Dr. Kody Krause was born and raised in the small town of Fillmore, Utah. After finishing his undergraduate studies in Utah, he attended the University of Southern California School of Dentistry and earned his DDS degree. His best memories from dental school come from his time volunteering with AYUDA International, a service organization that provides free dental care to children locally and internationally. As recognition for his academic and clinical achievements, Dr. Krause was inducted into the OKU National Dental Honor Society upon completion of his dental education. In 2009 he joined a practice in Loveland, Colorado, where he practiced until 2019.
Dr. Walker and Dr. Krause were introduced by a mutual friend in 2018. They quickly realized that they share the same passion for delivering excellent, efficient, and comfortable care to their patients. He joined Walker Dental Team in December 2019 and partnered with Dr. Walker to form Walker & Krause Dental Team at the beginning of 2021. Dr. Krause has enjoyed meeting and providing excellent care to all of our current and new patients.
Dr. Krause and his wife Julie recently celebrated their 21st anniversary, and they are the proud parents of Milo, Kyle, and Bryan. The entire family loves exploring their new home in the Pacific Northwest. Dr. Krause enjoys any outdoor activity, especially hiking and skiing, and he recently has taken up golf. When he and his family have a chance to get away, they love to travel.
As a member of the American Dental Association, Washington State Dental Association, and the Thurston-Mason Counties Dental Society, Dr. Krause stays involved and active in our dental community. He participates in many continuing education courses where he learns the latest techniques to better serve our patients, and he actively takes part in a local study club which gives him the opportunity to meet and collaborate with dentists and specialists from the surrounding area.
