I wish I could be a patient! Both my little come here, they have all the tools and technicians to serve little mouths. There’s a crawl area for them to get the wiggles out, too. Dr. Walsh is so kind and patient, and you can feel that in the staff. They have a dental plan for the kids, actually cheaper than putting them on my own insurance! They checked baby’s teeth as curtesy and helped guide me about removing her pacifier- which only took two days to do. Love this place and the staff. 💖

Dr. Walsh and her staff are always so pleasant, friendly, informative, and will go the extra mile if need be. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a pediatric dentist. My 3 daughters love her!

Dr. Walsh and her staff have helped my daughter overcome her fear of dentists despite having six teeth pulled. The welcoming environment as well as their pediatric expertise are second to none and I highly recommend Polar Bear Dental Care for any parents struggling to get their kids to care about their teeth :)

We love Dr. Walsh. She makes taking our children to the dentist very easy and comfortable. When she moved to her own office, we made sure to follow her. Her new office is family friendly and I love that my husband, both my kids, and myself can all be in the same room. If you are looking for a dentist that will help your child feel secure and take away any fear they have, Dr. Walsh and her amazing staff are the place to go.

Dr. Walsh is a wonderful pediatric dentist. My kids have been going to her for many years and we are excited about her new office on Huffman. Her care has always been exemplary and she takes the time to get to know each of her patients. My kids love her! The staff at this office is also fantastic - they are warm, efficient, and go the extra mile to make sure families' needs are met. We highly recommend Dr. Walsh - she is simply the best.

I was anxious to take my 1.5 year old son in for his first dental visit. I was put to ease by meeting the staff and Dr. Walsh. They were all so kind and took time to explain how I can help my son with his dental hygiene. He got a rubber ducky and a token for the toy dispenser and left as one happy kid.

Dr. Walsh has been a pleasure to have as my child's dentist! She speaks directly to the child very kindly and helps them feel as comfortable as possible. I've had a few pediatric dentists for my other children over the years and Dr. Walsh has been my favorite.

Dr.Walsh and her staff are great. My youngest had some dental complications from delayed maintenance, I blame covid! Our dentist had to refer us to Dr.Walsh because my little one didn’t handle the work easily and needed to use anesthesia . Dr.Walsh was very understanding, quick to help us get the issue resolved, and has great bed side manor for kids. She followed up and gave us lots of education on preventing issues in the future.

Dr. Walsh is amazing to say the least. My four year old is not a fan of the dentist, let alone getting work done but Dr. Walsh and her assistant Selena was able to remove a problem tooth with NO PROBLEM, NO TEARS and she wants to go back! I truly recommend this office for children!
