Greg Ortman, DDS

I decided to write a review because I have been reading nasty reviews (probably deserved) of other dental offices in town, and I thought it might be nice to write a good review for a dental practice that definitely deserves it.
I have been going to Dr Ortman since I moved to Lafayette in 2008 (I’m writing this in 2015). His staff has always been knowledgeable and friendly, and the dental hygienists are very good at what they do. Getting my teeth cleaned is not my favorite way to spend an hour, but they make it as pleasant as possible. The last hygienist I saw was Kirsten, and she was friendly, gentle, and even made me laugh a few times. There is a new dentist there, Nathan Webster, and not only is he a good dentist and explained everything clearly to me, but he’s also easy on the eyes. Mmmm hmmm.
Anyway, since my insurance is through Purdue (for grad students) and it’s total crap, I had to pay out of pocket, about $ 245 for x-​rays, exam, and cleaning. While that’s not cheap for me at all, it’s still better than going to the two places that are covered under my insurance, both of which magically see cavities that you don’t have and run exorbitant, unnecessary treatments such as «deep cleaning» and «mouth cancer screen».
Oh, and if you’re from Dr. Ortman’s practice and you’re reading this: please update your website and add some pics of your new dentist. Thx.

Dr Ortman is very friendly and his staff is all very nice. They are sweet girls that do a very professional job and remember me when I come in. Good guy to go to if you are new in town or just need a new dentist.
