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.

Responsible for successful and sustainable cardio vascular stenting---he directed me to Dr. Frank Zidar who corrected my arterial blockage in 2016. Dr. Walters is a pretty good podiatrist as well with a pleasant and easy going personality---wish I could say the same about my medical doctors.

Dr. Walters deserves a 10-star rating. After having had a failed ankle surgery and a bone infection, he did another surgery that finally allowed my ankle to completely heal. I have full use of my ankle, no limp and no pain. It did take a year before I was able to walk without a limp. Considering the extent and severity of break, in my opinion, he literally performed a miracle. He takes time to assess and discuss treatment. He explains things in a language that laymen can understand. He never rushes out of the treatment room. He has a friendly personality and a way of making me feel comfortable. I would never hesitate to see him again for any of my podiatric needs. You'll be in the capable hands of an excellent caregiver.

A friend recommended Dr. Walters, I am very pleased I listened to her! I will recommend him to others as well without hesitation. I have appreciated his kindness and patience, thoroughness and expertise throughout the last year in resolving my foot issues. Always positive experiences with entire office staff!

Before I saw the doctor they took X-rays which showed bunion and deformed bone structure. I told the doctor that I had severe pain under my foot. Dr. indicated that this was severe bunion condition that should have been handled long ago. As I had no pain until now I had not had interest in an operation for cosmetic purposes. He did not look closely at my foot and gave me pads to put between my toes and gave me the impression it was too late. Two weeks later an accupuncturist diagnosed it as a corn under my foot. Sold me a plaster for $5 and 2 weeks later pain was gone. Cannot recommend this doctor!!!

Dr. Walters is extremely personable and professional, and immediately put me at ease. He took the time to learn about my current condition and my goals. Turns out, I had a dislocated toe and a torn tendon. He educated me on the options and complexities of the surgery. Then, together, we made my action plan. I never felt rushed. He listened and answered all my questions. I a few months post-op and couldn't be happier. Dr. Walters is an excellent surgeon.
