Dr.Walker is the best!!! I was terrified when I fell and broke my ankle. Dr.Walker has the best bed side manners and he actually listened to my concerns. I'd recommend him to anyone all day long. Seriously the best!!!

Dr. Walker is great! He is direct and to the point, but he says things in a way that makes you know he cares. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome with my ankle injury.

Dr. Walker is amazing. I felt like I had NOTHING to worry about with him doing my complex surgery!! And I was right. He did a phenomenal job. I highly recommend him. He was highly recommended to me by a very good rheumatologist, and once I found out his years of experience and met him, I was totally at ease.
