About Quimby & Collins
The Quimby and Collins standard of excellence is both patient and academically driven. We believe in building lasting relationships with our patients and their families while continually educating ourselves and staff on the latest in treatment technology. We offer advancements like SureSmile®, frictionless brackets and the latest in 3-D diagnostic imaging (i-CAT). It is our goal to provide our patients with a superior orthodontic experience and a truly incredible smile.
Dr. Meredith Quimby and Dr. Kelly Collins met at The Ohio State University Orthodontic Program. Their friendship grew out of their shared passion for academic and athletic excellence. Their vision for a family-friendly practice encompassing the values they learned on the playing field and in the classroom began on the Scarlet and Grey golf course, where they would occasionally play golf together. (Sometimes even letting their spouses join in!) In 2002, their desire to leave Ohio’s cold winters behind led them to the charm of Charlotte where they have been enjoying their patients, practice and warmer weather ever since.
A key component of Dr. Quimby and Dr. Collins’ partnership is their ability to share orthodontic ideas and design treatment plans together. This collaboration benefits Quimby and Collins patients as the doctors continue to challenge one another with new ideas, perspectives and approaches, resulting in optimal orthodontic results.
At OSU, the doctors received additional training in the treatment of Cleft Lip/Palate and Craniofacial Syndromes. They utilize this training to volunteer their time at CMC with a medical team designing and discussing treatment for patients. Dr. Quimby and Dr. Collins are active in their community and believe in sponsoring patients’ scholastic and athletic endeavors. They support Carolinas Center for Cleft Lip & Palate Surgery, Smiles Change Lives, Mel’s Diner, March of Dimes, Run for the Ridge, Holy Trinity’s Bulldog 5K run, and much more. Additionally, the doctors and their staff educate Charlotte area children through school programs during National Children’s Dental Health Month.
Drs. Quimby and Collins are Diplomats of the Board of Orthodontics. They attend continuing education seminars year round and are members of the American Association of Orthodontists, the North Carolina Dental Society, the American Dental Association, the Charlotte Dental Society, the American Cleft Lip and Palate Association, and the Spear Study Club.
