    Everyone was courteous and professional. I did wait nearly 3/4 hour before the doctor saw me.

    I had the good fortune of having Dr. Walker scheduled and I had just been discharged. His gentle demeanor was caring and his professional advice was sound. Other physicians should take his lead.

    I have appreciated Dr Walker's care, in consultation and in the operating room. In both places, he has a light touch.
