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.

Very professional, kind, and personal.

Great, professional doctor
Dr. Walker is absolutely great to work with. In all of my appointments I’ve had with him, he has approached my healthcare with the utmost respect, professionalism, and care. He listens to my concerns and takes them seriously, providing options for routes of care or helping to explain what he thinks. He is also really great at recognizing progress on personal medical milestones and encouraging you to keep up the hard work. So far, my experience has been nothing but positive and I am very happy in working with him.
