Professional and I feel I can already report good results. This morning I walked up a side of stairs foot over foot first time I’ve done that in quite some time.
Kind and takes his time to listen and we came up with a good plan for my knee.
He was very kind and helpful to get my pain under control. Thanks!
I was really scared to get a shot in my hip and he made it seem so easy and painless. Amazing doctor.
Excellent provider. He listens, explains clearly and is very pleasant to work with. Would highly recommend him.
Good work, I think.
Very nice and informative
Dr. Walker immediately diagnosed my issue and treated it accordingly. He informed me of my current options and what I would need to consider in the future. I walked out of the clinic virtually pain free after 6 weeks of not being able to have my normal lifestyle. All the staff was courteous and professional.
Very nice and efficient. Explained things well. Patient.
Excellent!! Highly recommend!
