This was a second opinion consult and we signed up immediately." - [Kim Wasserberg](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/kim-wasserberg/) - "Our initial appointment with Monica and Dr. Frey was so informative. Monica took time to answer all of our questions and guide us through the decision of what type of treatment would be best for my son and how the financial part is broken down. Dr. Frey helped ease my sons concerns and again he - [Ashley Davis](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/ashley-davis/) - "Love that Hatcher and Frey are in the heart of the Oceanfront. Their office is convenient, inviting, and has all the positive vibes. The staff is very friendly and Dr. Frey was patient and kind! I wouldn't go anywhere else especially if you have kiddos." - [Kara Larson](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/kara-larson/) - "A great experience for kids and parents! My 9-year-old just finished 15 months of Invisalign treatment for a cross bite. We were quoted a higher price and longer treatment for an expander at another local orthodontist. So I was pleasantly surprised at the Invisalign option with a lower cost and the bonus of virtual appointments! - [Natalie Schneider](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/natalie-schneider/) - "With exceptional attention to detail and an understanding of how to bring out your best smile, Hatcher & Frey Orthodontics in Norfolk has been instrumental in my Invisalign journey.

I highly recommend them." - [Eleanor Garver](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/eleanor-garver/) - "We love Dr. Hatcher and Dr. Frey! They are super thorough when you go in for an evaluation, and give you pricing up front. I visited a different local orthodontist, who wouldn’t give a price until after we started... they are detailed in the plan and the outcome is terrific! It is a wonderful practice - [Jacob Andresen](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/jacob-andresen/) - "I can't tell you how astonished I was with the customer service, everyone here is affectionate, and kind.

State of - [Marie Sawtelle](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/marie-sawtelle/) - "Dr. Scott Frey is an amazing Orthodontist and very caring. The most important thing which many people don't understand is it's not just straightening your teeth but knowing your bite is right for the lifetime of functioning. It's well worth the investment and time to do it right, so it won't cost you even more - [Jennifer Rose Riner](http://smile-365.com/client_reviews/jennifer-rose-riner/) - "What a great experience!
