Alabama’s Top Rated Local® Orthodontists Award Winner: Island Orthodontics

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Island Orthodontics is a two-time award winner in Alabama for 2019!

Whether you’re looking for the right orthodontist for your child or yourself, look no further than Island Orthodontics in Baldwin and Mobile.

Island Orthodontics has received more than 150 reviews from four verified review sites with an average rating of 4.93 stars, earning them a spectacular Rating Score™ of 97.31 and two 2019 Top Rated Local awards — one for ranking among the top 100 businesses in Alabama and one for ranking among the top 10 orthodontists in Alabama!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“I love the results that I got from my braces. Everyone — and I mean everyone — in the office is amazing. Dr. Talbert handled my entire treatment over the short two years that I had braces. I am amazed at how well my teeth turned out. This orthodontist office is great; I highly recommend them.” – Amber E.

Not Your Average Orthodontist Office

We sat down with Kalleigh Daw, a Treatment Coordinator at Island Orthodontics, to find out what makes them different from other orthodontist offices in Alabama. Here’s what she had to say:

“I think our orthodontists are the best. We have two of them, and they have very similar treatment plans and agree on everything. This makes it incredibly easy and seamless for our patients. Our doctors definitely set us apart, but really we go above and beyond to make sure our patients are comfortable and happy. We show them that we care, and we put them first and treat them like family.”

We also wanted to know why Kaleigh does what she does and she believes Island Orthodontics works to make the world a better place. Here’s her response:

“Braces changed me and my confidence, so I love the opportunity to give that to people on a daily basis. Seeing people in tears after getting their braces off is one of the best feelings, and a big reason why I love coming to work. We try to make our patients not hate their braces, but enjoy them.”

Building Success Through Word of Mouth and Community Involvement

Kaleigh credits Island Orthodontics’ strong online reputation to their commitment to treating people the right way. They also actively post on Facebook, and they have a regular contest that drives engagement with their patients.

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Island Orthodontics has gotten their name out there by doing fundraising for different schools, clubs, charity events, breast cancer awareness and more, and they participate in school career days and community events. However, their biggest source of growth has been word of mouth:

“Because we have some of the best care at the best prices, people often tell their friends and family.”

There are many business owners out there working on growing their business and building their online reputation. Here’s Kaliegh’s expert advice for those business owners:

“Hire a marketing coordinator. She has really helped us engage new clients on Facebook! Also, be sure to get your website up to date.”


Congratulations to the team at Island Orthodontics for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Kaleigh, for taking the time to speak with us!
