Walnut Woods Dental is an outstanding office with fantastic doctors and staff! As a longtime patient, I have always appreciated their exceptional care. Recently, I experienced a tooth fracture, not entirely unexpected, but definitShow moreely inconvenient timing. They were able to see me the same day I called, and after assessing the situation, scheduled my extraction for the next day. Knowing I had a job interview the next day, I expressed concerns about having a visible gap from my missing lower front tooth. The team went above and beyond, crafting an Essix Retainer on-site to seamlessly conceal the missing tooth. Everything went smoothly, and the retainer makes the gap virtually invisible! I can't thank the entire staff at Walnut Woods Dental enough for their prompt, compassionate, and expert care. They turned a stressful situation into a manageable one with their efficiency and kindness!
My old dentist retired and Dr Kim took over her practice. I am a nervous dental patient, so this change was a bit frightening for me however I have been so impressed with Dr Kim.

Best Hygentist in the business! Amazing Dentists.
Ann cleaned my teeth. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. She understands my fear of being in the dental chair and is gentle and understanding.
A great experience. Ann Ennis is a fantastic RDH - Teeth look great. Dr. Ashley Kim was thorough in her exam after the cleaning. They do not accept my insurance, that is a drawback, but I will continue under their care.
They are very professional and friendly.
Gave me a better understanding of a chronic condition of one of my teeth.
Great job
I’ve seen Dr. Ashely Kim for 2 years and it has been an amazing experience. Her staff, the host and of course herself has been perfect. I’ve had several different levels of work from general cleaning, to crown installation, composite fillings removed and replaced and teeth whitening products acquired from her worked flawlessly. Thanks Dr.
Very friendly team
No hype no hurry no pressure no pain

Dr. Kim's office is welcoming and professional. Definitely recommend.
I love the office staff. Very welcoming group. Dr. Kim is sweet and personable. She physically (not just tell me) showed me where potential area of concern was and will monitor. The hygienist is also friendly and personable. She tells you more specifically where you can improve brushing, flossing, not just “in the back”
Dr. Kim and her staff are the best. Everyone is friendly and pleasant. They work as a team to put you at ease, providing great care.
I showed up a day early for my appointment. I was full prepared to go home and return the next day. A different hygienist was available so they offered my option to see her or wait for my usual hygienist. I chose to have my teeth cleaned a day early. Dr. Kim saw me after and everything went smoothly. These are new dentists but same hygienists. I am very happy with the new owners of this practice.
Highly professional, knowledgeable, hospitable, and respectful practice. I was impressed with the esprit de corps of the team and modern dental technology/acumen as well.
Excellent!
Fast, friendly and fantastic!
Donna is my hygienist. Always a smile on her face and we have great conversations while she cleans my teeth. She’s the best. Dr Joon Kim checked my teeth and last X-rays and I will be back in August. Both Dr Kim and Dr Joon are very friendly and are excellent dentists. I’m very happy. I’ve been coming to this dental office for over 40 years and loved Dr Shannon Haynes. She picked great dentists to succeed her.
Staff always be eye gentle with me and consider my phobia of dentist appointments. I travel quite a distance just to come to Walnut Woods because they take such great care of me.
Dr Kim and her staff were timely and friendly and professional. Dr Kim’s exam was thorough and gentle. And she even remembered personal details about me and asked about them- that was really nice! The dental hygienist was excellent too! The appointment and confirmation reminders by text are convenient! I feel that I am in good hands with Dr Kim and her staff.
I have been coming to this practice since I was 3. I was a patient of Dr Haynes since 1987, and now Dr. Kim. I love all the staff like family and would highly recommend this practice.
Thank you for taking me in as a rush with my chip tooth. Could not be more happy and satisfied with your practice
Excellent hygienist, Anne! Dr. Kim is friendly and competent.
New owners are extremely professional!
Excellent !
