Best Doctors & Health Care Pros in Grand Rapids – 2026

We all love talking about the fun things to do in Grand Rapids with kids: best beaches, fun museums, fave schools.

But publicly asking your Instagram posse for a recommendation for a counselor for your kid with mental health issues? Or finding an OB/GYN to talk to about about experiencing pain during intercourse?

Yeah… maybe that’s not something for the Reddit crew.

It’s really nice to get intel from people who know when looking for providers for your family. And we’ve done the work for you. Without you having to publicize anything.

We polled people across West Michigan to find the area’s best dentists, eye doctors, therapists and more.

Now that the results are in, you can use this guide to find your new favorite healthcare provider!

About Voting for the Best Doctors

We asked our readers to nominate, then vote on the best Grand Rapids doctors in West Michigan in several categories.

We then invite the top 10 providers to advertise in this guide. We did this so you can trust that every listing showcases one of the best local family care providers based on GRKIDS’ reader votes.

6 thoughts on “2026 Best Doctors in Grand Rapids: Where to Find Top 10 Dentists, Pediatricians, OBGYNs + More”

  1. Ashley Krommendyk

    Would love a category for urgent/emergent care.
    RightCare Clinic open in July of 24’ and is an incredible spot for our kiddos! A much less stressful environment than your typical ER or UC and seen by the same emergency medicine physicians you’d see at Devos!

  2. Knapp Orthodontics is hands down the absolute best! I have never come across a more friendly, kind, and truly caring staff who take the time to really get to know their patients. My daughter got her braces and my son will soon be getting braces put on, and we are looking forward to the continued partnership and relationship! Thank you Dr.Knapp and staff

  3. Proud to say Megan is now working at The Center for Childhood Development. She is a phenomenal therapist!!!

  4. This is an awesome list and resource and there are definitely some wonderful clinicians and therapists on here. Next time you publish this list I would also love to include a category for physical therapists.
