PATIENT REVIEWS

The last time I saw an orthodontist I was in 7th grade. Now I’m 28 and–until recently–was walking around with the same permanent retainer I’ve had since then. The metal was starting to poke me, and one of the wires had come undone, so it was time for an upgrade. Dr. Tomblyn swiftly and painlessly removed my old retainer and took a mold of my teeth. He explained what he was doing every step of the way and put me at ease. It’s obvious that he is skilled, knowledgable, and passionate about his work. A few days later my new retainer was ready to go, and I look forward to maintaining my teeth sans decades-old metal. Bonus points for the beautiful office–especially the huge comfy couch and coffee bar in the waiting area.

What a fantastic practice! I had been seeing Dr. Zapalac, who previously owned the practice, for several years and loved him. When I found out about the transition I was a little skeptical…I don’t like change when I am already comfortable and I knew my son was very close to beginning treatment. Dr. Zapalac introduced me and my son to Dr. Travis Tomblyn and I was instantly reassured! Dr. Tomblyn is so kind and sweet. So great with my son. His assistants and office staff are just as great. Orthodontics can be scary for kids but they’re all so reassuring and comforting. They explain everything so my son knows what to expect so there is no apprehension. They take the time to listen to and address any questions we may have. I believe they all love what they do which makes all the difference in attitudes and level of care you receive. Office is well managed and very conscientious of scheduling appropriately for good time management

I have been extremely pleased with our outstanding experience at Westlake Family Ortho! The staff is warm, friendly and welcoming. They make you feel like a part of their “family”. Dr. Tomblin and his crew have been MORE than patient with my son’s lack of compliance in not wearing his bands. They are also a very punctual bunch. We rarely wait more than a few minutes in the waiting room-if that. I now have my two other kiddos in ortho with Dr. Tomblin. I would definitely recommend this practice!

Hard to believe but we have been patients at Westlake Family Orthodontics for over 5 years now and we have had nothing short of the best service! I agree with all the posts… our kids actually like coming to the orthodontist and that DOES say a lot! Today our son got his braces removed and they basically threw him a party, making him feel so special… balloons, camera and lots of candy! Thanks Dr. Travis, Scott and all for making this such a fun experience!

I came to Dr. Tomblyn by way of other happy patients, and we have been most happy with our experience! His staff is so kind and professional that my kids get excited to go there. They have games for kids and waters/coffee for mom; it’s the most peaceful 30 minutes of my month 🙂 Dr. Tomblyn is incredibly professional, smart and safety-oriented. I appreciate that he didn’t rush me to pull baby teeth to jumpstart, additionally, he has been semi-annually checking/reassessing my oldest and waiting for the right time rather than starting too early. He also notified me when we were unaware of an infected tooth that did have to go. I truly trust his judgment and advice. Even during COVID times, they have kept us feeling safe. And then today, my son got his braces off and his smile is straight and gorgeous! Thank you, Dr. Tomblyn and staff for providing top-notch service and for truly caring!

What a great experience. I may not love braces as an adult but they don’t show, people don’t notice them and there has been almost no discomfort. But the Staff and Dr. Tomblyn, well they are the best! Punctual, super nice, professional and really good at what they do. They could not be nicer to you! Even played special music for me the day I came. My teeth are moving super fast and Dr. Tomblyn has done a wonderful job. Thanks Guys for making a memorable and wonderful experience. Oh and the office is really nice and clean. There is nothing negative to say about this place what so ever……..Ceil

We absolutely love this place. Scott couldn’t be more helpful or kind. Connor, my 11- year old got his braces on about 4 months ago and we can already see such a difference. Dr. Tomblyn recommended the least invasive of treatments of any of orthodontist we visited. My son loves his visits and feels extremely comfortable in the office. Today, he left his punch card and Scott offered to hold onto it for us until the next visit. Such a warm, welcoming office.

If you’re looking for a perfect smile, schedule an appointment with Dr. Travis. He genuinely cares about making your new smile the best it can possibly be. The treatment was explained very thoroughly and I had a clear understanding afterwards. I was thankful he was willing to meet my needs as an adult needing braces with the options provided, and surprisingly I walked out so excited to get started on my new smile!! The office and staff are also a bonus, so nice! Thanks Dr. Travis and team!!! I can’t wait to see my new smile!

Just under 2 years and it’s finally done! Braces finally off. Thank you to Dr. Travis Tomblyn, Chris ,Scott and the entire staff , @ Westlake Family Othodontics! The entire experience was phenomenal. From the initial consultation two years ago to this unusual time given the virus environment we find ourselves in the staff has been helpful and extremely communicative. The patient education, the service, scheduling of appointments and everything in between was incredibly smooth and professional. Every effort was made to accommodate me or make me feel comfortable and at ease with what to expect. Highly recommend this office!

I stumbled upon Dr. Travis and Dr. Jen after calling the number of my childhood orthodontist, Dr. Zapalac. I found out the business had been bought by Travis and Jen and I decided to give them a try…I needed a nightguard…not rocket science. Wow! Dr. Travis blew me away with his expertise, kindness, and genuine care. Fast forward about a year and I took my oldest three children for a ortho check to see how things looked. All three kids saw him at least 3 times each for over a year and a half (while paying nothing) until he felt my third youngest needed treatment. The older two are still being monitored-“see you in 6 months” and the eldest (13) will be getting braces this winter. All that to say, he doesn’t have a set formula–it really is personalized and wanting the best for the kid/family both financially and developmentally. And then the rest of the staff…Scott responds to you in like 10 minutes via email and is so great and patient with questions/scheduling. The ortho techs (I’m sure they have a more professional name!) are SO knowledgeable. I can also tell that Dr. Travis treats them with so much respect because I like to observe that subtle interactions with a doctor and his staff. Having four kids and being a pediatric nurse, I’ve asked alot of questions regarding “early intervention” vs. “superfluous tinkering” vs. benefits of delaying treatment and he is grounded in his answers/methodology. I totally trust him. All in all, try them out. I think you find what you are looking for.

Wow! By far the most friendly and welcoming business I’ve ever encountered. Every single employee there always has a friendly smile with jokes and laughs. Every time I went back after my first visit just made me want to go back more and more. They are kind, caring, funny, lively, and just all around have a positive culture and energy. This is the kind of place you want your kids going to… I was in a tough situation having lost my retainer and they handled it so well I was amazed at how kind and understanding they were and how smoothly the process went. Not only is it an outstanding atmosphere to be a part of but the service is also extraordinary. They did my braces perfectly and really turned everything around. If I could give above a 5 star rating I would. Overall Westlake Family Orthodontics is filled with amazing people doing what they love extremely well. You can really tell when you walk into a business wether the employees get along with their boss and wether they work together or are unhappy, and from the moment you walk in here everyone is joyful and they love what they do. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone and everyone looking to get something done, this experience has been absolutely amazing! Thank you Westlake Family Orthodontics!

I called Westlake Family Orthodontics to get a new set of retainers as I lost mine years ago and noticed some shifting in my teeth. I was trying to find the orthodontist where I got my braces on, but couldn’t seem to and I’m so happy I called Westlake Family thinking it was them. I don’t think I’ve ever had someone be so kind and helpful to me over the phone just answering my many questions and hypotheticals. I had to get some veneers done before I was able to finish getting my retainers made, and they were so amazing at creating a schedule that fit around everything I needed done. Whenever I visited the office, I was welcomed warmly and always had the best experience. Thank you so much, Westlake Family Orthodontics. I recommend you see them if you are in need of an orthodontist office!

The staff here went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. The level of professionalism and compassion exceeded all of my expectations. From start to finish of treatment we were completely satisfied with the results and ALWAYS greeted with the biggest smiles by the staff members here. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Tomblyn to my friends and family.

I took my granddaughter for a consultation and examination and who would have guessed but she actually left with a full set of braces! Scott was awesome with our scheduling and with his warm welcome when we arrived. Everyone we came into contact with made us so happy we made the decision to go with Dr. Tomblyn and his team. Professional yet ever so warm. Efficient but not in a rush. In our Westlake area there are a lot of choices for orthodontics – we are so far extremely happy we chose WFO. My granddaughter is actually looking forward to her journey with them!

I have had work done by both Dr. Travis and Dr. Jen Tomblyn back when they were in WV. I have a very complicated situation with my jaw/teeth and they are the only orthodontists that I trust to help me. Not only because of the excellent quality or work, but because they are very understanding of the fears that I had when it came to getting work done on my mouth. It’s easy to see why they graduated at the top of their class. They are both very knowledgeable, detail oriented, and take pride in what they do.

I don’t write reviews, in fact this may be my first time ever, but I have to applaud every single staff member at Westlake Family Orthodontics, including of course Dr. Tomblyn himself. I went through the difficult process of having braces as an adult, completing my treatment a few months ago, and my 15 year old son is still treating. My teeth look and feel great! Everyone has been extremely patient, kind and attentive to all of my questions and concerns and worked really hard (and I mean, really hard) to make sure the end result was worth it. Thank you!

Dr. Travis and his team helped my son feel comfortable during his year with braces. From day one, the entire staff was kind, gentle and encouraging. When my son got his braces removed recently, Dr. Travis was genuinely thrilled with the results. As were we! My son had a very pronounced underbite and now has a beautiful, open smile. We couldn’t be happier. Scott (AMAZING at the front desk) sent us the best before and after pictures of my son’s smile. His confidence has skyrocketed. Simply the best.

My daughter has been seeing Dr. Travis for a few months and we just love him. I felt like from the very beginning he had a good plan that made sense for her. I felt like the pricing was fair, and that there was no upselling, in fact, it was very reasonable compared to other consultations we had. Now that was exciting! He is very, great with the kiddos and adults alike. We are so fortunate to have found him!

Drs. Tomblyn and Tomblyn (and staff) are so professional and really make their clients feel at ease while servicing their orthodontic needs. They are very informative and they truly care about each patient they treat. I know that they have each patients best interest at heart and this is why they shine in their profession. The entire staff is wonderful and amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone with any orthodontic needs. And, their office is top notch in a prime location…easily accessible and always easy to get in for any emergencies.

Our entire family of 4 has been treated by Dr. Tomblyn and his team and we couldn’t be happier. Every staff member is so friendly and communication with all has been outstanding. They do their best to accommodate everyone’s needs also in regards to payment plans, family discounts, free-of-charge add ons and replacements and fast repair of broken appliances without questions asked. On a professional level, Dr. Tomblyn strives to find solutions (and devices) for unique dental situations and goes above and beyond to achieve a perfect outcome!

I remember that feeling of dread I had knowing my kids had braces looming. We got recommendations from our pedi dentist to check a few orthodontists out. My daughter and I overwhelmingly liked WFO the best – and much to our surprise, they also turned out to have the best price (by a substantial amount). Dr. Tomblyn and his staff are so warm, friendly, and professional. They really go above and beyond to make their patients have both great care and a great experience. The office is cute, and it’s just a nice place to visit. I never seem to have to stay long though-they are so efficient with their scheduling. My daughter is now a year into braces, and I can honestly say, it has been no big deal. We went today, and my son had 2 baby teeth extracted today in preparation for braces eventually. Dr. Tomblyn didn’t even charge us for that procedure. And now, I don’t have to dread this whole process for my son- and he’s even looking forward to getting braces someday!

Two yrs ago when moving to Austin, I was given Dr. Travis Tomblyn name as contact by my dentist back home in WV. With that said, when I needed orthodontal assistance with my bite, it was inevitable to call and go see Dr. Tomblyn. What a great experience. Even with COVID-19 prolonging treatment visits, I couldn’t be happier with the results. The patience and the perfectionist in Dr. Tomblyn’s care shows everytime I smile from his excellent work.

Dr. Travis Tomblyn and his staff are miracle workers! We were referred to Westlake Family Orthodontics after my dentist had done all he could. My child had several major issues, and with Dr. Tomblyn’s help, everything was corrected in two years. The process was not only painless, it was pleasant. We first went over our specific goals and discussed a plan and timeline. They were very upfront about duration of treatment, financing, and costs. The process was easy and appointments always ran on time. The Wi-Fi, playroom for younger kids, big screen TV, and great coffee are all added bonuses. My son’s smile is now beautiful and regardless of whether his teeth shift, the major issues have been corrected. My son loved his time here – the entire staff is wonderful and amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone with any orthodontic needs.

I was slightly nervous to see an orthodontist who doesn’t know my teeth like the one from back home but Dr. Travis made me feel comfortable and right at home! I came to Dr. Travis after my permanent retainer broke. My first visit, I had a tooth that was slightly kicked out and he suggested making a minor adjustment to my night retainer to push the tooth back in place before putting the permanent retainer back on. 1 month later, I have a permanent retainer on my bottom teeth again – fully straight! He went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. My second visit, he helped correct a slight awkward bite by shaving down the back of my teeth. No matter what you go in for, I’m certain Dr. Travis will take a holistic approach to your visit and orthodontic health. I will certainly refer him!

I’m a patient at Westlake Family Orthodontics and I get a kick out of going because the office always has cool games to win gift cards. The hygienists are very sweet and gentle. I thought I would dread getting braces, but Dr. Tomblyn’s office has made it more enjoyable than I expected. What I love the most is in less than a month my teeth look straight and pretty! Now, 2 of my younger siblings are patients and also like it. I can’t wait to get my braces off and see my new smile.

Can’t say enough great things about Westlake Family Orthodontics! My daughter Sydney needed braces for some crowding and an overbite 18 months ago and yesterday was her braces removal day. Everyone from Scott at the reception desk to Michelle Dr Tomblyn’s assistant to Dr Travis Tomblyn himself walked us through what to expect and gave us an affordable realistic plan to expect. Our experience was first rate! They are all warm, funny, accommodating and above all professional setting the highest standard of care. I highly recommend Westlake Orthodontics for all your orthodontia needs you won’t be disappointed!

Westlake Family Orthodontics is a great place to check out if you’re needing braces for your kiddos or yourself. Me and my kids love everything about them. The entire staff are super awesome and for the moms and dads who have to bring the little ones with them, don’t worry because they have a great area for them while they wait. I highly recommend!!

I highly recommend Westlake Family Orthodontics. I had Dr. T. Tomblyn and he was efficient but always took the time to explain what he was doing and why. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. I had Invisalign and I wasn’t always compliant with wearing them like I should but they never made me feel guilty. I love my teeth now and am very happy with my smile. The coolest thing is they have a candy wall so that after you get your braces off you get to fill up a cup of candy that’s off-limits while wearing your braces. It’s a great place for kids and adults.

I am thankful our family found Westlake Family Orthodontics because I know my boys are receiving an impeccable, individualized care plan. My boys actually like going to the offices and I believe this is because of the laid back and fun atmosphere. The entire staff is always welcoming, professional and attentive. Appointments begin promptly and living in Austin… the cherry on top is definitely the convenient location. Families have a lot of options in Westlake when it comes to orthodontic care. I should know. I created a spreadsheet when I started down this journey. After researching, vetting and visiting multiple sites, I can say that I am confident in my choice and have not looked back.

I never thought I’d say I love taking my kids to the orthodontist BUT, I love taking my kids to the orthodontist! Westlake Family Orthodontics is a calm office that temporarily gives us a break from the hustle of errands while giving my kids pretty teeth. Win, win! The staff is amazingly nice and knowledgeable and so incredibly good with kids. As if that wasn’t enough, they gave me the best sibling discount and I did my research with several other offices in town. I highly recommend Dr Tomblyn and his crew.

Went in today with my children for a consultation. It was by far the best experience I’ve had. We were welcomed in with smiles and great positive upbeat attitudes. They front desk even realized my kids and knew their names even with it being our first time in. This place is amazing.

Three of my four children are patients here and we couldn’t be happier. Dr. Tomblyn is great with the kids and clearly puts a lot of thought into each of their specific needs. We are seeing great results. The staff are also very nice to work with and they somehow make attending the orthodontist a pleasant experience. I highly recommend Westlake Family Orthodontists!

So happy with this Team! If you want amazing service and bedside manner, I highly recommend Westlake Family Orthodontics. I was a patient years ago an knew I wanted my daughter in the best hand during her treatment. Phase one completed and we’ll be back for Phase two when ready!

You are treated as though you are their only patient from the moment one enters, through on-site diagnostics (x-rays) and the exam by their doctor or physician’s assistant. Cordial, friendly, professional. Their patient care is very impressive. Short wait time. I was visiting Austin from out of state and had severe knee pain. I found this medical group online. I called and they got me in quickly. My PA Ashton identified the problem immediately based on her many years of experience having worked with a very prominent Orthopedist. This should be your go to center for orthopedic care!

Dr. Travis and his staff are the best! My family has moved several times and I have three children who were in braces. The transfer could not have been easier! Pick WESTLAKE FAMILY ORTHODONTICS Dr. Travis and his staff go the extra mile! I could not be happier we found this office. My children’s teeth are gorgeous.
