What Our Clients Say About Us

    I love Dr. Walker and his entire staffI. t's always a pleasure going to Dr. Walker's office (which says a lot, because I tend to hate the dentist).  Everyone there is great.  It’s a small, cute office, there’s never a wait, they’re efficient and nice and professional.  I don’t have a single bad thing to say! 

    Jennifer L., May 19, 2012

    Best dentist I’ve ever been too.  Staff is very friendly.  I arrived a couple minutes before my appointment time, and they took me immediately.  The hygienist was very thorough and friendly and cleaned my teeth with minimal pain.  I usually hate going to the dentist, and Walker Dental does as much as possible to make it a good experience.

    Gregory J., June 19, 2012
