I am thrilled to be home and look forward to serving my hometown. I grew up in Zeeland and graduated from Zeeland High School in 2005. I attended Grand Valley State University and graduated in 2009 with a B.S. in Biomedical Sciences and went on to complete my dental training at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, graduating in 2013. Upon graduation, I served as a Captain in the U.S. Army Dental Corps at Fort Lee, VA from 2013-2016 and at Fort Riley, KS from 2016-2017. Upon leaving Active Duty, Michelle (my wife) and I, and children Braden and Derek moved back home to Zeeland and added Natalie to our family. I practiced in Grandville for about a year and a half before purchasing the office of Dr. John Frieswyk upon his retirement in September 2018.
My primary goals for you and your family are your comfort, good health and giving you the best dental care I can provide. As I get to know you as an individual, please share any questions, concerns or special needs that you may have - no matter how big or small! I practice conservatively and won 't push treatment you don 't want or need. As many offices choose to go 'corporate' and treat you like a number, I will always be a traditional style dentist who gets to know my patients and spends the time to educate you about your oral health. I 'd enjoy seeing the entire family and would welcome your children to become regular patients if they are being seen at a pediatric dentist. I look forward to earning your trust in the months and years ahead and meeting you at your next visit!

I needed a dentist that took my son's insurance because it's different than mine and I think I'm switching to Walters Family Dentistry too. He's had the same tech every time and she treats him like she knows him, talks to him about his teeth in a way he understands. Dr. Walters is the same way. The office staff are fun and friendly. :)

Walters Family Dentistry treats you like family every time. I keep going back because I like how Dr. Walters and his staff explain what exactly they're doing and they're very patient when answering questions.They also have the most up-to-date equipment, so that's reassuring. Everything about going to the dentist office is great. I have no complaints and I recommend him to everybody!

The staff is very helpful and professional. Dr. Walters is knowledgeable and professional, as well as friendly and personable. I have moved further away from this practice, but will not consider changing dentists.

I had somewhat of an emergency situation. I was was able to get an appointment very quickly as a new patient. Dr Walters took the time to explain the procedure and made sure I was comfortable.

Love this office! I had a cap/filling that was put on my front tooth when I was a teenager for cosmetic reasons. It's fallen off throughout the years and never seemed to match my tooth perfectly. Dr. Walters did an excellent job putting a new one on and it matched perfectly! It was my first time having him do this for me. I also take my kids to his office. Dr. Walters and his staff are excellent with them! They explain everything thoroughly and make it fun. (My kids are 6 and 4 for reference) I definitely recommend this office to friends and family!
