Ashburn Orthodontics

I have to say… Dr. Kortam and her staff is the best!!! From day one we always had great and friendly service. Dr. Kortam always very professional, answers questions and helps in any way possible. We were informed ahead of time about what we need to have done for my daughter and how insurance will work. The staff was very knowledgable on services and insurance plans and what’s the best way to go. They have great and affordable plans for the services they provide. We have been going to see Dr. Kortam for almost 3 years and we only had amazing service. My daughter actually was sad when her braces came off since we won’t have to go back as frequently with her retainers. I will recommend Dr. Kortam to everyone in need of orthodontic services.

Dr Kortam is one of the best Orthodontist I’ve ever met. She’s so humble and also she knows how to treat her patients in a professional way. I’ve known dr. Kortam
for many years and she treated me perfectly. She’s so talented and smart beside her high ethical values that made me feel comfortable to deal with her. I’ve gotten an excellent results for my teeth thanks to her treatment plan and I highly recommend her to anyone who looks for a perfect orthodontist.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kortam for a little over two years now and she is the best! She definitely knows what she’s doing and your teeth are proof of that. Great place with a great staff. She is very efficient and kind and always prioritizes the care of her patients. Definitely highly recommend to anyone looking for a great orthodontist!

I have a lengthy review because I just want to express how important it is to have healthy teeth and how lucky we were to finding Dr. Kortam.
I googled online for an orthodontist in the area and reviewed several orthodontist in Ashburn, and one thing that attracted me to Ashburn Orthodontics was the consistency of the reviews. Every patient’s experience and outcome was beyond satisfactory. I decided to take my little brother for a few consultations, just to compare prices– we were on a tight budget. However I’d never pay less for mediocre service. To my pleasant surprise the price was the reflection of their service, expertise, and over all comfort of the patient… the best thing was their payment option. I chose the no-​interest monthly payment. Made it easy for me to start my younger brother right away and not break the bank.
Getting a good deal doesn’t always mean you are getting a good outcome, however when we first met Dr. Kortam– she was unlike many dentist/​doctors I knew. From the very beginning she came over to greet us, made us feel important by not rushing us, answering our questions thoroughly, and of course being honest with us. She didn’t downplay the length of time just to make my brother happy about being done soon, but educated him on the health of his teeth and how important it was for him to be patient through the process and cooperate in getting him a healthy and beautiful smile.
Instantly we felt so comfortable– the staff was awesome. From the receptionist being so friendly and joyful to the assistant Melanie, everyone made us feel part of their little family. My younger brother hates seeing the dentist and has bad gag reflexes, but Melanie was so patient and so kind and took the process slow as to not hurt him or get him to an uncomfortable stage.
We see Dr. Kortam at every appointment, she is there throughout the entire treatment. My brother has been seeing her for almost 18 months now, and every time she gives us an update, answers any questions we have, and leaves us feeling great at the end of each appointment. She knows every patient of hers, their names, their hobbies, and their story and makes everyone feel special. Besides her amazing chair side manner she is also extremely educated in orthodontics and knowledgeable in her field. I recently realized regular dentist will perform orthodontics, however to be an Orthodontist, you go to school for an extra 2 years after graduating dental school.
One of the truly awesome things Ashburn Orthodontics offers is ALWAYS seeing her emergency patients. Dr. Kortam and her staff will always accommodate patients, especially in an emergency situation. Even if she was out of the country and you have an emergency, best believe she has a solution at the end. They have flexible hours, early morning, late evenings, and weekends. One more compliment: the place is always so clean, neat and smells fresh.
My brother’s treatment has been so wonderful and we’ve seen so much improvement that I decided to be a patient as well! I had an overbite, and did not want metal in my mouth as a 28 year old, so she custom planned an Invisalign treatment for me. It is the best option for me, its flexible, easy, and unnoticed by most. Dr. Kortam will always work with you to make sure you are satisfied with every aspect of the treatment process. I’ve seen her go above and beyond for her patients, and at the end of the day she truly enjoys her work and that is a reflection on her patient’s smiles.
I have referred my cousins to Dr. Kortam, and both are waiting to start treatment with her. Because Dr. Kortam wants my cousin to reach his growth spurts she insisted that they wait on any kind of ortho treatment as it would be a waste in the long run because his growth spurt would interject with the treatment. While other orthodontists wanted my cousins to start the day of their consult, Dr. Kortam rest assured that there is no rush and just to wait till it is the appropriate time. She is not there for the profit of her patients, but for their end result and that is their beautiful and healthy smile! I recommend anyone who wants a better, beautiful, healthy smile.

Both of my children are patients at Ashburn Orthodontics. My son has been in braces with Dr. Kortam for nearly 2 years and my daughter has been being monitored until she is ready for braces. Dr. Kortam hasn’t pressured or pushed us to put her into braces until we are all in agreement that she is ready. Dr. Kortam always explains where we are with our son and what he needs to work on. The office is always clean and the staff is friendly and always greets you with a smile! They always have games and contests and try to make you feel connected and appreciated. I highly recommend Ashburn Orthodontics to anyone looking for an orthodontist in this area, hands down!

This is the best orthodontist and everyone is amazing. Dr. Kortam is a professional, no pressure, perfectionist, and is on call ²⁴⁄₇. I have had wires break because I ate something I wasn’t suppose to, I send an email and the dr answers rite away. She is willing to meet at the office to fix the problem. I have been a patient here for 2 years and will miss the doctor and all the staff when the braces come off. My daughter is next. Ashburn staff you are awesome.

Dr. Kortam shaved off part of my tooth without my consent. The action was entirely unrelated to the purpose of my visit and I cannot comprehend how it could be accidental. There is significant pain two days later stemming from this arbitrary action.
After conceding that the service for which I had paid would not be provided, the receptionist left me a voicemail asking whether I would like a refund instead. I called back to confirm my interest only to be cussed out and denied either a refund or the service for which I had paid in advance.
I have never reviewed a medical practice on Unilocal before, but the exception is warranted in this case. Please be careful with whom you trust the health and safety of your children.

The absolute best orthodontist ever. I am very skeptical and basically scared of the dentist and my experience here has been fantastic. The doctor is so attentive, supportive and a perfectionist. Both my children are in standard braces, which has been a breeze.
In addition, I am using the Invisalign product. I have gone from a really bad underbite to a beautiful smile in just a year and a half.
I am so thankful to have found Dr Kortam.
