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.

I've been with Dr. Walters for close to 25 years. She has since moved locations and I travel 40 minutes to see her since she truly is the best. I know that I am in good hands with her as my Doctor. She always takes the time to go over my history and current medical history and she always makes sure to be follow up if any testing is done. I can't see myself having anyone else as my Dr.

The best
Dr. Walters has been my doctor for many years. She really listens, never rushes and is proactive and takes everything you tell her seriously. I am moving too far away to stay with her and I know I’ll never find another doctor like her.

My wife Sara & I have had the privilege of having Dr. Lisa Walters as our family physician for over 15 years. She is competent, kind, empathetic, totally serious about her calling, ... and funny! You (almost) want to be sick to get some “Ell-Dubbya Time” in!

I've been a patient with Dr. Walters since 2007. She is caring and takes her time with every patient. She returns phone calls, even late at night when the situation warrants it. I would never switch physicians from her.

Dr. Walters is an excellent doctor with a wonderful bedside manner. She truly cares about her patients. This is the only reason I put up with the extremely long wait time and the unfriendly front office staff.

Dr Walters is thorough and easy to get along with. I highly recommend her although the office is more difficult to deal with since pro health took over!

Dr. Walters is wonderful. Kind and compassionate. She listens to everything and never rushes you. She has helped me and my family physically as well as emotionally. We're lucky to have her in our lives. Unfortunately, the staff leaves a lot to be desired. They are cold, unfriendly and you are made to feel that you're bothering them.

The waiting time is this office is ridiculous. They have no value for your time. Went for a 12:30 appointment and was seen at 2:15 pm. Never fails every time!! Staff in front are unfriendly. Dr Walters is awesome but life is too short to waste 2 hrs of my time for every appointment.

Dr Walters is an exceptionally caring person. She is dedicated to her patients. She is not an alarmist which is perfect for me. She will take the time to listen. She truly cares for her patients. She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed during examinations. I trust her implicitly. I have quarterly checkups and therefore I see her a great deal. Thank goodness she has been our doctor!
