I am so grateful that I found North Coast Orthodontics. Dr Chan and Dr Schabel are very knowledgeable and honest, which is why I trust my kids’ teeth with them. My kids’ love seeing Dr Chan... who is always patient and welcomes them with a big smile. I am especially impressed with how she explains every step to myself and my kids and also with how meticulous she is in making sure they have the best plan in place.read more

I had an amazing experience with North Coast Orthodontics. Dr. Schabel's excellent communication skills made all the difference in my treatment. He took the time to explain every step of... the process, ensuring I understood what we were doing and why. The entire team is extremely skilled, friendly, and their professional communication and follow-through made the experience seamless.What truly sets the group apart is how much they stand by their work. Even after my treatment was officially completed, they saw me for minor adjustments and answered all my questions with the same level of care and communication as on day one. That kind of dedication is rare and truly appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Schabel to anyone looking for an outstanding orthodontist.read more

North Coast office in Scott’s Valley is absolutely gorgeous. It doesn’t just stop with the office aesthetics, the staff is equally as gorgeous, professional and super welcoming. My 4yr old... Grandson and I were immediately at ease. Greeted with friendly smiles and taken on a tour. I was asked if I needed anything or had any questions before being escorted to my chair in the clinic area. Everything was explained thoroughly throughout treatment by the assistant Jade. She is amazing in her explanations and her technique as she worked gently and quickly. I must admit I was nervous before coming in and even questioning if I made the right decision in starting this journey. All my fears have been put to rest. I am excited to tears and so happy I chose North Coast orthodontics to take this journey with. Thank you Jade, Doctor Schabel . Also I’m incredibly grateful for the entire staff who entertained my grandson throughout the treatment. Melanie at the front desk handled finances and gave me clear information and explained all my options. My Grandson even go t to meet Dr Schabel . I know he will also have great memories here. So if ever in the future he should need some help with his teeth. We will be forever customers! Highly recommended!!read more

I’ve been a patient at North Coast Orthodontics since 2017, and I can honestly say that the team is the best around. I initially came in for some major dental work, and Dr. Schabel always... went above and beyond to make the process as seamless as possible. Now, I’m back again for Invisalign, and I’m equally impressed with Dr. Chan and the entire staff. They’re incredibly attentive, not only to my dental needs but also to ensuring I feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. I truly appreciate the care and dedication of both Dr. Schabel, Dr. Chan, and their amazing staff. I couldn’t be more thankful for the outstanding service and the results they’ve helped me achieve!read more

North Coast is the best of the best. Dr. Schabel and Dr. Chan are very friendly and professional. They know what they’re doing! I had braces with a different orthodontist and the results... weren’t good. I went to North Coast for help and their work transformed my smile. My teeth are perfectly straight and they did an incredible job with my 2 sons also. We are now a family of beautiful smiles. Thank you!read more

Fantastic staff who are caring and thoughtful. Played out options and let the patient be the decision maker. Such a good experience and a wonderful outcome.
Louise P.
We chose North Coast for our child's orthodontic treatment after being impressed with the demeanor, experience, and education of husband-wife team Drs. Schnabel and Chan, and we weren't... disappointed. They were able to correct his bite well in less time than they originally predicted, even with some extra revisions at the end, and kept him comfortable the whole way. Their entire staff is thoughtful and competent, too. I'd definitely go back if anyone if my family needs ortho again!read more
