long wait in the waiting room and actually I would like to page through the magazines more.)
Overall superior service while my teeth are moving and my smile is being created.The Doctors are excellent and their staff is a refection.My friends, family are all recommended-New Smile

I could rant here about the 11 appointments that I have had that took twice the scheduled time. One may think this is because of some extensive treatment?! Nope, you can always, I mean always, expect to sit in the magazine filled waiting room for a minimum of 35-50 minutes. I know this because I have kept track, I use my lunch hours to go to my appointments have time sheets to prove it. I even called once because I had a really packed week, to ask if my appointment would really only be the hour they scheduled.If it wasn't, I would have to reschedule. I still sat in the waiting room and chair for 45 minutes. Overall: I have had one enjoyable experience, the front desk people are very nice. But basically after you pay, your time is worth NOTHING.
