Dr. Runde is originally from Fishers, Indiana, where she was born and raised. She graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Indiana University with high distinction and majored in human biology. With a love of the arts, including ceramics and painting, and an interest in the medical field, she realized that dentistry is the perfect mix of her passions.

After graduating, she started a new chapter in Charleston, South Carolina to pursue her dental education. She immediately matriculated into dental school at the Medical University of South Carolina and graduated in 2020.

Dr. Runde is passionate about understanding the specific circumstances that shape each patient’s experience in the dental chair and providing care in the most relaxed way possible.

Robert L. Walker, DMD, was born and raised in Idaho, where he grew up fishing, hunting, and boating.

At Loveland Dental Group, with its six locations in Concord, Winston-Salem, High Point, Cornelius, Deep River and Mooresville, North Carolina, Dr. Walker regularly helps patients achieve their ideal smiles with individualized treatment plans.

Dr. Walker attended Idaho State University in Pocatello, Idaho, and was later accepted into the Oregon Health Sciences School of Dentistry in Portland, Oregon. Before attending dental school, Dr. Walker married his high school sweetheart with whom he has five children and 10 grandchildren.

After dental school, Dr. Walker served in the U.S. Navy as a dentist, where he was stationed in San Diego, California, for much of that time. After his service in the military, both he and his wife wished to return to their roots in Idaho. Dr. Walker ran a successful practice in Rexburg, Idaho, for over 35 years. When his daughter, Jennifer Loveland, DMD, graduated from dental school, they wanted to practice dentistry together. They made the trek to the south and have loved the Carolinas with its rich culture and beautiful scenery.

His patients have come to appreciate his compassion coupled with his broad range of experience in dentistry. He has always loved performing a variety of procedures, including wisdom teeth extraction, root canals, cosmetic treatments, and orthodontics. No matter what the procedure is, his disarming sense of humor and calming demeanor helps put patients at ease.
