All of the staff and doctors at Sherman & Balhoff are fantastic. They spend time getting to know their patients and do fantastic orthodontic work! We have been pleased for all of our girls to use them. My husband even had his orthodontic work done here many years ago!
Dykeashua M.
From the moment we stepped inside, we were met with smiles and helpful hands. It was our first visit, and they made us feel right at home. Sarah was wonderful when we were dealing with the paperwork and X-Rays. She took her time explaining everything, making sure we understood each step. She kept us informed about what was coming next and was incredibly patient throughout. The whole office was such a great experience!

Kegelle S.
I went for my consultation on Wednesday to the prairieville location. I was very satisfied on the professionalism shown to me by staff. Although I live in Baker, La I work closer to the prairieville location which is why I chose them. I was informed for my future visits I’d can go to other location but I’d rather continue to go to prairieville regardless.
You chose them you won’t be disappointed, I wasn’t.
Looking forward to next visits.
Response from the owner:We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback on your experience. We work very hard every day to exceed our patients’ expectations!
Erica D.
The entire staff is so caring at Sherman & Balhoff. Three of our children have been in treatment there. Their smiles are amazing from their treatment with Dr. Balhoff.

At our most recent visit, I received an important medical call regarding one of my children. The phone conversation made me a little teary-eyed, but Cassie was so kind after I got off the phone. She sincerely wished us luck with our medical issue, and I could see her earnest compassion.

A week after that visit, I received a beautiful surprise flower bouquet at my door. The card read, "Our prayers are with you and your daughter. Sending a little brightness and lots of love."-Sherman & Balhoff Orthodontics

Thank you Cassie, Dr. Balhoff, and everyone at Sherman & Balhoff! Beautiful smiles and so much more!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your heartfelt review, Erica. We're thrilled to hear about your positive experiences with our team. Your family's smiles are our priority, and we appreciate your trust in us during challenging times.
Ashley L.
My daughter passed out and knocked her front tooth out. The day after we were able to get an appointment here and they were absolutely AMAZING!! I was in tears When we left because they took such good care of us after a traumatic event the night before. 10000/10 recommend!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words, Ashley. We're glad we could support you and your daughter during such a challenging time. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We're here for you whenever you need us!
H N.
Our youngest got her braces this morning and we had a wonderful experience at Sherman & Balhoff Orthodontics. Alexis and Dr. Sherman were incredibly attentive, patient, and kind. They explained every step clearly, which really helped. She felt comfortable and well cared for the entire visit. She was actually here back in 2018 with her older brother and now she’s a patient in the chair herself. Alexis also gave us a care bag and took the time to show us how to use everything, which we really appreciated. We truly appreciate the professionalism and great communication from the whole team. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that your youngest had a positive experience with us. Our team strives to provide attentive care and clear communication. We appreciate your recommendation!

I brought my daughter here for a consult for braces; he definitely earned our trust as a patient. He’s trustworthy, caring, and a man of God. He shows so much compassion, even for my son, who wasn’t there to see him. I am very pleased and definitely recommend this orthodontist.May God continue to bless your business! Dr.Balhoff thank you!
