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.

Outstanding Doctor
I visited Dr. Walker for recurring abdominal pain and discomfort and found him to be very caring and an attentive listener. His initial examination revealed no critical signs so we discussed IBS and he suggested a low-FODMAP diet to eliminate food sensitivities. I did an elimination diet and then added back individual foods to ID sensitivities, finding none of consequence. With the counsel of Dr. Walker and nurse practitioner Laurie Rosales I adjusted my diet to include more high-fiber foods (25-30g per day) and high-hydration, which completely resolved my pain issues after several weeks. I can't say enough about nurse practitioner Rosales who spent considerable time with me to discuss gut health and dietary decisions. Since I had not had a colonoscopy in 13 years, Dr. Walker performed one and found a polyp and no additional complications. I highly recommend both Dr. Walker and Laurie Rosales.

Colonoscopy
Nobody wants to have a colonoscopy, but Dr. Walker made it as pleasant as it could be. They were prompt, friendly, professional, and communicated extremely well with me. I was in and out of there in a couple of hours. I felt great afterwards also! The prep is not fun, but Dr. Walker can’t control that. The peace of mind I received after a positive report is priceless.

Professionalism, expertise, and kindness
I recently had a colonoscopy with Dr. Jon Walker and I cannot say enough positive things about my experience. From the moment I walked into his practice, I was greeted with warmth and kindness from the entire staff. Dr. Walker himself was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns before the procedure. During the colonoscopy, Dr. Walker and his team were incredibly gentle and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I was pleasantly surprised at how quick and painless the procedure was, and I attribute that to Dr. Walker's expertise and skill. After the procedure, Dr. Walker took the time to explain the results and answer any additional questions I had. I left feeling confident and reassured that my health was in good hands. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Jon Walker and his practice for anyone in need of a colonoscopy or other gastrointestinal procedures. His professionalism, expertise, and kindness truly set him apart

Dr. Walker is thorough and listened to my concern.
Dr. Walker took note of my past history of of gastrointestinal issues and my concerns now. When having questions, he answered quickly within the portal as well. Though, he never rushed me through any appointments and always told me to keep him posted.

Ohio Gastrology - Dr. Jon Walker
This was my initial visit. Dr Walker listens well, provides an assessment and information that helps a patient to both understand their condition and what treatment options might be most suitable. And just as importantly , he treats you like a person, not a number. A good blend of professional competency and humanity . Now that is my kind of a doctor.

Great Experience!
I had a routine colonoscopy with Dr. Jon Walker recently. My experience from start to finish was incredible. My nurses were the sweetest, and my anesthesiologist was very comforting! Dr. Walker was the nicest! All of them took their time to let me know exactly what was happening at every moment. I would highly recommend this group to anyone! The prep was disgusting, but the service I received was amazing! Thank you for making my experience so great!
