Testimonials

Read what our client says about us!

    Dr. Dan Grode went above and beyond and I could not be more grateful! Thank you!

    Dr. Dan was a very nice dentist who took the time and went over all my issues I had. He was also very gentle with my mouth. Also, Very nice and personable to me and my little kids!

    I highly recommend Beckwith Family Dental Care to anyone looking for a dentist in the GR area.  The entire staff is very friendly and helpful.  

    The dentists at this office are great and the staff is very helpful! I wouldn't trust my teeth with anyone else.

    I can't recommend this place enough! After visiting a few other dentists in the Grand Rapids area, I decided to give Beckwith a try and I'm glad I did. I had to have quite an extensive repair done to a problem tooth and this place did such an amazing job! They are incredibly thorough in the procedure itself, and explaining to their patients what they are doing and why and are up front about costs, payment plans, treatment options and planning, etc. Special shout out to Dr. Dan Grode, who went as far as to call me later that day and check up on me to make sure I was doing alright. If you need some work done, or just want an awesome dentist for those check ups and cleanings, try this place, you won't be upset!

    A great, friendly practice.  I've been a patient for 15 years and they've always done a good job for me and the family.  I would recommend for anyone looking for a good family dentist.
