Dr. Walden & all of his staff were so kind, caring, & gentle on my teeth. I couldn't have asked for a better place to go for my dental emergency. Thank you for treating me with such kindness & getting me in for an appointment so quickly!

In my personal opinion, this place has been going downhill for a long time now... I've put up with about as much as I can handle from the staff here. I've been going here for years, but no more after today. Definitely looking for a new facility. Never again will I restrict myself from solely going here for convince. I just think there is a lack of professional standards in this group. Have a good day. I won't be coming back.

Dr. Walden has been my dentist for around 15 years. The staff is caring and the office is efficient. I trust him with my oral health care and have always had positive experiences.

Horrible experience! I had a filling fall out and paid to have him put a new one in. He was extremely rough and my jaw hurt for days. Regardless I was happy he helped. But then the filling kept hurting. He said that happens. Month later and I called to have him look at it again and possibly redo it because I'm in extreme pain. Now he says I need a $759 root canal without even an office visit to look at it! Be warned!!
