“I feel that it’s really important for the kids and adults to know that we really care about them and that we’re going to do the very best that we can for them.”
Dr. John Vondrak always knew that he wanted to do something that would help people and make their lives better. Today, he feels that his job is not just to be an exceptional orthodontist at SmileLife Braces but to be the best part of his patients’ day. Here, he works tirelessly to ensure that his patients feel taken care of and genuinely cared for.
At SmileLife, Dr. Vondrak makes sure that all of his patients are comfortable and they know that he really does care about them. Even out of the office, each person who meets Dr. Vondrak knows that they have his full attention. One of his favorite parts about being an orthodontist is helping his patients and ensuring them that he is the one that can help them accomplish their goals. He takes great joy in communicating with his patients so that he can truly understand them to help them reach their goals in the best possible way.
Being devoted to providing exceptional patient care, he strives to truly be the best part of the day for his patients, and once they get their braces off, he wants his patients to not only know but really feel that they have received the best care they can possibly get.
Dr. Vondrak’s greatest offering to each of his patients is love; each day, he shows up and offers each and every patient love. He offers the ability to understand through example that everything starts with loving yourself, your family, your community, and your patients. Making each person who walks into his office feel loved is a joy and honor for Dr. Vondrak.
