Great dentist and staff. Very helpful on all points of contact. Asked him to buff out double temporary crowns, no problems! Answered all my questions. Excellent bedside manner. Had a surgical dentist on staff who performed procedure the same day. Very grateful for their excellent care. Only comment is to talk through procedure as is happening. Very happy . Best experience with a dentist!

I highly recommend Dr. Khalfani Walker, DMD located in Wheaton, MD for Dental Care. You will be greeted with warm welcomes when arriving at the office along with professional, friendly, Doctors, Staff, and a warm atmosphere. The Dental Staff there are always very helpful, pleasant and keeps the patients informed of any current or future procedures, treatments, diagnosis, and dental care benefit information. The office and fairly new and the dental equipment are high quality and up to date. I highly recommend Zocdoc to all individuals and Families.

Dr. Walker and Elite Dental are a blessing to residents of the Wheaton area and surrounding suburbs. I'd even travel from across town to visit Elite Dental. Great bedside manner from the receptionist to the doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Walker and Elite Dental to everyone with a mouth.
October 12, 2018Stephen G.Verified patient
I am a very anxious dental patient. I also grind my teeth a lot, which means that sometimes we have to redo or adjust dental repairs like crowns or cracked fillings, etc.
Everyone at Elite Dental is very reassuring and helpful. I feel taken care of here because they do a great job of explaining everything and working with you to ensure your comfort and the success of the work.
October 5, 2018Charissa F.Verified patient
Dr. Walker is the best dentist I've ever had. Both he and his entire office are so wonderful and I always leave the office feeling better than when I walked in. If all offices were like this, maybe people wouldn't dread the dentist so much!

My visit today was very detailed and took a lot of time.
Dr. Walker did not rush and made sure that I was comfortable throughout the entire procedure. His staff was right there~very kind and professional. What can I say but another FANTASTIC Experience in Dr. Khalfani Walker's office! Thank you, Dr. Walker and thanks to your entire staff!!!!!!
June 27, 2018Grace R.Verified patient
I highly recommend this practice! In fact, I just recommended this practice to someone yesterday. from the reception staff, to the hygienists, to the doctors--everyone is always professional, friendly, well-groomed, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Many staff members are bi-lingual and there is rarely a wait time. As an added bonus, the office decor is stylish, contemporary, yet professional.
June 8, 2018Shelia L.Verified patient
Dr Walker was professional and courteous as always. He politely explain the post up procedure moving forward and the plan leading to the adjustment of my dentures- I will continue recommending him and the staff to all my family members , friends and business associates

February 7, 2018Miatta N.Verified patient
I hadn't been to the dentist and was scared about returning after so long, but everyone at Elite Dental was great and put me at ease. What I really liked about this dentist office was that you can tell that the people working here are really nice, happy, and love their job. It was a great atmosphere, which I never really considered as a criteria for choosing a dentist before now.
More than 1 year agoPamela V.Verified patient
Dr. Walker is great! He filled three fillings and no pain! Yeah! I was in and out of the office within an hour. Great Job Dr. Walker!
More than 1 year agoGail P.Verified patient
I am a patient at the Wheaton, MD location and will remain there. Dr. Walker engages his patients while in the chair and, in an attempt to ease any anxiety he explains what to expect in plain language. An added bonus is that the hygienists and office staff are all very knowledgeable in their respective fields. I have always had a pleasant experience.

December 4, 2017Aracelis N.Verified patient
Very professional and courteous. My daughter referred me and i was very pleased with the service. Kudos Dr. Walker i will be back to see him again
December 4, 2017Errol C.Verified patient
I went to Elite Dental by recommendation. Dr. Walker was very professional, but yet created a comfort. The office is very welcoming from the front desk to the dental chair. While the office has modern and beautiful decor, it is the attention and expertise provided that makes Elite Dental a definite choice. To note, I don't normally do reviews, however, Dr. Walker knew exactly what my dental issue was before I even explained. So, I am sharing my experience with Elite Dental to all who are indecisive. You will not be disappointed.
