Fantastic experience: Great place with a great atmosphere and friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Great owners, great staff, and great quality of care. Every time I come across anyone needing work done, I send them to Cornerstone.
Thank you for the review Esperanza! There is no greater complement to our office than your referrals. We appreciate your kindness!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson, his wife Jessica, and all the staff from the very first day until just recently finishing with my treatment were and have been the kindest group of people. Very professional (but can tell they have a fun working environment), always on time, always have fun giveaways, and send out great reminders. Not to mention the small town feeling rather you are staff or a patient but that everyone is family. I highly recommend this group to anyone looking for Orthodontic care, with locations in Hays, Great Bend, and Colby.
We are so grateful for your review! It has been a joy having you as a patient from day one. We’re glad you enjoyed our giveaways and office culture—we certainly try to have a lot of fun together! We will miss seeing you every month, but are so glad you love your smile!

Fantastic experience: We’ve been with Cornerstone since 2016, starting with our two boys and just wrapped up in 2025 with our daughter—and we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. Over the years, the team has consistently gone above and beyond, not only providing excellent orthodontic care but also taking the time to get to know each of our children as individuals. The staff is warm, professional, and genuinely invested in their patients. It’s rare to find a place that makes such a lasting impact—we truly felt like part of the Cornerstone family. Highly recommend!

Thank you Amy!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff, they asked my son how he was feeling knowing that his smile is about to change getting braces. He replied with, happy yet nervous. They walked him through every step so that there was no hidden surprises. That really claimed his nerves. The staff is very patient and kind. They made sure he was doing good the whole way through. He had a great experience. I would recommend this place to my family and friends.
Thanks for the detailed review Ashley, this helps out our future patients so much! Hopefully his nerves fade more and more each time we see him! Please let us know if he has questions between now and when we see him next!

Fantastic experience: First experience with getting braces put on. They were very thorough and checked in with me frequently during the procedure. Brecklyn, the assistant, did a fantastic job of putting the wires and bands on as well as answering my questions and giving information. Overall wonderful experience!
Thank you for the detailed review Randa. We hope you are adjusting well to your braces! We look forward to seeing you in early March!
Fantastic experience: Works really well around difficult schedules!! Care about their patients as well.
Thank you for the review Emily!
Fantastic experience: Cornerstone Orthodontics is a great place! We chose this office over others in our town because of all the recommendations from our friends. They offered before and after school appointments, plus they’re open every day and make it easy to call if we had any emergencies. My child’s treatment ended up taking 6 months less than we originally planned for. The payment plans were easy to set up. The waiting room was very comfortable for me and younger siblings while we waited. My teen loved the reward for brushing every day and wearing the rubber bands.
Fantastic experience: At Cornerstone they are so so friendly! Very nice place to choose!!
Thank you Mackenzie! Enjoy Arkansas, see you next month!

Thank you Holly! We have really enjoyed working with everyone in your family!
Fantastic experience: They are incredible, explain every step of the process clearly, and make my son feel comfortable with the treatment. Treatment is still in progress, and we can see he is so happy with the results. His teeth have already started looking amazing, and he can smile with full confidence! I would highly recommend Cornerstone Orthodontics to anyone seeking orthodontic care. They are the best!

Enjoy your new smile Tammi!
Fantastic experience: I had the best experience. Staff was kind, respectful and very knowledgeable. When answering questions or concerns, it was delivered to me in a way that I understood and they took the time to answer my questions. The whole process from scheduling my appointment to my appointment date was an easy process. Ashley and Jessica were amazing. Dr. Johnson was very informative of my options, from what we could do to what he recommended. I never felt pressure or rushed during my appointment. Highly recommend Cornerstone. Thank you all so much Update 11/12/24 Cornerstone Orthodontics I cannot thank you enough. 2 years of me every 4 weeks. I will miss you. Yesterday 11/11/24 was both a happy and sad day. Cornerstone is one of the most amazing places. They have clinics in Colby , Hays, and Great Bend. It would be worth any amount of miles to drive to get this type of care. ❤️ Dr Johnson and his wife Jessica have hired the most incredible employees and the team they have developed go above and beyond. The staff there, they not only love what they do but love who they work for, it showed each and every time I walked through their door. They are the most kind, caring, genuine, GIVING people, not only to their patients, but also the community. If every place could be as remarkable as this place. Pretty sure I’ll be visiting from time to time and they will be like , “I thought we were done with you”. Kidding.. they would welcome me with open arms.
Ok, so this made our day for sure! Thank you so much for the kind review, we are excited to get the process started for you:)

Fantastic experience: The staff here are incredible! Jessica makes sure to go above and beyond and builds relationships with the clients! Very clean and sanitary. Dr. Johnson is also very friendly! When we were first looking at braces for my son, one Dr. wanted to pull his teeth to make room, but Dr. Johnson was able to put braces on and move his teeth to where he didn't have to loose any teeth! Highly recommend Cornerstone Orthodontics!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is always so kind and makes her feel comfortable. My daughter is usually pretty anxious about going to appointments, but not here. The number one thing was that you spoke to her and she felt like she had some choice in her treatment. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: The staff was very gentle and explained every step of the process to my 9 year old son. They also worked on my daughter and were the same way. With 2 locations, it makes appointments easier for us since we don't live in hays.
Thank you for the great review Tisha!
Fantastic experience: When my son's power chain broke the day it was put on, Cornerstone was quick to get him in and fix it. In addition, they gave us a solution in case we weren't able to get him to the office. Customer service is priority in this office!
Those power chains can be tricky sometimes! Glad we were able to accommodate him:)
Fantastic experience: Organized, efficient and we even left with full understanding of what to expect.

Thanks Lacey!
Fantastic experience: My son and I were very happy with Cornerstone Orthodontics. They are all very helpful and friendly. Took their time to explain and go over everything we needed to know about his new journey with braces. Put his mind at ease and settled his nerves by showing us how it is done step by step. I was able to fill my paperwork out online before the appointment and everything was supper easy. I will definitely recommend them to friends and family.
Thank you Samantha for the kind words! We look forward to seeing you both more often!!
Fantastic experience: My 7 year old was a little nervous going in for consultation, but everyone was happy, positive, energetic, and kind, and explained everything very clearly to us both. She loves the playroom, and as we left told me that she likes going to the orthodontist! Update: went in for another consult a year later, and still a fantastic experience!!
We LOVE hearing this, especially with kids that come in and little nervous or shy. This really warms our hearts:) Merry Christmas!

Fantastic experience: I can not say enough about Dr. Johnson and his staff at Cornerstone Orthodontics. They make you feel welcomed the moment you enter the door until you leave. This was my third time getting braces and the first with Dr. Johnson. I was hesitant about getting braces again but so glad I did. I felt confident Dr. Johnson could help and he did not disappoint. He even worked to get them off before my son's wedding and ended up getting them off 4 months ahead of schedule. Thanks, Dr. Johnson and Staff!
Oh Yea!!!! We are so glad your happy, enjoy your son's wedding braces free:)
Fantastic experience: The staff and Dr. Johnson were kind and extremely helpful. The atmosphere of the office is hard to beat. Would definitely recommend.
