Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Life Changer
Dr. Walker has changed my life, I can breath, sleep and have a tremendous sense of smell since my rhinoplasty and septo-plasty. Additionally, a huge impact in my confidence and daily life, I can easily say hands down has changed my life for the better. As far as procedural processes, from handling of care from his staff and team, there is no doubt that the services from this establishment you are receiving are top quality premier, dare I say one of the best. Dr. Walker has a level of expertise that is incomparable to others in the field. His attention to detail, patient care, and ability to achieve exceptional results truly set him apart. From the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-ups, every step was seamless and reassuring. I am beyond grateful for his skill and compassion. If you're considering this procedure, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Walker and his outstanding team.

I went to Dr Walker for a consult to determine efficacy of blepharoplasty among other procedures. After paying him the mandatory $100 fee for the consult, I was in the midst of asking him some amplifying questions when his demeanor suddenly changed and he pronounced that I would not be pleased with whatever was done. Apparently a mind reader as well as MD.

I have been seeing Dr Walker for several years now for skin cancers of the face. Dr Walkers professional care has been what keeps me coming back. As a rancher, i have been exposed to hours and hours of sun, which in return has caused a lot of damage, including skin cancers. Dr Walker has educated me and treated me for these cancers and I am always completely satisfied and relieved from his care and work. His office staff is amazing!

Dr Walker's office seems to keep up with all the latest techniques to help patients keep a youthful appearance. I was very pleased with the 'eye job' he did several years ago. I have since had several filler and Botox treatments, as well as facials, performed by the staff, and have always been pleased. Everyone in the office is very friendly and caring. Always a pleasure being there!
