Both Dr. Walker and staff were professional . They listen to what my concerns are about the surgery I have requested to have and answered all my questions without acting like robots going through the motions. Dr.Walker sat and explained the procedure in detail. He took the time , didn't act like I am just another person to get in and out as fast as he could.

Dr. Walker took the time to listen to my concerns and to have a frank conversation with me about my best options before and after surgery. I really liked him! He didn't treat as an old lady (which I am -87 yrs) but as an understanding Contemporary.

Dr Walker was very informative, patient, kind & I learned more about my condition than what the other surgeons had to say. Me & my daughter really liked him!

Hi. yes, I'm generally happy with my experience. I'm still not able to schedule the follow- up diagnostic exams that Dr. Walker wanted. I left a message. Still haven't received a call back. I'm still waiting on that, and I will look forward to scheduling these diagnostic studies. Thank you.

Dr. Walker was very thorough with his explanation about what to expect with my upcoming surgery. He answered my questions in my head before I had a chance to ask them which was great. It shows that he's actually listening and in tuned with his patients. His MA is very friendly as well.
