He was very professional and provided me with information about my contacts that no other Optometrist has ever taken the time to give me.

Very professional. Gave me the pros and cons about decisions I was thinking about - but I didn't feel pressured to go a certain way (unlike with previous doctors I have seen).
Plus he provided scientific info in layman's terms which I feel is a plus so that patients can understand the "whys" behind why our eyes do what they do.

Dr. Walker is by far the best eye Dr I have ever visited. I highly recommend him to everyone. He's nice, professional and makes you feel comfortable. I love the ambiance and the staff, they complement him well. He even makes sure to read you file before he comes in so that he can make it a more personable experience and talk about things in your life, not just your eyes.
