Dr Walker and her office are top-notch offering quick response rates to MyChart requests and offering holistic advice and options for complete well-being. [...]. She shared the continual training the UR gives to prevent and help doctors help their patients with this. She is logical and caring. She even left the room to go see a patient and came back to spend more time with me. Her determination to take this stuff down was something I needed to hear. I'm lucky I stumbled on her taking new patients a couple of years ago. She desires to be recognized.

Time management and preparation. I appreciate Dr. Walker, she is very nice and highly personable, however on this visit she was rushed, and seemed distracted and detached from me and my health care. I realize it's hard when I only see her annually, but I do expect her to review my file and have an in-depth conversation with me about my health at least for 15-20min. My appointment was quick, disorganized, our conversation was scattered, and overall it made me feel unimportant.
