An Open Letter to Our Patients, Staff, Referring Doctors, and Spouses:
To say that 2019 was an exciting and eventful year for our office is really an understatement. This year has been full of new landmarks for our team, and it is fitting for us to pause to say thank you to all of you who have supported and encouraged us to continue to grow and improve.
Here is a snapshot of some of the things that happened in 2019 at Hartsock and Sword Orthodontics:
- Dr. Sword became a partner in ownership and our name changed from "Hartsock Orthodontics" to "Hartsock and Sword Orthodontics".
- We became the first Invisalign provider in East Kentucky to achieve Diamond-Level status, which means that we are now in the Top 1% of all Invisalign providers in the world.
- We opened a new satellite office in Paintsville, Kentucky and have begun to serve more patients from Johnson County and surrounding areas.
- We hired two new wonderful staff members, Chelsea and Madison, and they have been an amazing addition to our family.
- Dr. Hartsock continued lecturing around the United States to educate other orthodontic specialists and train them on all the latest and greatest Invisalign technology.
What a year it has been!
